I don't get. There were earrings back in the day. Men wore them too. But I guess it depends on the culture of who wore them.
It doesn't make any accurate historical sense, but I've gotten used to men wearing earrings just because my part of the neighborhood is full of fuccbois
It's actually more accurate. Back then men wore earrings especially the royals.

The Catholic Church forbade the wearing of earrings since it deemed them as objects that spoil the perfect image of a man. In the Middle Ages, ear jewelry was spread only among pirates, gypsies, criminal personalities, and other underworld groups. So no royals would wear earrings, since only "crude" people wearing it.
That's one part of history. (●'◡'●)ﾉ but it doesn't erase the fact that it was a thing. It wouldn't have been banned in the first place if it weren't. Trends change.
Is it just me or is anyone else also bugged whenever there's a male character wearing earrings in a historical/fantasy setting? Cuz it's just weird, I don't know why? Like it's not chronologically or logically making any sense? Do you guys get it? Or is it just me who is weird??
