I might get a lot of hate cause most people have some sort of jewelry on them (ear rings, rings, nose rings whatever) but this is my opinion about jewelry so sorry to hurt your fealings if you wear that stuff.
Jewelry, especially ear rings and rings are disgusting. My girlfriend knows about this and I am happy she doesn’t wear any sort of jewelery when I am around. I think optically those big ear rings that look like a hoolahoop dangeling back and forth make people look like they have absolutely no or very low income and come from poverty, some kind of Ghetto.
Every time I see someone with piercings they look infectd. I can only imagine what it smells like under the piercing near the hole when for example water can’t be dryed underneith. It’s gotta smell bad.
Honestly jewelry is just a huge downgrade anyone can waste their money on. Especially if it’s mostly 90% cheap China jewelry from those 5-20$ shops in a mall or from some kind of tourist place in any country.
I dislike jewelry, it might have to do with my phobia against metallic stuff but I will refuse to wear any sort of ring in my entire life. No I won’t wear a ring for a wedding.
Don’t care if people say germs don’t last on rings. If someone prepares the food I ordered with a ring on I could puke. I won’t eat it. The only disgusting thing that can top that off is when I order food and pay and the person touches my food with the hands without washing. This happens a lot in germany at some bakeries or butchers which is why I don’t buy food at some places anymore.
So in short: Jewelry = cheap Jewelry = disgusting Jewelry = makes one look like a clown
rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, toe-rings, anklets, armlets, charms, bangles, cuff links, hairpins, tie pins, chains, brooches, teeth grills, and the list goes on.
Thats all I have to say to this topic. I don’t think anyone can change my mind. Because for me nothing is worse than having to look at someone that wear jewelry. And yes, I sometimes can’t even look at people - especially if they have those dangeling ear rings. I rather look at the floor while talking with that person.
I dunno if this is actually an opinion as much as it is an expression of your phobia. Still, it’s definitely unpopular!
The distinction is fairly minor, but when the opinion arises from an irrational reaction rather than thought and observation, it’s kind of involuntary, which feels weird to call an opinion at all.
The opinion part here is the “low income and come from poverty, some kind of ghetto” section. Which is racist as fuck the way you wrote it, and you should be ashamed of yourself for that. A ghetto, by definition is a place where a disadvantaged ethnicity or ethnicities are segregated, so, whether you realize it or not, that makes what you said very shitty.
I would strongly urge you to scanning examine your thinking in that regard, or at least keep your racism to your damn self.
