For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.My personal opinion is that jewellery on men is wrong - both my brothers used to wear earrings and I thought they looked awful. The only bling a man should wear is a good quality wristwatch (and possibly a wedding band, if so inclined).
That is my personal opinion, but I agree with Buddy & Co - if you want to wear that stuff and feel comfortable, go ahead. I'll be laughing at you from behind my beer.
It depends how visible it is. People wear jewellery for different reasons. If worn as a token, then it matters to you, you dont have to show it off to others. There are probably many men around wearing a chain, possibly even with a crucifix, but most, if not all, is hidden from the casual viewer. Likewise with watches. In Britain, most people wear long sleeves (I think it is something to do with our climate!) and a watch will seldom be seen. A wedding ring or suchlike is usually fairly inconspicuous as well.
In my personal opinion, as a member of the older generation, excessive or obvious jewellery is not a sign of homosexuality, but more a sign of a personality disorder (maybe that's too strong a word) where the wearer is saying "Look at me". That may be because they crave attention or because they want to display their wealth. I've never understood why some men pay thousands of pounds for a watch when one costing well under �100 is equally as accurate, robust and suitable.
This may be a generation thing, and youngsters today may see things differently.
