The Man Jewelry Difficulty Scale

Face it fellas. Unlike many a male in the animal kingdom, those of us Homo Sapiens with a Y chromosome are expected to keep our personal-bling-level pretty low.  And most of us don’t even bother with anything more than a wedding ring & watch.  But some men push it further.  In general, the less functional and more purely decorative a piece gets, the more difficult it is to be taken seriously as a man while wearing it.  There are, of course, exceptions.  What works on some won’t work on all.  The scale below moves from easiest to hardest to pull off.  Additions and feedback go in the comments.  Above: one of the greatest photos ever taken in the White House.
