My cousin showed up at Sunday dinner one time with an earring. My grandfather said, "Let me get a closer look at that earring, Greg." My cousin leaned in for Papaw to get a better look. My grandfather grabbed the earring and yanked it out of his ear and said, "No grandson of mine will wear women's jewelry." Greg has never worn one since, and no other male in our family ever showed up with one until after my grandfather passed away.
