    Men in rome would have and wear more piercings than women

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In ancient Rome, it was common for men to have and wear more piercings than women. This was a cultural practice and a way for men to display their wealth, status, and masculinity. Men would often wear earrings, nose rings, and even multiple piercings on their ears. Women, on the other hand, would typically have fewer piercings and would focus more on adorning themselves with jewelry and accessories. This cultural difference in piercing practices between men and women in Rome supports the statement that men in Rome would have and wear more piercings than women.
