Creative expression maybe? Not a fan either way.

@QB besides the comments people made about prostitution and drug dealer, the earrings are just dumb. and if we don’t stand for something, we’ll fall for anything. if misskl wants to customize a pair of her own “ratchet” earrings then that’s fine but in my opinion, for a renowned and popular designer like M.E. who has come so far to start selling these widely and exclusively, it’s kind of ridiculous, insulting, and tacky. and i’m sorry, i don’t want to be “ratchet” you shouldn’t want to “ratchet” either…. :(

People are putting way too much force into the word Ratchet … take it how you want too , its called having a sense of humor , its sarcasm , these earrings have noting to do with being a drug dealer or prostitution or what ever ignorance i was reading … and any one with that type of train of thought , is just insecure or is boring and doesn’t know how to be free… way too much thought into it , I like the earrings its a bold / funny / jokes on you statement…yup ill be “ratchet”
whether you like it or not every one has “RATCHET” ways

@jboogie When I say I applaud M.E. for her grind, meaning her story, drive and passion for her brand and being on top of her stuff. Clearly I don’t support this foolery and definitely would not “applaud drug dealers” for being on their grind. How foolish.

Whatever. I had my own “bourgie” door-knockers made in 2007 (http://ow.ly/h4olh) as a tongue-in-cheek kind of accessory. I don’t wear them everywhere but I have dragged them out on occasion. Generally well-received. I see these “ratchet” earrings in a similar light. I don’t read too much into it because it’s almost as though ratchet earrings are saying “hey, look at this. isn’t it kind of silly?”.

Ummm This is by far the most ridiculous piece of accessory I’ve ever seen . First, it’s the “B*TCH” necklace, pendants, and rings that are all over the place and now this??Also, I’m quite disappointed in M.E., it seems as if she has let popularity get to her head and she thinks that she can sell anything to anybody now…even her last collection has lost originality
