Why are men polishing their toenails black? What's that about?

Are they really!
I'm not..

Care to put this into context.

That amazed me so I looked it up and basically saw it is part of a trend. Men who paint their toenails use a variety of colors. To me, it is a bit off the grid, but then I do not paint my own toenails either.

Now some do paint their toenails black because of the "Goth" imfluence.

Who can tell? Next time you see a guy with black polished toenails, ask them. But I honestly think most of it is that is a trend now.
