Depends on how big the piece is.
There's always someone out there that is going to judge someone for wearing an earring. Don't worry about it.
The answer will depend on what the 12 mm measures. If the object is 12 mm in diameter, it is 37.7 mm around.
There are several disadvantages to wearing big earrings. They can easily get snagged on tops or sweaters, and can become entangled in one's hair. If the earring is particularly heavy, long-term use can result in stretching the earring hole downward permanently.
It's done because it's a personal sense of style. SOme people find it more "cool" to do it that way, others don't.
