It turns out we have been wearing our earrings wrong our entire life

It seems so simple and yet, we've never thought to do this before ...

One woman has sent the internet into turmoil after pointing out that you can remove the plastic flaps that are on the back of earrings.

After my nineteen years of living i have now realized that you are supposed to take the plastic part off!

What will be discovered next?
