Is stainless steel earrings more effective to cause a ear infection then gold earrings?

Are stainless steel earrings ........ - you say are because the Word 'earrings' means more than one.

I think stainless steel is not more likely to cause infection than gold. If both kinds are clean at the start and kept clean there should be not trouble.

Some people have a reaction to cheap 'gold' earrings.
