It depends.
When the VGA socket I'm plugging the VGA cable has a screwing hole (for example, tower PCs as well as some HDMI-To-VGA adapters) , and I'm intending to let it plugged, I generally do screw them in, not entirely, but sufficiently to don't let it escape due to VGA cable's weight (especially if the cable has dozens of meters as well as those cilindrical magnetic thingies that reduces electromagnetic interference).
But one of my laptops have no screwing holes at the sides of the VGA socket so it's impossible to screw the VGA cable.
These sockets without any holes at all look and feel like they need these. These are mostly in notebooks where you do need to secure the connection, and it feels like whenever you put it in it is ready to go off at any second.
