Should men wear wedding rings? And, what about engagement rings? Women wear them-does this mean that men should agree to wear them too? I have always worn rings, but sometimes I will go out without them on. But, I can see how some men, who have never worn a ring, would not want to wear one after getting married. I also think if you trust someone it should not really matter whether your partner wants to wear a ring or not.
It was, in fact, during the second world war that the use of wedding rings by men became more common. (Note that men’s wedding rings and men’s wedding bands are interchangeable, both meaning the same thing.)
Which finger is the ring worn on, and why? Generally a man’s wedding band is worn on the ring finger, the same as for women. The ring finger, for those unmarried men not familiar with the concept, is the fourth finger of the left hand. This is considered to be the finger closest to the heart.
For those who are unsure if a ring will feel comfortable, purchase an inexpensive ring and try it on for a week or so. It will most likely feel uncomfortable and strange at first, but as the week goes on, it will feel more natural. Look for rings that have a “comfort fit” design (rounded edges that prevent the ring from cutting into your flesh.)
If you think of jewelry as something only for women and girls, fear not. Your ring need not be effeminate. Most men’s rings are simple wide bands that would never be confused with women’s jewelry. On the contrary, such a ring can add to the width and look of strength of your hands. Ask your jeweler to assist you with styles that will be the most flattering and tasteful worn on your particular hand.
