matman Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Is a pinky ring on a man okay? Looks kinda good I think but some people seem to think it conveys some meaning? Why can't it just be a ring on a little finger? Link to comment
shes2smart Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Ring? He was wearing a ring? Huh. Point being - some people won't notice because they don't really care about jewelry/accessories. I think the most important thing when it comes to accessories is how the wearer feels about it. If you like the way a pinky ring looks on you, wear one. If not, don't. Link to comment
annie24 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 i personally don't like how pinky rings look on men. that's my take. but in any case, who cares - if you like it, wear it. it's not a deal-breaker for me by any means. Link to comment

How come? If it doesn't look good on the little finger then how will it look any better on middle, index, or thumb? Link to comment
PsychGirly Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I don't care for it, but it's not weird to me by any means. I just don't like rings on men in general, unless it's a wedding ring or something. I'm not too into the blingy ones lol Link to comment
matman Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 I don't think a ring has to be bling, just some plain silvery type ring with a small pattern, no massive design hanging off it. On another subject, anyone buy into the whole connection to the brain thing about wearing rings. Pinky is supposed to stimulate the area of your brain for communication. Weird idea but possible I suppose. Link to comment
PsychGirly Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Hm...sounds interesting but I doubt it. They also say that the reason we wear our wedding ring on our left ring-finger is because there's a vein or nerves or something in that finger that lead directly to the heart *puzzled* lol Link to comment
matman Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 Actually, that is supposedly true, it's the only finger with a vein in it isn't it? Vena amoris thought up by the Romans or something... There is supposed to be a school of thought about your toes and fingers being the nerve endings and is used for some people to get rid of bad thoughts. Hmm. Link to comment

And if it is true, do I believe that it's somehow directly correlated to "til death do us part"? Haha, neverr...:splat: Link to comment
Imprecision Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Men should wear rings more often. It adds a graceful touch. If you look messy and unkempt, then a ring introduces a powerful ambiguity - the possbility of class and elegance, despite the rough exterior. By itself, a rough exterior conveys a lack of polish. But with the ring, a rough exterior conveys a sense of raw power. If your clothes are neat - perhaps clean, crisp colours - then a ring will tie together the entire effect of your clothes, lifting your outfit from mediocrity into grace. Furthermore, it's always fun to design your ring with sigils and magical symbols. But for this, you need to know a jeweler. Then she can make stuff for you cheaply. Link to comment
whes Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 The pinky is where engineers wear their rings, so why not? ...if they happen to live in Canada, anyway. It's called the Iron ring. Link to comment
ghost69 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 i wear rings. not 24/7, just when i go out. not on my pinky though. Link to comment
jenny_mcs Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I don't like any jewelry (except wedding rings or watches) on men. I don't know why- just a turn-off. Link to comment
ghost69 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 i get compliments on my rings all the time. my watch is nice too. Link to comment

Alezia Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I have the iron ring (on the pinky finger) and thought it looked kind of crazy at first but I got used to it. It's not so bad. I know tons of guys with it and although it was a bit weird at first (i admit), it looks totally fine to me now. I don't even look twice. Link to comment

Alezia Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I guess it may depend where you are from... I don't associate with mob ties... Not everyone has the same education about the iron ring etc... and so may very well associate it with mob ties here =| Link to comment
