What does it mean when a man wears a ring on his thumb, and does it matter which thumb?

It most likely means he's a hippie...or gay. Or both. Most likely a gay hippie.\n\nI take that back: Eric Clapton wears a thumb ring. It means he is Eric Clapton.\n\nNow that I think about it, if you wear a ring on your middle finger, it means you're gay. That's right. It's not your thumb, idgits.

Some people use wrist bands for extra stability when "punching" a guy, or blocking him with your arms in a shoving movtion. Usually, taping your wrists works better though. I dont know what you meant by finger, but guys would tape their fingers when they would jam them or hurt them in some other way. The most practical use for the wrist band was usually to wipe sweat, and to put one around the chin strap to make it more comfortable and prevent it from slipping off with sweat.

I like wearing my ring because I am proud to be married.  I am not interested in any other man but my husband.  Your are supposed to wear your wedding band on the bottom and your engagement ring on the top.  The wedding band is supposed to be close to your heart and so that is why it is on the bottom.

The engagement ring is traditionally worn on the left hand. Engagements rings are a tradition oraginally started in Italy (not to be confused with wedding rings, which are Egyptian), but in todays modern world you can wear it on either hand on any finger. My engagement ring is on my traditional third digit, left hand.\n\nBut remember, a lot of women don't get engagement rings (Princess Diana was given a necklace and earring set by Prince Charles for their engagement) they get other things. This can go from jewelry to gowns to any other "gift" a man is willing to shower on his affection. Some women don't even get anything for an engagement, but elect to put the money to better use, such as a house or even nicer wedding rings. \n\nMy engagement ring was actually my mother's (who is currently deceased) and my fiance hunted down my father (who I hadn't see in over 17 years) to get it or something else that belonged to my mother. It's a very cherished gift and we didn't have to spend a dime on it!

My wedding ring was placed on my right hand during the wedding by the priest.  In Orthodox and other Eastern Christian traditions the right hand is where the ring is worn.\n\nThis comes from the scriptural concept of the right hand being the power of God and the source of good works.  The poetry of the Psalms has dozens of examples, here's one:\n\nPsa. 108:6 \nThat Your beloved may be delivered,\nSave with Your right hand, and answer me! \n\nI was told that the western churches used to use the right hand as well but changed to the left some time after the middle ages.  I'm not sure why or where.\n\nSteve Puluka\nMasters Student, SS Cyril & Methodius Seminary\nCantor, Holy Ghost Church, Mckees Rocks PA\nhttp://www.puluka.com

I wasn't aware there was a ring code.  Most of the gay guys I know don't even wear rings.

Everyone has their own preference, it seems. Do you use your hands in your work? Are you an artist? Do you care for small children? Play the piano? These are the kinds of things you can think about when choosing your ring.\n\nI guess I would love a ring that someone selected for me. I was married a long time ago, and his grandmother gave me her ring. And, the other times I've been engaged I've usually helped with the selection process - next time, I want the guy to do all the thinking!\n\nWhat a fun decision you have ahead of you.

ohh thats a tough one. on one hand, you want to make sure you get the ring of your dreams, on the other, you don't want to be like HERE LOOK I WANT THIS! lol.. if i were you, i would talk about it with his sister or mother, or a mutual girlfriend.. who can casuuuually bring it up to him. if this is not an option, i would, again, casuuuually be looking at rings somewhere (in the mall, on TV, online) and nonchalontly be like, omg i looove this one! it's like, the perfect ring! hopefully, if he's the man for you, he'll get the hint :) but of course, you'll love him even if he throws a brass knuckle on your finger, right? :)

You can wear any rings on any finger you want. Some girls like it, some girls don't. They are just rings! Experiment, see which ones look best where and with what. I don't think the others have special meanings, but just like women guys can wear rings as much, and how often as they like. People say you shouldn't stuff them, it's your life! x
