We went to Vegas this weekend and the GF and I did some shopping. I’m not really a ring guy, but she talked me into buying this pinky-ring and I’m finding that I really like it.

I don’t see many guys wearing them, anyone here?

My Masonic ring was made to wear on my little finger. Had it for about 40 years and wear it very seldom.

Yeah, no. That's a big negatory from me.

I wear my wedding band and that's it. On very rare occasions I will wear my Academy ring on my right hand ring finger, but the pinky finger? No way.

But if you dig it, and especially if your GF digs it, then rock on.

I know a few.
Rare is the time I wear any ring, even my wedding band.
Some can pull it off. Im not one of those some.

Not I. My wedding ring sits in the safe because I end up losing it regularly working on stuff.

I think they are more of a "Bling" thing.
Years ago when I was in the car business there were guys that had them and i do think of them more in some types of areas and professions.
I'm more of a minimalist myself plus a work on things where rings and things could be a health hazard so they're a no go for me.

If it makes the thing between your ears feel good, why not?

You certainly aren’t a slave to the latest fads as you can confirm for yourself you don’t see many men wearing pinky rings.

But it does make me wonder where have all the pinky rings gone.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

My first thought as well. If you like the look and feel that's all that matters. Personally I can't stand jewelry of any kind on my person. I wore my wedding ring on my wedding night and not a day since. At the time I was a production line mechanic and would work on electrical panels so it was a no no anyhow that's why the wife allowed it. Then I explained to her that I couldn't stand wearing jewelry and asked her if she ever seen me with any on anywhere anytime in our four dating years.

I don't know how some of you guys walk around with these gigantic watches on. Would drive me out of my mind. If I'm driving my wallets in the console. I can't stand a key fob in my pocket for very long. My phone has to be in a cargo pocket otherwise it's not on me.

Carrying a gun is a challenge and don't always carry depending on where I'm going and for how long. Don't know how I developed the quirk if you will but it's always been that way with me.

There was a period of time in my misspent youth when I did wear a pinky ring. It was given to me by a groupie at an after tournament party. I wore it for about a year until another young lady put it on her finger. I never got it back but I figured I was done with both of them. *Hangs head in shame*
