Men should only wear wedding rings.

Just like with earrings, whats the point? If your clothes are shite it's not gonna cover up for that fact. If a girl is gonna be hugely impressed with you because you have a hoop around your finger or in your ear what kind of air head is she gonna be?

If it's in a 'fashion show' it's likely not a classic style item. If you are a college student or a greaseball (pinky ring) then it's fine. If you are a normal man....only a wedding ring

The fact that you had to explain "not wedding ring" emphasizes how silly it would be

Rings on men other than wedding rings are kind of tacky and douchey.

Except, of course, on Spoo.
