Rings
I was looking at a rather pretty diamond ring which a straight friend of mine had "liked" on Facebook and it got me to thinking about the wearing of rings within our community. Most times when I run into a likely lesbian wearing a ring - it's a plain silver or gold band on the left ring finger. When I was a teen I remember hearing that gay people wore the ring on the right ring finger instead, but I've never noticed this.
Anyway, out of curiosity - do you or have you worn a ring as a symbol of commitment to a significant other? If so, what factored into the choice of rings? My partner and I have matching silver bands with runes that say "hearts as one." She picked them out, and I love her choice. I do think diamonds are pretty, but the diamond trade is not. At some point we will probably upgrade our rings. As a femme, although I might enjoy a more sparkly ring, I do kind of like differentiating from straight women and I like that our rings match. What have you / do you / would you choose and why?
