Random question for guys.

[pressingon17]

Hey guys,
just a random question,but am I the only guy who where's a purity ring?I don't where it on my wedding ring finger but on a chain around my neck.It's a lot better that way so you don't have people always asking you if your married.

Just wondering.

it's just a ring that says something like "true love waits" or "vow of purity".
Basically saying your going to stay pure till marrage.

 

[powermadd400ex]

a lot of times it just becomes a social status symbol or something, so i just keep it to myself (not saying you are like that its just society)

I don't, but I think it's a good idea to have one and show it to your wife when you get married to show that you stayed pure for her.

 

[solarwave]

I dont. I think its more or an american thing?

 

[Mela Monkey]

I don't wear one

 

[Stjernkvist]

no i don't wear one. But i will (hopefully tomorrow) buy a ring to remind me of a promise I have in God. (I made the promise maybe a month ago, but never had the cash to buy a ring xD)

 

[RobertMerton]

maybe i should buy one =D

i need an excuse to trial a tungsten carbide ring for marriage

Well, there is something called the Silver Ring Thing that I think is an American thing, but I don't think that the idea of having a symbol of keeping yourself pure until marriage has to be isolated to the US. How about introducing it outside of the US?

Just wondering,if I was alone or not,I'm the only guy I know who does so ya.

I tried it once, but my Dad looked at me like I was gay. So since then i've thrown it away

 

[Kellen]

Never seen one on a guy.

 

[EyesOfKohl]

I've never seen one :/ I've only seen the 'Tzitzit' (Blue threads) which Jew's wear on the corners of their Tallit to remind them of Moses' commandments.

 

[branchofthevine]

nah, I don't wear any purity ring. I would rather God make me pure on the inside so that I won't lust after women with my eyes, or in any other way.

 

[Bellamuerte]

I don't but it would be cool to get one. Perhaps I should.
