    I don't really wear rings myself but was thinking the other night. There are some rings that you generally always keep on (such as your wedding ring) and might be pretty stuck on, but diamonds are one of the strongest things out there.

    I don't mind if no one posts in this thread. It's a personal enough thing but please poll it to satisfy my question!

    (I had a look at the charter, and it didn't say anything against posting such a thread but if it's in the wrong area I'm sorry and please move it!)

    Are you asking if people take their engagement / wedding rings off to cheat?

    I assumed it meant "when you have sex"
    but it's a bit vague

    Oh well, I can't stand wearing rings or bracelets anyway...

    No sorry! Sex yes. Just not being a very regular poster on LL I didn't want to put sex in the title when I wasn't 100% of the rules. I'll change it if that's ok.

    Dammit! The way I have it makes it sound awful...

    I don't know how to edit the poll

    I got confused, cos for one, I'd take them off, and for the other, I'd leave them on.. :pac:

    Just kidding, I never take off my ring.

    Don't wear rings but always remove my watch.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    The OP probably means if people are wearing big mad chunky rings that could be scratchy. I'd imagine you could inflict some injuries if you wore as many rings as Mary Kate Olsen, for example:

    I wear a ring on both my index fingers, but they're not raised at all. I never take them off, nor my watch, nor any other jewellery I'm wearing.

    I don't wear rings, even when I get my engagement ring, and my wedding ring, wont wear them, might put them on a chain and wear them around my neck... or on my fingers for special occasions. Because I'm an obsessive "fiddler", I drive people mental when I have rings on, constantly taking them off and having them fly out of my hand, twisting them round and round, putting it on every finger, worst of the lot is tapping it against a glass or table or the hand rail on the bus, anything I cap tap it off. I wore one ring for seven years and I never stopped. I lost it and my friends rejoiced.

    I take off my ring at night because it has sort of pokey out bits and I am a clutz and would probably scratch my face while sleeping and such...

    I have only ever had one ring in my life that has fit my skinny fingers and that's my engagement ring. It never ever comes off because I'm a loser of things. The diamond and setting in my ring were my fiance's mother's. She is sadly no longer with us, I'd never forgive myself if I lost it.

    My watch does come off though because it can catch on skin and that's a big mood ruiner!

    Ya pretty much any ring that can stick out, like an engagement ring.

    I don't know. I never wear rings, nor am I engaged/married. It was just one of those questions that popped into my head one night and didn't particularly want to ask my mother

    Thanks for the answers though!

    I don't mind my OH leaving her jewelry on but I find the stop watch a bit disconcerting. :o

    I'm ambidextrous and both my wedding and engagement rings are flush so it wouldn't really be an issue anyway...I usually take off clothes and watch tho. :)

    I rarely wear rings but I would. I know someone who's rings severely damaged someone's manhood...

    Yeah I thought you meant from a safety point of view. I guess if they were loose or sharp, they could do some damage. But I guess they don't cause too much damage or we'd be hearing more safety warnings to take off all jewellery to practise "safe" sex :P

    Who are you watching ?:p

    What a funny thread. Op if you asked do you take your panties of when you are having sex it would make sense but rings are not going to get in the way.

    I don’t mind wearing it and would probably forget to take it off. I doubt if I can still think that I’m wearing my diamond engagement ring or my diamond wedding band during sex.
    No worries, I’ll tell you next time when I’m hooked up and about to get laid. LOL =)
