| Umm no. I'm pretty sure the only reason he tells people that he's married is because they see he doesn't have a ring. If he had his ring on there wouldn'd be any questions. And how can a wedding ring make him feel gay? That's a symbol of ya'lls marriage. His answer just doesn't fly. |

| I wouldn't buy it! and why are you afraid to ask your husband that very valid question...ive heard of a zillion of reasons why men don't wear their wedding ring, but thats a first! |

| Now what are you going to do - tell him that all the girls on Yahoo think he's lying? Tell him the ring means a lot to you and that if he values your marriage, he'll put it back on. Then wait to see if he 'loses' it. |

| I have to agree somewhat with the above answer. Why should you be so afraid to ask - were you/are you worried that he isn't wearing it because he's being unfaithful? Let him know how it makes you feel if he doesn't wear it and get to the bottom of his feeling "gay" if he does. That has to be one of the dumbest responses I've ever heard for a man not wearing it. It's pretty masculine if you ask me as it shows the world that he has a woman that he is committed to. Not wearing it just shows he's available - to either men or women.I think he's hiding something. |

| I almost never wear my ring. I work with animals who like to bite at shiny things, so over the years I have grown accustomed to not wearing any jewelry. My husband doesn't care. Some people just don't like to wear jewelry. I don't see why you would jump to the conclusion that he's trying to cheat on you. |

| How long have you been married? I mean, guys do feel silly wearing jewlery. Some guys anyway.Its up to you. You know him best, not us. Do you believe him? Usually us women just KNOW when somethings wrong. So go with your gut.But if it is such a big deal to you for him to wear it, then just tell him nicley you'd like him to wear it whether he likes it or not lol |

| I didnt like wearing jewelry either and always felt gay with a ring on. But I got used to it and new it meant something to my wife when i wore it. If you feel insecure about it ask him if he will get a tattoo with you that symbolizes your love for each other something small but significant to you both. no names or intials though thats also gay |

| Doesn't sound like a valid reason to me. How old is this guy? 10? Adult men all over the globe wear wedding rings as a symbol of their marital status but it makes him feel gay? Allrighty then! Stop wearing your wedding ring too. Tell him it makes you feel gay too. |

| Not wearing a ring is not a sign of trying to appear unmarried. I have found that personally I have been hit on more often while wearing it than without. I always wear it unless I`m going somewhere with the guys (which is rare) in which case I sometimes remove it. Some women love what they can`t have.(NSA)As to your husbands` comment about feeling gay - He needs to resolve his issues with his feelings towards the usage of the word , and needs to show you respect by wearing it at least while he is with you, he seems to care what other people think so if he wears it with you, people will see that he`s married and this will gradually make him feel more comfortable to wear it even when you`re not around. |

| My wife thought the world of her wedding, and engagement rings and I also wore one. I saw a man one day whose ring was worn thin through handling rough material. He had trapped his hand, and the thin part of the ring had snapped and dug into his finger like a hook, to get it out, someone cut it with a hacksaw. There was always a chance of this happening to me, so I never wore mine again, but my wife never thought it a big deal. |

| If he thinks it looks gay then he isn't sure about his masculinity because he is probably gay. |

| Sounds like he is either cheating or wants women to think he is not married. I doubt he has been telling everyone he is married. Start doing your investigating now. |

| All right, I won't lie, I don't really like wearing jewelry either, unless my watch counts. But I wouldn't take my wedding ring off, 'cause that was what bound me and my wife together and all. I have to take it off in situations, but I like having it there. Sometimes I even forget to take it and leave it on the bedside table. :] I've never thought of it as gay as such, jewelry just irritates me, and I'm always twisting it around my fingers.My brother and his wife stopped wearing their weddings rings, but that was just something that happened after time. So investigate it further, perhaps?To conclude, just check that he hasn't lost it and pulled an excuse out of the bag. |

| VALID. If he hates jewelry in general. Mine got kind of bent, so I took it off about 6 or so year ago, and then it got lost, and I haven't worn one since. I HATE jewelry -- even watches. I'm rather a guy's guy, too, and can agree that it's a little soft when a guy has a fancy wedding ring. It also made me feel much less inhibited when flirting with younger women, but that's a whole another story. |
