answer:My uncle didn’t wear one because a) he hated jewelry and b) he’s a dentist and the hassle of having to put it on and take it off several times a day without loosing it was really a pain. My aunt didn’t care because she figured that if he cheated or not wasn’t really dependent on if he was wearing a ring or not. On the other hand, women are told from very young ages that the ring is Very Important. Receiving a ring will be a momentous occasion for us, and we will be proud to show it off, making all our girlfriends jealous. There’s an entire culture around The Ring for women, whereas for men it’s just kinda there, like q-tips and dishwasher detergent.
