Why do you say a ring is not practical?
A pin wouldn't be my first choice, but if it looks "sober" enough, I could go for it. Although I don't know if I could make the habit of taking the time to pin it.
I don't think that rings are good for blood flow in the finger. Espeically one's big enough to display a logo.
Most women I know wear at least one ring, often more. Their fingers haven't fallen off and don't look to be blood-starved. Most married men wear a ring. Their fingers look fine, too.
Whatever happened to looking for evidence?
Evidence should be relevant to the claim. The claim was "[not] good for blood flow in the finger". The original claim before that was that "[w]earing a ring is not particularly practical". None of these two claims seem to be anywhere close to to reality.

That's a strawman. I didn't claim that it makes finger fall off.
So what is it exactly that you are claiming?
Likely smaller range of effective movement. Woman wears a lot of rings just as they wear high heels that are also not ergonomic.
Seeking around I find studies that show that rings are very unhygenic for hospital stuff but not much investigation beyond that.
Umm... no.
Just like with the "blood flow", I think you're imagining things.
Rings are certainly inconvenient when you're doing some things with your hands, but it's not because they restrict the range of finger movement.
I just have this urge to say this, and I think I'll go ahead: that's what she said
