It's no secret that wedding rings are a symbol that a person already has a soul mate. An engagement ring is considered a confirmation of marital status, but today some women increasingly prefer to leave a symbol of conjugal love and fidelity somewhere at home in a box.
The history of the tradition of wearing a wedding ring
When preparing for a wedding, people choose their wedding rings, but few of them seriously thought about where this tradition came from. It turns out that it is rooted deeply in the past and is shrouded in all kinds of romantic legends.
According to many historians, it originated in Ancient Egypt, where noble women wore rings made of gold and silver, and less rich ones made of clay and glass.
In Rome, wedding rings made in the form of a key were popular; men gave them to their wives as a sign that a woman would share all the sorrows and responsibilities of her husband. The very process of exchanging rings is permeated with the meaning that a piece of a loved one will always be there. Unfortunately, at present, wedding rings have remained only a tradition that has lost its original meaning. Some men and women do not want to wear this symbol of marital fidelity on their finger at all, considering such a sign a stupid and useless game.
Wedding rings are inconvenient
The refusal of men to constantly wear a wedding ring is understandable to many, but why the fair sex is increasingly refusing to wear it is not clear. Some women believe that wearing the ring constantly is harmful to health, since there are sensitive points on the hand that are closely associated with certain organs.
Wearing the ring for a long time can lead to health problems.
Some women do not wear a wedding ring for interviews, so they want to hide their age and the presence of children. Other women believe that wedding rings hinder further career advancement. It turns out that employers may think that a family man will not give 100% at work. Modern representatives of the fair sex want to be successful in their careers, because, in their opinion, being a housewife is not fashionable. They believe that housewives are unsuccessful, lazy, stupid and uninteresting women. That is why family values are relegated to the background, the time comes for selfish people who think only of themselves.
In addition, women have to do many different household chores. They do laundry, ironing, cleaning, cooking, washing dishes. Some girls claim that any rings on the finger interfere with the performance of certain tasks or may be damaged.
