shmoel –
Men are prohibited from wearing a ring, as it is a female article of clothing.
Men are not prohibited from wearing a ring, since it is not a female article of clothing.
Secondly, Jewish men never wore rings througout history. Don’t try to be wiser than 3,000+ years of our zeidas.
Unless you’re talking b’davka about wedding bands, you’ve got quite an interesting version of history. Of course men wore rings, there are pesukim, mishnayos, and gemaras about men’s rings. Even if you’re talking about wedding rings b’davka, what shaychis being wiser? Maybe we shouldn’t filter our kids’ internet because hey, did the last 3,000+ years of our zeidas filter their kids’ internet? Are we wiser than them?
