I know someone who wore one since her sixteenth birthday before she got married almost two years ago.

It's a good idea in theory (remember that episode?) We just stay away from all jewelry. :D

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing. Do the married couples in your church not even wear wedding rings? That would be something I've never heard of before.

Wow! What's your guys' Biblical reasoning behind that? I really have never heard of that before. How will anyone know whether your parents are actually married? Whenever I see a couple in public without wedding rings I don't expect them to be married.

This is a perfectly valid question, but please direct it here so this thread does not go off topic.

I certainly understand their purpose but I always thought purity rings were weird... I mean you shouldn't need a physical item to show your moral views. ;)

For me it's more like a peer thing. People can ask about it and then it's a good opening.

And Top you aren't 16. :x

When I asked my mom if I could get one, she didn't even know they existed. I explained the ring and what it was for, and my mom said I could get it for my sixteenth birthday. So, I will wear on eventually.

I wear one. :) I find that it's not just a good opening to witness when people ask about it, but it is also a very good pervert deterrant where I live. :yes:
