Before I moved I lived next door to a very lovely same-sex couple. Seriously they were the best neighbors ever and I miss them. Anyway she was public defender and she only wore her ring when she had to be in court because she wanted to seem relatable to her clients.
Sorry yours got lost. I don't mind the idea of wearing one - just that I wish it would hurry up and just become not unusual feeling. I have tried wearing it on my right hand and it feels less unusual there but I hit more stuff with it. I knew several women who wore rings when seeing clients regardless of orientation or marital status. One common ploy amongst clients was to try and hit on their female pd. A client once asked me why I always acted like a man because I didn't ask about his feelings (I did not do trial work and his feelings were completely irrelevant to my job).
