I was wondering which hand does a guy wear a thumb ring on? Or does it make a diffence? Cause I know ear rings make a diffrence.

Thanks for any assistance.
Have a great weekend, kids,

Obviously I have been wearing  it on the wrong hand...
it keeps getting snagged in my pubic hair!

This question is probably best served for Esquire or GQ, but I conducted some quick research and found out some interesting tidbits (at least to me). Although there is a jewelry myth that suggests that if you wear a thumb ring on your right hand you are gay, apparently today's teenagers laugh it off as being silly. So wear at your own risk, but in medieval times, rings worn on the left hand were strictly for adornment, whereas the right hand was reserved for marriage rings.

Apparently in the 1500s, wearing a thumb ring meant that you were some sort of medical practitioner. Rings worn on the index finger meant you were a merchant or some sort of salesman. Rings on the middle finger denoted you as a fool. A ring on what we call the ring finger meant you were a student. Oddly, the pinky ring was meant for lovers and announced that you were happily involved with someone.

I hope that helps. I wonder what it means if you have only your left nipple pierced.

and then let people wonder LOL

If you Google "thumb ring" and "gay" together, you'll get a lot of interesting hits, but no clear answer.  Wear what you what, where you want, and let your actions tell people what you are!  

For instance, I can deliver a cup of coffee in each hand, and still carry a dozen donuts on my "thumb."  How?  Because I'm the Lovemaster, Baby!  I've got a ring I like to wear, but only one "thumb" that it fits, if you know what I mean!  Yeah, Baby.  In fact, I'm feelin' a little childish...any ladies want to suck my "thumb"?  Yeah, Baby.  My thumb can tickle your belly button...from the inside!  Oh Yeah!!  Actually, I'm just kidding.  My thumb's only 2 inches...FROM THE GROUND!  Yeah, baby.  That's why they call me THE LOVEMASTER.
