Engagement rings have long been a symbol of commitment in marriage, traditionally worn by women as a visible sign of their upcoming union to their partners. However, in recent years, there has been a notable increase in men also choosing to wear engagement rings.

Why Haven’t Men Historically Worn Engagement Rings?

In ancient times, rings were used to signify a man’s intention to marry. Over time, this custom evolved, with men typically taking on the role of proposers rather than recipients. The tradition of men presenting engagement rings to women became deeply ingrained, leading to the perception that engagement rings were primarily for women. 

So, Do Men Wear Engagement Rings?

Wearing an engagement ring is a personal decision, and individuals can choose how to symbolize their love and commitment in ways that resonate with them and their partners. There is growing popularity of men wearing engagement rings as a symbol of their commitment to their partners and their intent to marry.  

In tandem, new traditions—like the partner proposing to them, or the couple selecting two engagement rings together after the initial proposal—are becoming more common. While men typically wear their engagement rings on their left-hand ring finger, mirroring the practice for women, some may choose to wear their rings on the right hand depending on personal preference or cultural influences. 

It’s important to note that the rise of men’s engagement rings does not diminish the significance of exchanging wedding rings during marriage ceremonies. Many men who wear engagement rings also exchange wedding bands with their partners, either by transitioning the engagement ring to the right hand or acquiring a new wedding ring.
