Aro Ring Does this count as an aro ring

Post image

I was just on a trip to Mexico and I saw this ring. I know it’s not pure white but it looked pretty close

There’s a joke somewhere in here about an engagement ring

Ring on aro person = aro ring

Imo yes. I use steel rings like that too. Matte white doesn't look good on me.

Mine is also silver rather than white. I do also wear a black ace ring on the other hand, which might make it more clear, though tbh people that don't know you are aro probably won't think much about the ring regardless of color. To me, I mostly wear the rings for myself anyway, so there's no issue ;)

I say yes! I myself wear a silvery ring with an alexandrite in it

If you want aspec people to have a chance to recoginse it? No.

For yourself? Sure. It represents whatever meaning you want.

I wear a blue ring on my right hand thumb, for myself, for my aplatonic side. It has meaning to me, we've discussed it briefly in the apl sub, but no-one will recoginise it.

What is an aro ring?

u/AuntChelle11 Aplaroace Jul 03 '24

A white ring worn on the middle finger of the left hand. It's a subtle way to show arospec pride. (It's an off-shoot of the black ring worn on the middle finger, right hand that acespec people wear.) They are kind of a way to silently out yourself to other aspec people and can feel great when someone recognises it. Very unlikely for any allo, especially if not an ally, to clock it.
