I work from home for an IT company. About three or four times a year, I actually have to go to my office. It's three buildings packed full of computer geeks. I'm not particularly hot or anything like that, but as a geek girl, you tend to get more attention than you want. Particularly when people know you by name only. I've taken to wearing faux wedding rings any time I go into the office or go to a conference or have customer face to face meetings. It takes the pressure off. Everyone assumes you are married and leaves your personal life alone. Most faux wedding rings look over the top to me. This ring is actually something I wear even when I'm not trying to deflect Star Wars fans...I just switch hands. There is a very faint green hue to the main stone that generally isn't noticeable upon first blush. It has some weight to it too...very nice quality piece given it's price. I've sent the link to a couple of my female IT friends and they have reported the same change in response. Also great for preempting the jerks on public transportation. It's more effective that trying to read a book or listening to an ipod.
