My wedding ring simply indicates I have chosen to Love, honor, charish, 
and forsake all others, which rules out any intimate relationships with
MOTSS I meet. It does not rule out friendships. This isn't true of every
one I know who is married, but I have found I can win a womans friendship
more easily if she knows I am married and faithful and not looking for 
a sexual relationsip. So yes, it reduces pickups that might result in
more intimate activities later, but increases the actual number of people
I can meet and talk comfortably to. I happen to like the results.
