Whenever I see a woman wearing rings on her thumb I have always wondered if that was for a particular purpose or if that is supposed to indicate something. Or is it just another finger to put it on?

I've run a poll on a site devoted to thumb rings to get the answer to this question. By far the most common answer from the folks who wear them is that it is a fashion statement. Many people says it makes them feel sexy. The vast minority who wear them do it because of his or her sexual orientation.
Interestingly, those who don't wear them but have responded to the poll by far think that thumb rings signify sexual orientation, but that doesn't bear out from the responses of those who wear them.
I think that at one time they may have been a sign of sexual orientation, but over time it has become a fashion statement. The same could be said about men wearing earrings. Once it was uncommon and usually done only by the gay community, and now they are worn by many people.
I haven't seen a single response where someone is wearing them for health reasons, although I am sure there are some who do.

Nope no magnitude. i understand some human being who wears em basically basically so as that they can make noises with them in college at the same time as bored and some circumstances throughs em at human beings... different then that they don't have any magnitude.
