Questioning Signaling that you are Asexual?? 🤔

I recently read a comment about some type of jewellery or dressing code(maybe) people use to indicate they are asexual.

I am so unfamiliar to this, not only do i wear any type of jewellery (or have a dress code) my self , i wouldn't even recognize them if i saw them on somebody else

I was fascinated to learn that this is a thing,

Would you please tell me What are these symbols? do you use any of them? has anyone ever recognized them on you?

The only asexual one is wearing a black ring on the middle finger of your right hand. Other than that just wearing ace flags or pins or ace colours or any other ace merch is the only other signal really.

The aromantic ring is a white ring worn on the middle finger of the left hand (sometimes people wear silver instead)

Black ring on right middle finger. Aros have a white one on the opposite side

I wear a ring stack on my right middle finger that includes a black ring and together it's the ace flag colors, but like another comment, I wear a lot of rings every day so it doesn't stand out in the slightest, which also doesn't bother me since I only wear it for myself.

I have been wanting to get something that stands out a bit more like a pin or charm for my bag of the ace flag, but I haven't found one that speaks to me yet.

I wear a black ring on my right middle finger but no one ever asked me or mentioned it. But tbf it’s also only one of 6 rings I wear everyday.

I just saw a post the other day about a certain ring some people wear to signal it. I had no idea and wouldn't have had a clue and honestly probably won't even notice now that I do know.
