    For those of us who are general service providers, ring removal is
    always attended by anxiety and dread by the person with the "stuck"
    ring. I always have to calm the person down and explain that it is
    not a painful procedure.......but, even so, the "victim" is seldom
    convinced. Now, if I were to suggest to some little old lady that she
    should put her hand in a vise while I tightened it, I think there
    might be a good chance of her having a heart attack at the thought of
    it ! On the other hand, if some macho dude wants to wear a tungsten
    carbide ring as an attention getter, let him go for it......he might
    even "get it off" on being macho enough to put his hand in a vise ! (
    Especially if he had an audience ) Otherwise, it is certainly
    irrelevant what people wear as adornment....to each his own.
