By James Francis Kelley

They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but who says they can’t be a guy’s, too? These days, more and more queer couples are ditching the basic commitment band and going for something a little more sparkly when popping the question. Out Magazine’s Phillip Picardi recently showed off his gold open engagement ring, which featured two small diamonds on each side. “I love this idea of there being two diamonds instead of one, as we tried to resist the notion that a couple is a unit and that we are one person,” he said of his ring. And if your significant other isn’t into bling, there are still plenty of other options to explore, like a gold signet design or perhaps something with black mother of pearl? Below, ten male engagement ring ideas to consider.
