For the ladies.. "Why aren't you married?"

Very true. Also, men (especially in my parents' generation) frequently don't wear wedding rings. And in some professions, it can be dangerous to wear jewelry on your hands or wrists.

And.... sometimes unmarried women will wear a ring just to avoid getting hit on by skeezy men in bars. (Edited to add: A fake wedding ring might also stop strangers from asking you why you aren't married. Hmmmm... )
