Many asexuals wear a black ring on the middle finger of their right hand. The material and exact design of the ring are not important as long as it is mostly black. The black ring on the right hand can be a sign of people who identify as [swingers]. However the some parts of the swinger community has taken care to encourage people to not wear the black ring on the middle finger out of respect of the asexual community.

The origin of the black acce ring symbol can be found in this thread started in 2005.

Your right middle means "currently single", the right ring means "currently taken" and since the left ring means "taken/married" in a permanent sense, then the next logical conclusion would be that left middle means "permanently single".
