And people of both sexes need to accept that not everyone is going to be interested in them. Men do that too. Just because you're attracted to someone doesn't mean they're attracted to you.

To make a long story short... At the beginning of the year a new instructor was hired at one of the campuses. Apparently she took a shine to me and badgered me at times to go have a drink/dinner or whatever activity with her. After the first few rejections, she sought the help of her coworkers in which she was informed I was married. Well this didn't go over well and she has now proposed a change to the employee handbook that married personnel should wear their wedding rings/bands to avoid confusion and is trying to garner support for this change, so far no one has signed on. She said if she knew I was married she would have dropped the pursuit and avoided embarrassing herself.
Since I work with my hands and I am around electronics/electricity, I don't wear my ring for obvious reasons, in fact I haven't worn it since the day I got married.
Even if I were single I still would have said NO, as she isn't even close to being my type and in no way could I ever see myself being romantically involved with her, friends; yes, lovers; hell no.
So this begs the following questions. Is a person owed a further explanation to a response of "NO", "Naw, I'm good" and "I'm not interested"?
Why does it matter if a person is married or not, shouldn't no mean no?
If the roles were reversed wouldn't holy hell rain down on the guy?
Why do some women think they are entitled to a man's attention/time and NO just isn't an acceptable answer?
IMO, no is all the justification that is needed, I don't feel the need to explain myself as to why I said no, after all NO is a complete sentence.
Her embarrassment is all on her, as I share NO part in that.
When I am at work, I'm there to work, I've done the inter-office/coworker romance thing when I was younger and the majority of the time it never ends well, so I avoid it after learning it the hard way.

No, they shouldn’t be forced to wear their wedding bands. If you’re married and you get hit on, just state you’re married. If the person is taken aback, well that’s their problem. Not yours. Moving on.

Wait. Does this mean I should stop hitting on you?
