Re: Weird culture trends that you don't get.
(Anonymous) 2024-08-18 02:19 am (UTC)(link)I admit I proposed to my husband to avoid getting an engagement ring. That reminds me of a secret I should submit, actually....

(Anonymous) 2024-08-18 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)See, if my husband wanted to buy one, I would have insisted that he not. Along with my personal values not aligning with many practices in the diamond business, I work with my hands a fair amount. A diamond ring (or really any ring with a big stone) would make that more challenging. I'd end up not wearing it a lot, so it seems pointless for him to have bought me something that's essentially a display piece. Plus, even $200 could go to something like travel.

(Anonymous) 2024-08-18 09:46 pm (UTC)(link)Eh, the value that bothers me the most is the artificial price inflation perpetuated by the de Beers company. Plus, diamonds are more common than the minerals used in lithium-ion batteries.

(Anonymous) 2024-08-18 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)But at least you're Not Like Other Girls and didn't want a ring. Pat yourself on the back for that one, you big ol' feminist, you.
