[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a feminist guy, this is a deal-breaker for me and I feel pity and mystification for my guy friends when I hear about them doing it -- some of them are shelling out literally [i]thousands of dollars[/i] for a ring that their partner isn't paying for half of. For these guys it's like the sexual revolution never happened. If your answer is 'yes, I totally would', is it because you don't consider yourself a feminist, or what?[/quote] Do you volunteer to work for $.89 cents on the dollar (it was $.59 cents when I started working)? Do you volunteer to pay more for your dry cleaning and other accessories? Women have to pay more and earn less. Do you wear a completely different outfit to work for three weeks? How much do you pay to get your hair cut? There are plenty of double standards still out there for which the women have the financial disadvantage. Having the man buy the engagement ring is one way to even the score. [/quote]
