[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn’t it sad that OP is so emotionally tied up in the idea that engagements should be inherently about a gender power imbalance? Isn’t it great that ops sister and her husband were equal partners in their decision to get married? Op get a life. [/quote] I’m surprised it took 3 pages to get here; this was my reaction. The woman waiting for a man to ask, and give her something of value as essentially a contract, is deeply gendered. That doesn’t mean the marriage necessarily follows that way, but read the millions of threads here about women feeling like they dont have equal partners… so I respect any couple that starts out of the gate eschewing that symbolism.[/quote]
