Are you kidding? I would have proudly married my husband with a cigar band. Why? Because he is freaking awesome. He’s the precious one; not some silly metal and jewel trinket.Dave, what are you expecting from this thread? These are piggington women you are addressing here. I know several women here share my detest for shopping, are not materialistic, live frugally, and are good with money. We’d buy our own damn ring if we wanted one. Clearly you don’t know your target audience.[/quote]
LOL. That’s the truth.
Besides, with the way the dollar is sucking, smart girls don’t want diamonds. Just propose w/a chunk of some gold. Giving new confirmation to gold-diggers. LOL.

ParticipantWell said, CBad.
As for me, my mother-in-law (big consumer-type who really likes fancy labels and thinks love is shown in the price tags of gifts) made my husband buy a ring and made us have a traditional wedding. I wanted to have a simple ring, and elope in Lake Tahoe so we could have a really inexpensive and simple wedding with close family members and a few friends each — then, we could go gambling afterward. 🙂
Personally, I wear a simple gold band with glass stones that once belonged to my grandmother. It’s maybe worth $50 on a good day.
Like the other female Piggs, I do not enjoy shopping at all, and manage the money in our family (have kept us out of debt all these years, and consistently made us money via our investments) while staying home to take care of our kids and home.
Maybe that’s why the female Piggs find your posts so offensive, dave. You’re generalizing based on the people **you** seem to associate with. That has nothing to do with how real, quality women behave. Most women are not gold-diggers.
Perhaps if you changed what **you** are looking for, you’d find there’s a great, big world filled with really decent women who might be looking for a partnership with someone they love. You’re chasing after really hot women who don’t want a committment. Of course you’re going to see a lot of gold-diggers (who try to “trick” men into getting them pregnant, too???). Why would you expect anything different? You get what you give.

I’m going to have to have my head examined after this because I am actually going to defend davelj here..
First off, I don’t want the Piggington women to take what I am saying badly. Right off the bat, I have to say that women, who don’t get into shopping and yield to all that merchandising crap, are actually a ‘pretty rare breed’ (don’t feel bad about it, it puts you in more rarefied company). This can be demonstrated that the merchandising effort targeting women still continues (men are targeted far less). Women, who are ‘gold diggers’ and those that are nearly so, don’t make it obvious when in good company (It would scare off the men and women friends of men would notify their guy friends to stay away from these women. It is also perceived as being in bad taste.). The truth only comes out after knowing someone for a while.
If you still think that there are many women such as the ‘Piggington’ women, remember your mother-in-law:
As for me, my mother-in-law (big consumer-type who really likes fancy labels and thinks love is shown in the price tags of gifts) made my husband buy a ring and made us have a traditional wedding.
that’s pretty close to home for it to be a rare occurrence.
This doesn’t mean that davelj doesn’t get misogynistic at times though..
