Comment on Are Diamond Engagement Rings Really Worth It? by Cheryl

Out of the solutions suggested, I favor “Two Rings” solution. It eliminates double standards but keeps the tradition going.

Two things I consider extremely sexist are engagement rings and name change. I didn’t do any of those two things when I got married. Those are traditions from the times when a woman was considered a man’s property. How obsolete! And also, the name change is an american custom that is not followed in some other countries, like mine.

Comment on Happy 196th Birthday Elizabeth Cady Stanton! by Luara

I think women’s history and our stugrgle for a parity with men should be taught to every schoolchild throughout the country elementary through high school. It is a critical albeit unsung chapter of our nation’s history and it’s about time that both boys and girls learn from the lessons of the past.Although I’ve done quite a bit of research on the topic myself (I find it fascinating), I never heard of Sybil Luddington a woman of great historical importance. Had I not read your important and engaging book, I’d never have known about her. As women claim our power more and more, HERstory needs to spread far and wide. Far too many of the young women of today, haven’t a clue.

“well, in that case I’m quite sure I will never get married then” as in [you've got to do it yresoulf to get it done correctly kind a gir] not really true but that’s what I felt reading it. I dunno, maybe we’re just too progressive and don’t understand that everyone else want the world to stay the same as the last hundred/thousand years /bitter woman without a ring who still thinks we can change the world, maybe if we have a lot of money and wack out all those mindless tv reality shows with “winner gets a RING and a husband to take care of you”
