The anti-wedding fairy.
That is it. I have had it. I am officially resigning my female membership card.
I know I won’t be popular with my gender for saying this but women have very silly notions and very silly values. Why spend time, energy, and money for their wedding (a few hours of one day) instead of using that same time, energy and money to better their home, their marriage, or something lasting?
Additionally, they want an excessively priced ring with a rock to stick on their fingers so they can show it off to the rest of the herd.
1. This is not a good way to start any relationship. It sets a precedence of imbalance. To me this says, “My happiness is more important than my partner’s happiness. He HAS to buy me a ring to signify he cares about me, but I will not nor do I care to buy him a gift in return.”
2. Diamonds are a sham. They’re value has been over-exaggerated by the DeBeers, the International Diamond Cartel.
3. Do you have any idea what else I could do with that money? Custom leathers, bike trailer, slip on exhaust. I mean, come on!
I just wasted another hour of my life in a stupid bridal shop trying on another hideous dress which can be best described as a trailer trash prom dress. It is of course WAY overpriced and trust me when I say I'll never wear it again. I would rather take that $300+ and invest it into their home or their daughter so they actually have something to show for the money rather than a handful of pictures where they can prove they duped some of their closest friends into paying exorbitant amounts of money for matching outfits.
$ for bridesmaid dress
$ for matching shoes
$ for stupid hairdo
$ for hosting bridal shower
$ for bridal shower present
$ for wedding present
= I’m not really sure I want a friend that would ask this of me.
Then there’s wasted time of my life…
…trying on dresses.
…helping her pick her dress.
…bachelorette party.
…bridal shower.
…rehearsal dinner.
…wedding day preparations.
…wedding day.
The worst part is I'm the one marked as a traitor for thinking that they're ridiculous for wanting this crap! We've been conditioned since we could walk by others in the cult to conform this is a good way to measure a man's love!
Rant over.
