Whats the going rate for a husband nowadays?

:k: completely agree with Jaanwar said. And as Psquared mentioned, doesn’t the guy feel it is an insult to his manhood by having his wife bring jehez with her? As a man, he is responsible for her. He can’t afford cutlery or a blender for her and has to rely on his wife’s parents?

Baree and Jehez are sooooo lame and actually turn out to be the cause of so much gossip. People get upset coz they didn’t get good quality outfits or their daughter in law didn’t bring enough kitchen appliances with her!! What the heck? Jehez really is like selling your daughter off. **I also read a thread in the Wedding forum where the in-laws get such expensive gifts and they give nothing to the girl’s family in return. How pathetic is that? Why must the girl’s family give expensive gifts to the guy’s family? Isn’t it enough they’re giving their most precious asset away, their daughter?

I am so glad my fiance and I are staunchly against all these practices! Even our parents are against it and think it’s a total waste of money.

I read that too, the sooner this cr*p dies out the better. Really wish ppl would make a stand against this type of behaviour..
