@James ********
I haven't insulted anyone or any tradition, but you sound like the guy who paid way too much! But if you want to play the "tradition" card, it use to be evaluated by her age, level of education, if she is still a virgin, which back in the old days. Based on the picture, I think that ship is sailed. It looks like this guy is being pushed around, and I just gave my honest advice, so keep your passive agressive frustration for yourself.
