who'd have thunk
who'd have thunk? tom cruise and katie holmes? 42 and 26? it could be worse... well, whatever floats their boat.ok, my new theory on engagement rings. i'm the kind of girl that believes engagement rings have great symbolic meaning. i don't necessarily believe that a girl should have a rock the size of Australia or that the guy should follow the rule of thumb of buying a ring equivalent to 2 months salary. it's about what's best for the couple at that time. BUT, the other day i was trying to make my coworker feel better because he just spent a pretty sum on a large rock for his soon to be fiancé. anyway, my idea was that it was ok for him to spend that much because it's a balancing of the scales so to speak. a woman spends on average, let's say $15 a month on feminine products since oh, let's say 14 years old. by the time she is 30, she'll have spent $2,880 on such products and by the time she hits menopause at around 55**, she'll have spent $7,380. guys will never worry about such costs. 'nuff said.
(**does not include those girls who begin purchasing at an earlier age, those who end up having theirs for more than the average 5-7 days, those who hit menopause later in life, and pricing adjustments on products)

Yeah, but we buy razors and shaving cream and automatic razors. And other stuff...
um... we buy razors and shaving gel among other things. we get waxed too which ain't cheap.
What if the guy gets waxed too?
we're talkin about most guys... most don't get waxed, don't shave under armpits, don't pluck their eyebrows, and don't shave their legs.
