Silence, in this case, means that the poster meant what she said when she said she'd not be back in this debate. Why are those words so hard for some people to grasp?

I am not seeing how and why people would get "insulted" over the idea that there are different customs in the world.

Well YOU might not be insulted if I say your "traditional" wedding sounds boring (disclosure-I do NOT think that) and I might not be insulted by you calling my "traditional" wedding "fru fru" (don't think I make all your qualifications-lol!) but others do.

Hey now, don't go insulting the poor country club brides by calling their wedding chi-chi.

She said it did. For some of us who had to work our way through school, and were on very tight budgets, renting regalia would have been cost prohibitive. I bought my PhD regalia because I thought I would wear it often enough that it would be cheaper to buy....I think it was fifty dollars to rent and just over five hundred dollars to buy the year I decided to buy it. I just checked online and new PhD regalia from my institution is almost a thousand dollars to buy!

Ok, so you want to be involved in others' lives and their important moments. yes I do

Does the reverse hold true as well? yes it does

You want others to be involved in your life and your important moments? yes I do

Does this "others" include your inlaws and other relatives? yes it does

Um yeah--I went to a big LI Italian wedding in the wedding hall and kept getting asked why my 2 year old was not in attendance. Well she wasn't because kids were not invited. But 2ndly I was very glad she was not there--relatives & friends kept asking where she was, but with the massively loud reception, I don't see that it would have been a place for small children. It was like being in a bar--very loud music.
