So what's with the diamond ring?
Other than the beauty of a diamond, what makes the diamond any more special than other gems such as a ruby, emerald, amethyst, topaz, etc?
Perhaps you were to get the partner their birthstone set in a ring. Would that not be more significant as it has more meaning?
As a society, does price say more than they actual symbolism of the token? Culturally no, stereotypically yes?

My sentiments exactly!
So why the need to buy something so expensive when it's just a sign that 'this person's taken'?
