Apparently Ellen gave her audience "right hand" diamond rings for Valentine's Day. She joked that it's not exclusive, she can still see other audiences.
I don't know anything about a marketing plot, but then, my Y chromosome excludes me from the target audience, but I like the concept. After all, why should a person's enjoyment of a particular style of jewelry be utterly dependent on someone else? Not to mention finding the right someome else, and then cultivating the right set of circumstances.
Talk about an equality issue, if a man wants something, he goes out and buys it. Thats what makes gift giving so hard. When I want to give my father a gift, I not only have to think of something he'd like, but something he won't have already bought himself.
I say if you want a diamond ring (and can afford it) buy the damned thing. Then wear it on whichever hand you want. When people ask about a fiancee, tell `em you don't *need* a man just to wear something pretty, and besides, it matches the earrings and the tennis bracelet.
