The topic I chose was about people opinion on wearing engagement ring by the women. As we all know that different culture have their own way of doing engagement and we can see that many cultures uses engagement ring in engagement ceremonies. Engagement ring gives the meaning that both the male and female are bound with each other and are ready to bind in a relationship of husband and wife. Engagement ring is also a proof that both male and female exchange the engagement ring that means male has the proof that female has accepted his proposal and female has proof that male has accepted to make her his wife. Before, there was an eternal belief for this culture but nowadays the belief is not taken seriously. People have no any seriousness when engaging with each other. So, nowadays, some people have ruined the power of engagement ring which used to bind couples eternally. Although the meaning of engagement ring has faded in some extent, but there are many people who still have their faith and respect to the culture they have. Though, we can see the shapes, styles and materials have changes with modernization of society and status. As per the changing generation, the styles and materials inventions are also changing with respect to time.
The topic like invention and convention can also be related in my topic. In my view, I see both of them are interrelated with each other somehow. My topic best describes the part of the convention by; engagement ring is the starting point that binds two individuals to be husband and wife. As I said it also is a proof that both had the acceptance to live in a relationship to live with each other being a husband and wife. And other convention can be taken as when it is lost then it is taken as the bad omen or boding evil or fearsome. It is believed that both should protect the engagement ring as long as they live for each other. There is convention that wearing of this artifact leads to everlasting life of her husband and there will be always peace and the prosperity in their married life.
While talking about the invention part, the shapes, styles and the valuable materials are changing with respect in change of the generation. Before, people had the stereotypes about the ring should be of valuable materials but now these kind of stereotypes have faded to some extent. Now people uses engagement ring as per their capabilities and economic status. Some uses silver then some uses gold and there are also people who uses diamonds and other valuable components with different designs and style which they can afford. We can observe the change in styles and shapes of engagement ring.
When analyzing theses theories, I realized that the convention stays same throughout the time even though it may not be acceptable to some extent for some people because of carelessness of other people, while the invention may vary with respect to time, generations and modernization. As per my topic, the serious belief to the meaning of engagement ring till now is still constant and that describes the convention part whereas the physical modification or changing styles describes the invention part.
