I’ll be impressed when women propose with a ring in one hand and a signed premarital contract in the other that guarantees that the man will keep all of the money he earns and all of the stuff that the money he earns pays for.

Hmmmm. Shouldn't a man have some skin in the game?

If a man is married for 30 years and the woman raises his kids and takes care of him, he should be able to leave her high and dry?

I’m a man. In all my life I never had the desire for a woman to give me a ring. Or a ring at all.

Don't hold your breath. Until fathers start offering dowries again, you won't see anything like that.

Think the point he’s making is, this #MeToo proposal thing is played up as equality/empowerment thing. His point is, when it comes down something with a bit more heft—no alimony, $20k ring, the ladies sort of lose heart on that equality thing.
