I don't think anyone was deliberately being catty...most people were just saying that money does not necessarily buy quality, nor does it ensure the success of a marriage. The discussion was primarily about those people who allegedly believe that, or that where you get the ring is a symbol of the love that goes into a marriage. Many of the people who believe this tend to be young--as indicated by Killarney's post.
As any discussion does, this one skewed off-course; it's okay to discuss why you did or didn't choose a larger ring--we all have our reasons. As we are all adults, we all understand that if someone wants to wear a ring out of coal, that's their prerogative. It's someone's prerogative to spend whatever they want on whatever they want.
I know over a year ago, there was a thread about college educations; most of the people here said it was ludicrous to spend $35,000 on a college education. I don't remember any posts alleging that those people were catty...not trying to be mean, but food for thought.
