That point was made, then completely dismissed when stating that the "majority" of women demand a man that can provide a diamond.

I said this,

>That doesn't mean that every woman here absolutely requires a man who can buy her a diamond, but the majority do.

right after talking about the US--meaning I was discussing women here in the US, where it is demonstrably true that the majority of women demand diamonds.

This is mostly thanks to De Beers expanding the scope of their advertising campaign internationally.
