teks: Ok..on the day of my engagement, I only found out about this after the event. When the groom's side asked how much the dowry should be, my parents said 3k. I felt sad and felt like I was being treated like a commodity. When I asked why they did that, why not just ask for a lower amount or ask for items like jewelry or prayer clothes instead, why ask for 3k? The answer was because all of my relatives' dowries were above 1k, none were below 1k, so it would be embarrassing if it was lower than that. It made me sad. Why do we have to follow what others do?
