Who Wants a Necktie?

I tell you, anniversaries just aren't fair for the guys. Our wives would appreciate(expect) a decent gift in recognition of the wedding anniversary, preferably jewelry or pricey cologne(don't forget the card either) and maybe flowers(roses unless you're a caveman). We go through this tumultuous ordeal and what do we get in return? Sweaters, shirts, after shave, and neckties! Keep it all unless you happen to be the caveman who gets carnations instead of roses to show his undying love and admiration, blah, blah, blah. I guess a daily dose of I Love You doesn't add up to so much when it's anniversary time. Very one-sided ladies. Nobody, not even merchants, put decent time and effort into providing wedding anniversary gifts for husbands that husbands would love to get which would inspire them to be overly generous to their wives the next year in grateful anticipation of a decent reciprocal gift. That was a long sentence! The jewelry starts to become reasonable to us ladies! It's just a thought. The neckties? Unless you want us to tie to to the bed or something with them, keep them at the store where they belong.
