Ok, if you do just a little research, you will understand that this song is most DEFINITELY a criticism of patriarchy and the twisted acceptance of disgusting behaviors from men just for an engagement ring. Research what this band is about and look at their other songs. Quote from one of the bandmembers, Bianca:
"My sexuality is explored in my work," Bianca said, "[but it's] more my gender than my sexual preference. It's really not about being gay or ungay, it's about being yourself in a patriarchal, heterocentric, heteronormative, monotheistic world. It's always the changing question and answer, and it's the forefront of my work."
