i dont know know too many women who keep their true feeling inside when it comes to marriage, I do think they will express to their partner, ie: I can totally see us married and having a family, or ie: we've been together for (x) amount of years when are we going to get married. those are the ways women let their men know they are waiting to marry them. As far as getting on one knee and proposing and paying for a ring, thats something that is foreign i think. I dont really know any women who have done that or are willing too. Nice approach in tackling the issue. However, do you think that the use of clues and/or suggestive languages help the matter much more than a direct proposal would? well first, it's important to remember that statistically more men remarry than women Now as far as the OPs questions- who cares? do what u do say what u say just make sure you can walk the walk u talk - we all have different comfort levels regarding reversing traditional gender roles. I seldom even message first much less propose - never ask a guy out on a first date - so I doubt I'll be doing any proposing any time or at all lol...hmmmmm....seems like you nailed the coffin by expressing finality of effort in the opposite direction. Fine: at least we know your stand on this matter. Anyway, you highlight an important relevant issue here: "reversing traditional gender roles" 1. Who set those roles? 2. Why is it so necessary to keep those roles undisturbed? 3. If associate parts of the bundle of traditional gender roles are experiencing a paradigm shift, why can't the whole bundle of roles be exposed to scrutiny and possible reversal (e.g., remember affirmative rights, voting rights, etc). Your thoughts please....

I dont think it is forbidden. I know women that have proposed I would think anything of it. BTW, whats wrong with a lil bondage ??  A little bondage is great. Lifetime of bondage might suck. |

I see nothing wrong with it. It's not traditional, but since when is tradition the benchmark?

What is this traditional notion that forbids women from boldly popping a love or marriage proposal to guys? Generally it is believed that the European woman seem to be bolder and freer to express their intentions compared to the American woman. Are women truly free in love matters? I think that women here generally think it is the man's responsibility to pop the question - looks like bondage to me. Your thoughts please.....??? I've been asked 5 or 6 times, and accepted once. Big mistake. I've never proposed to anybody. And I'm not planning on it. I don't see any valid underlying reason who women shouldn't ask, if they're inclined to do so. Tradition? Pffffft..... |

Thats what im saying. Some things are a mans job just like some things are a womens. We are not equal...We were not made physically or mentally the same. Thats why together you should be a force field. |

After being in a relationship I will pick up the tab sometimes. but never flowers or open doors. A real man would not like that. |

I think that women here generally think it is the man's responsibility to pop the question - looks like bondage to me. Bondage? Which woman here has pink fuzzy handcuffs?

NOOO. After being in a relationship I will pick up the tab sometimes. but never flowers or open doors. A real man would not like that. A real man wouldn't? I would think a real man could accept it as a nice gesture and put his pride aside. I have sent flowers and opened doors. I am willing to pay on the first date if I am the one that asks for the date. To the OP: I wouldn't have a problem asking a guy to marry me. rejection stinks but it happens. It can happen to guys that pop the question, why should I be immune to it? I'm a big girl....I can handle it |
