Should A Woman Propose To A Man?

I has always been traditional for a man to do the proposing. i see see nothing wrong with turning the tables. Women should be equal to the task. There's nothing wrong with women doing the proposing.

I see nothing wrong with it. Life is free, what you think is not a norm in ya side is real in other side. in my community it is not right for a female to make an open initiative to propose to a guy. WHY? 1. ladies are most time taken advantage of in such situation 2. they are name 'spoilt girls' 3. in that are given such an honor later disappoint because they normally claim they are not interested but accept her because its hard turning down an advance from a lady. In a natural sence, I think ladies should send out signal than verbalizing their feelings. But all the same, civilization has influenced everything. I see nothing wrong if she is proposing to the right person.

Well today women are in par with men in possibly every field rather they are superior than men in many fields of life....Then why can't a girl propose to a guy...Though its cliche that a man will bend down on his knees and propose to his lady love,but if a woman does the same thing for her man then I think absolutely fine...There shouldnot be any barrier like u r the guy so u should do this and I am da girl so I would do that...AS LONG AS LOVE IS SUFFICIENT, everything else becomes trifle..

HEllo there. I have heard that there are some girls who will propose to a man and I believe that this is not fair. Our culture would entails that only a man can propose to a girl or to a woman he loves. I think that culture change and so does the way of proposal. Well, we are only people and we really do change. So no argue to that. Have a nice day. Happy mylotting keep on posting.

yes of course..why not!! it would be so easy for us..why sud men always propose..girls sud also feel it how it feels..how hard it is..haha

Well...that's kind of awkward to me. I guess cause we are so use to the traditional way. But, in my opinion i don't think a woman should propose to a man. She might me looking stupid if he say baby im not ready to get marriage yet. If you look at it vice versa, the woman isn't always ready either when a man propose. So, they should both make sure they are ready to settle down. They should also make sure they truly love each other no matter what. Once you say "I do" there's no turning back. It's official...

I don't see why not..The UK has a tradition in Leap Year that the Woman could "Pop the Question" on Feb.29th..I don't know of any couples who did this,though! http://marriage.about.com/cs/holidays/a/leapyear.htm I do think,though,that after 3 Years Her Guy should have got his plans for them together by now!

i don't know about this, should be okay nowadays? i think there's no such rules that should man who ask for the propose, but i didn't call you oldfashion for that, because that's also happening for some people Have a nice mylot!

It would be so much better, even best, for a man to propose to a woman instead of the other way around. Marriage proposals only come once (or rarely) in a lifetime so it's a bit sad if the woman has to do it although in some cultures it doesn't matter who proposed. What matters is the readiness of both to get married. As for me, I would still go for the man proposing. If my man makes me wait forever then I don't think he is that strong enough for me.

I think this women matter is different then other. In this situation one girl can propose one man to marry. As they are lover. But otherwise i think girls should not propose to a Man. As some man then blackmail the women.

I think if you fall in love with sb,you should bravery to propose,beacuse i believe if you love,please to say out

why man cannot propose to man? since woman and man are equal. As long as they love each other, what is the different between a man propose to a girl or a girl propose to a man? So i personally agree that Woman can propose to man if you love him

OK. If she's serious about it, go for it. I mean, age is catching up on her... thirty six years... Why not try it. I think its weird, might not be appropriate, but, who says there is a rule against it?

I think it is right, if she love him. If she still waiting for his propose, maybe there is bad news. So when it is the right time, please do it, it is for future.

I don't see any valid reason why not. I suppose a less self confident man might feel intimidated by it, but a man that has a spine won't be. and if a woman wants to get the ball rolling, then why shouldn't she ask. either way it only happens when both people want it to, so why should it matter which one asks the other if they think it's a good idea.

I think it's fine for a woman to propose to a man. I sort of did that with my husband, though I didn't buy a ring or any of that. I just said "I think it's time we got married" and we did. I was also the one to tell him "I think it's time we considered ourselves dating".. but that's another story. We were already acting like we were dating, but I kept saying I didn't want to be in a serious relationship... I was also the one who was against marriage at first, so we moved in together and had our kids.. when the twins were 6 months old is when we got married. Tomorrow is our 7th wedding anniversary.

Let's be serious, because in truth, all proposals are made by women. Only that some are formally performed by men. Anyone who has ever been in a relationship of more than a couple of years knows that the woman is, in most cases, the one that chooses her husband. After a couple of dates, she works out whether you're husband material (you usually are) and can be forced to tie the knot. After 1 year she decides that it's time for you to cohabit, and after two to three that it's a ring or you're out of the picture. Usually the biological clock aspect comes into the picture. If you take a deep breath, look at the calendar (notice that you're living in the 21 century) you may come with the idea that there is no reason for a woman not to propose, just as there is no reason why she cant ask someone out. Today a woman can do anything a man can. However, in my oppinion a woman going ring shopping and formally proposing should be ok, as long as she would propose to another WOMAN. Either you ladies like it or not, manhood is not a thing that can be socially constructed, but genetically inherited. On another hand, yes marriage is a socially constructed institution, and social norms and values should changes togheter with the evolution of mankind. Jap, that's true. I agree with the spirit of change, and take it even further. If the woman wants to play the groom's part, depriving her partner of his manhood (although I hardly consider that a man in this situation should be called by that name) then why not dressing the male-bride, into a beautiful bridal dress? After all, in this context, it should be perfectly ok. Subtle smiles.

it is the most common way but it s not 100% out there. Alot of times decent couples end up breaking off cause she s waiting for a proposal while he s to shy to do it, or while he thinks she would say no. I think it s something that should be addresed by any of the 2 and if the couple is based on true feelings it wont matter who opened the subject. It s more important to make sure that the other one knows what you re thinking, rather then "keeping your nose up in the air" thinking it s only normal that HE asks about mariage. :P

It is absolutely ok for a woman to propose a man. I don't think there is anything wrong in that. Every person has a choice. So if a woman wants to express how she feels then she should not stop herself from expressing. Tell her to go ahead with her plans and have a happy married life.

AS far as I am concerned, I think it is OK for the woman to propose to a man. I think if the two are really in deep love, it will be OK for the woman to propose for the man. Or if the woman loves the man most in her heart and can not live without him, I think it is also OK for her to propose to the man.Just enjoying life can be the key point.
