Mary’s getting married to a moron (18)
Yes, old fashioned indeed!! My father had already passed away so my ex asked my mother.....
I just love the way you write, its so refreshing, but.... what has religion to do with it??!!

I think we passed that here in the 50's or 60's so yes it would be very rare these days to see a man do that and considered old fashioned...the sticker or the Elvis Chapel is more fashionable these days....

I think it is nice... because it shows respect, courage and a desire to include the wider family in your relationship... I love old fashioned ...

I like the way he writes too. Already told him that. Nice, isn´t it?
It´s not about religion or anything. I don´t think he´s really looking for the debate, he just wants to inspire us and himself.

I think it´s a lovely romantic gesture and shows respect for her father... but what if he says no and she says yes?
Do you respect his feelings or do you go ahead with what the two of you want... if the latter, what was the point in asking?

If you can save up for a flight, to go ask my father, i'm good with that. 
You can't ask him on the phone, network coverage is crap where he is.

You rose of Hampshire, I thank you for your kind words.
As for the religion bit, I'm not sure what you mean?

PPV, if the woman to whom you would give your hand and heart is truly what you believe, you would do her a great disservice by not respectfully stating your intentions to her father. He is the one man who will always Love her more than you, and has only the utmost concern for her welfare and future. Any man who could callously seek to remove her from her family and their involvement would in truth not deserve even the clippings from her nails.
Old fashioned is not outdated and in your heart I know you will be this man to whom her father can look upon with pride and call a son.
The mere fact that you have remained unwed in this day of fast food weddings is a testament to the man you truly are. For me likewise marriage is eternal and a once in a life-time deal. Hence I have never been married as the woman who fits that particular dress and shoe has never been in my life until I met her just a while back.
Of course marriage is something which carries many differing connotations and it is all dependent upon which version you ascribe to. Do what your heart needs to feel that such a pure moment remains unsullied by internal conflict.
Please stay away from Mary as she is quite unstable... her father likewise has a gun and it is reserved for the Shotgun Wedding concept moreso than as any sort of deterrent to her afectations. She is quite the burden at home of late and the family is shopping hither and thither to seek some far off place for her to call home. Just ask the cat and dogs (if there wherabout can be determined ever again) for proof in this sordid pudding.

My 1st husband did ask for my father's permission to marry me....but that was 18 years ago.
Now should anyone want to marry me I would not want them to ask my father's permission, but my son's as they are now the more important men in my life. JMO

Another big laugh!

I really don’t care.
I’m not doing a survey.
That was blunt and rude on purpose, just to wake you up a bit.
Of course I care, otherwise the thread would be one somewhat ridiculously posted, by an unmarried moron.
So, the question at hand is, have we since long passed the days of when marrying the strawberry/raspberry combo pudding (or chocolate/marshmallow if you prefer) of your dreams, inevitably involves asking her father for her hand, or is that something plain old fashioned now, and it’s more appropriate to get a sticker out a machine in Las Vegas, attach it to her chest, and call yourself married?
I’ve been close to getting married once.
- Doesn’t that sound like… “Oh, I almost flew to the moon once, I had a dozen balloons in my hand and it was a moment struggling, I to keep my feet from levitating”
I’m not the one marrying Mary.
I’m the one asking the question, should the bloke ask the bloke who is the father of the gal, before the bloke gets hitched to the gal?
My own answer?
The time I almost asked for her hand, it was the number one thing, to ask her father first.
I'm old fashioned, me.
