Should marriage proposals be done the man only? (73)
I think there's nothing wrong with a woman taking the initiative. What's the worst thing that can happen ? He can say yes or no. Either way at least you know.

I believe that in most instances a woman can tell if a man really loves her and wants to be with her - truth is that if he is "not into her" there are always signs and we are the ones that choose to ignore it.
So if my boyfriend/lover loves me dearly and wants to be with me then why the hell not - of course I would propose to him!!

I've been proposed to 3 times. Accepted once. Wasn't sure about the marriage thing but the right one (at least back then) came along.

I am most impressed when a man is a gentleman. I usually like the way things were where the man asks very romanticlly. However if he's the 1, why not? It is a great compliment to a guy. If he's not into it, then I know to move on in hopes I meet the right 1. Why stay in a stale relationship unless your happy as it is. Most couples pretty much know if the other is thinking it's time too. Turn down, men have gone through that for years and still survive, so 
go for it. jmo

even though women are empowered these days, some things are classic and shouldn't be spoiled.

Daffodils123: What do you think? Is it unromantic if the woman has to propose to her man? Should it be the man who takes the lead and pops the question? Does it show that if he doesn't propose his not interested in marriage therefore the woman shouldn't put him on the stop by proposing?
A marriage is a contract. And like all contracts should be discussed rationally between both contractors with due consideration to all the consequences. This idea of actually getting down on 1 knee and humiliating oneself.... it ain't gonna happen.

Like i Said Irish men SO unromantic! Classic example here
Its about showing the woman you supposedly LOVE the honour and respect, making her feel special when being proposed too, helping to secure a YES!

What a load of bollix. If she hasn't been made feel special already then there's no point. And anyway we're in what now? 3rd wave feminism? Equality and all that?

I think if a man proposes, it shows he is serious & ready for a commitment. If a woman has to denigrate herself & propose, I think it shows she is desperate; doesn't care about having a real relationship; & just wants to get hitched -- whether it's the right man for her or not.

I think if feminism isnt just to be an excuse for a lot of angry women to feel angry it must mean true equality: this means the proposal should come from the party who wants it.
Tradition be damned. Tradition says women stay at home , raise children, have dinner on the table when the man comes home. if we reject tradition we should reject it utterly.

human rights is a different story, gender roles without being extreme can still be traditional. If a guy is really in love with a woman despite what some people might say when not in love they want to show her and make the effort to make it memorable, showing how romantic he can be.

I see no reason women should be exempt from the angst of a proposal. In point of fact I know of two or three marriages where it was the woman who proposed. <Since they were already living together the male didn't see the need.>

I prefer the old fashioned way where my guy would propose to me.

steffffie: The ladies should propose....and buy us diamond rings too
Only if you promise to wear a white dress to the wedding

Although I wouldn't be brave enough to propose I see no reason why women can't go after what they want!
I commend the ladies who have the guts!

I see nothing wrong with a woman popping the question, couples who have reached this level in their relationship would probably have a pretty good "feel" for each others outlook on the whole marriage thing, Why should the man have to be the instigator of the question? I think it would be kind of fun to be on the receiving end, Who knows???

marriage = symbol or sign of insecurity that makes two people feel security.think about it really
------ This poll is Archived ------
In contrary, living together is a sign of insecurity between 2 people who are trying to escape from difficulty by making another difficulty with the same results.
I'm fortunate enough that I never give any chance for guys who are only and solely going to rent my body/mind/soul/life for the sake of his thirst of curiousity. For some women who already got involved with such losers, I would like to say : Don't beg commitment from guys who live in their insecurity. You are not going to be happy.

Uhmmm: My wife proposed and we were married 26 years. She certainly wasn't desperate and was very serious about the relationship
