Marriage is not only about the proposal, when a man propose to a lady and the lady agrees after marriage the lady will follow the man to his house and change her last name to the man's last name. Now that ladies are proposing is she gonna take the man to her house and make the man to change his last name to her's?

KwoiZabo: A woman can propose to a man but not in the way of kneeling or the formal way of proposal. She could do use gestures, indirect talk or something. She should just be creative.

Honestly, that's the modern way a lady should propose, as a girl am dating currently is proposing to me indirectly. Operator what should I do

The best way to propose to a guy is to seek his advice on the best way to invest N10m belonging to the lady.

Let us consider the issue carefully!

Firstly, the society has moved from matriachy to patriachy a very long time ago. matriachy reduced men's roles to only domestic duties. I mean, men swept the floor, cooked the food, manages the home in most of the old civilizations in South America and carribeans. Women, with hewn animal skin and intricate labels on their shoulders, go to war to defend or get more land and other resources while the men with hairy chests cheer them on. That was a period when Men were taught to grab their bulls by the horn. Consequently, the arrival of patriachy brought about a change in the roles played by both sexes in the society. I guess Men finally realized their desires and collective responsibilities, by grabbing their bulls at the f^vkn balls!!
Hence, the society has experienced, without prejudice and exaggeration, positive developments, transformations and a modern civilization.

Secondly, men r naturally egoistic and aggressive. We are hunters. The female folks are naturally soft, fragile and passive! they are the prey. We ought to hunt and dominate them. That is our mission. So if a girl ask a man out or something, it no longer becomes an ethical, gender equality, or critical aspersion questions on its right or wrong. It is a golden opportunity for the hunter to grab its prey after it had willingly submitted to the hunter's rigourous power.

In conclusion, Men should follow the instructions carved on the walls of the Persian extant empire, kept in the secret domes and hallways of Renaisance chapels, spoken in the metaphors of the ancient Roman and contemporary scholars. The message is as old as ever and suitably meets the rapid changes experienced by men and women. The message is simple: GRAB YOUR BULLS(relationships, faith, achievements, success, setbacks)BY THE BALLS!!!! If she asked u out and u are interested, find a way to dominate her. Dont EVER give her the control stick. and do all these things in a respectable manner too so u wont hurt her feelings!

It is only acceptable for me after I've over proposed to her and she says she's not ready, and I'm sure it's her I want. When she's ready, she'll propose to me. One knee on the ground and all.

Then I'll tell her "NO!"

Princeadebayo1: Proposing to a man is not proper and shows how desperate the female is which can turn off any Man buh if u get d liver and kidney ,what are yhu waiting for,the best thing dat will happen is d guy will say "NO" tongue and you will be left with how to handle the rejection.....pls never try it at home .

it is not desperate , its about going for what you want, my friend proposed to her now husband of 7 years and he was stunned beyond words.
the worst that will happen is dat the guy will say no, it is the same rejection a man will feel that the woman will feel if the answer is no, LIFE IS TOO SHORT AT TIMES TO KEEP WAITING

mizBerry1: @Mad cow That's what I said before....gender equality in other areas...but not in relationships/Marriages/Families..thanks


This reeks of Double standards as far as I am concerned and would be a real biitch the day those lines get crossed.

Feminism isnt selective. Feminists want equal rights all the way round. And I understand their cause especially on the home front as thats where women tend to suffer the most from this inequality.

But its all good, this was simply for me to get your line of reasoning and now I do, all I will say is that one day those lines would cross and get blurred and you would then not know how to sort it out.

Going for what u want ....yeah but it will be a shock to the Man if he is not yet ready and anything can follow,I guess her husband too had already made up his mind to propose to her so it wasnt dat sudden to him so it depends.....

And do you think a female can cope with a rejection from a man like a man will do?......*mouth sealed*:.....#FoodForThought

Truth be told many women have directly or indirectly proposed marriage to their men
"Dele we have been together for this long when are we getting married or don't you see all my friends are getting hitched"

"Dele look are you gojng to propose this year or not..."

"Dele we should be thinking of settling down this year oh .. I don tire to de wait "

"Dele if you don't propose to me this month I am so leaving you .."
