Yeah of course there are "associate reasons" for either party to get on their knees, but I meant in an apology setting. I guess it's a cultural thing, maybe some tribes are more about the kneeling down than others.

To me kneeling down in an apology sense is lowering yourself as a supplicant, like I'm at your mercy. And I suppose if someone did something truly awful (I'm talking awful like murder or really just doing something grievous to someone else) and they know it, and feel compelled to throw themselves at the mercy of the one they wronged, fine.

But when two people are supposed to be united as one, like lovers, then there's no place for who has the upper hand or who's the supplicant. An honest, "I'm sorry" should be enough. That's just my opinion. The only way to get your guy/girl should listen should not be with you at their feet. And if the only way you're going to forgive is if the person is at your feet, then that's a problem. To me. In my opinion.

Well of course I never restricted the discussion to an apologetic setting since the poster didn't. However, I can see how that could possibly benefit the apologizer giving the apology. It can be used deceptively and can also be used genuinely like I said. It all depends on one's motive. An honest "I'm sorry" can also be demonstrated and accompanied by getting on one's knee. Once again, it's symbolic and not compulsory. I don't think the one who's wronged would "demand" it as the only proper apology. Even if you did get on your knees it does not guarantee that the one who's wronged would immediately forgive and forget. Apologies in whatever ways, shapes or forms they come in do not fix wrongs.

True! Ok, we're on the same-ish page now. 

On my wedding day i will kneel down.But after that,NEVER.

I don't see the big deal about kneeling. It is respectful and men sometimes do lower to their superior, is normal. In the privacy of the home is where we live our intimate life, it is between two adults, I would hope my husband never need get on his knee for me but I personally do not have trouble with kneeling issue. It has many ways to show respect, admiration, trust, appreciation ( I don't mean that kind you gutter thought men ). When my husband come home tired I let him relax a bit with something cold to drink then I come up to him on knee making sweet talk and start nibbling just a little on him. He forget he tired O,
