Ladies, Come In Here....can You Propose To Your Man? by hibiscus76(f): 3:43pm On Jan 20, 2018
It's seems to be the latest trend.. cheesy cheesy cheesy
At first, I thought it was usually a staged act till it became obvious ladies don't care anymore.
As for me, I'll still stick to waiting for my man to come around cuz I'm certain he isn't far...

But lemme hear from y'all ladies. What's your take?

As a feminist, here is my take.

Male and female are equal and deserving of equal opportunities and integrity. If a man can propose, a woman can propose too. Infact, if a woman proposes to me and I like her, I will marry her. If a man can be the breadwinner of a family, a woman can be the breadwinner too. If a man can be a danfo driver..... wink

If a woman propose to me, I won't see anything wrong in that. Woman do fall in love and it should not be wrong for them to go after the one they love and make their intentions known to them. Feminism is a hallmark of a civilised mentality.

However if you want to stick to waiting for a man, no problem as we are all free beings.

Oga Feminist, hope your family will receive Bride Groom's price from your girl?

Talking about equal opportunity, hope you would be ready to get pregnant for your girl if given the "opportunity"?

Men and women are not the same, both are unique in their own way

I don't believe in bride price. Two people who love each other and have all it takes to "settle down" should be allowed and encouraged to go freely and "settle down."

undecided dere is a limit to wat a woman can do,women can Neva occupy d position of men,it's not in d place of women to make d move towards starting up a family,it's a man's duty. The way men and women reason differs,b4 a man could tink abt proposal, he must have taught abt d future, his upcoming family and even his unborn kids school fees bc he will be the one to bear most expenses but place women in dat position,they will only consider their age and d numerous outstanding weddings of their friends.
Men remain men, ntin will eva take their position

Oh shut up your mouth and think. Nonsense! Who says a woman can't make the move of starting a family? Who the hell are you to say such? Who made it so that a woman can't initiate the move? Women and men in this case are equally capable of starting a relationship and making plans ahead. Break away from sheepishly subscribing to cultural convention and stereotyping, reason first and think for yourself.

Men and women aren't the same. The brains of men and women are wired differently. Men and women have evolved to have different needs and possess different traits. The gender roles that you are trying to modify didn't just manifest arbitrarily from some vacuum. They are that way because they represent the nature men and women.

Women can't make the move to start a family or take the driving seat in a relationship because women always prefer partners that are higher than them in all relevant hierarchies like power, wealth, status, intelligence, physical strength and emotional strength, and they are usually happier and satisfied when in a relationship with such men. Women prefer to play the subordinate role in a relationship because that's how they are wired. The vast majority of women don't want partners that would be subordinate to them, rather they prefer a dominant partner who would take the lead role in the relationship. The reverse is the case for men.

Stop that rubbish of associating "brain of men and women are wired differently" in this case. Most of the practices in relationships we see today came from the ideology that a man is better and superior to a woman. The practices of man being seen as the head of the family, men being seen as the heir, the clamouring of a male child, women don't talk when men are talking etc. are all testament to this ideology. This has always been with human beings since history if you doubt it, take a look at your indigenous culture and it's history and read the quran and bible on how women are to be treated and how man is made from a woman undecided. Surprisingly, even women have bought into it.

I admit that men and women's brain may have differences in wiring but in this case, it's obvious and by virtue of common sense that men and women can perform equally in this regard. I rest my case

The difference in wiring of the male and female? So women that are proposing and writing love letter nko? What are you saying sir? undecided women don't like to be subordinate by default, it has been passed down from generation to generation and was started by greedy and wicked men who saw the female gender as being superior to the male gender.

I've been proposed to before, and since I'm still very young and not ready for marriage, I took it as a joke, but I knew she was damm serious..

When love is on the brain according to rihana..
Re: Ladies, Come In Here....can You Propose To Your Man? by Twoclans(f): 8:46pm On Jan 20, 2018
@ OP yes a woman could.

But really for me all this public proposals are just drama.

If I ever decide to propose to a guy its going to be in private.

No. Men and women can't perform equally in every sphere of life. Even in careers men and women tend to differ significantly in their career choices, and this isn't socially mediated.
There is a reason for this and THE REASON IS BIOLOGICAL and it's the same reason why women tend to possess different behavioral traits from men and these traits influence how they approach relationships.

Yes, ancient cultures were hard on women, but this doesn't invalidate my claim that men and women are different. Even in our day with all the cultural progress humanity has made, and with all the wealth of knowledge that's been accumulated throughout history, women still have needs that are different from that of men, and these needs reflect their nature. If you carry out a survey right now and ask 100 women to tell you the kind of relationship they want, majority if not all of them would say they want a dominant man who would take the lead role in their relationship. Their response wouldn't be as a result of social conditioning or the oppressive patriarchal structures of society, but it would be a reflection of their biological dispositions.

lol know that men and women are not literally equal. I can spot many biological difference. Nevertheless, there are a lot of areas where women and men can perform equally and to induce and enforce inequality in such areas, against the female gender, is the true subordination and of females. Okay.
