Marriage is arguably the hardest and longest contract a human being will enter. Meaning, a husband who is supposed to lead and guide his wife and family should enter it of his own free and without possible coercion.
In essence, let the person who will provide and protect when his wife is pregnant and indisposed ( assuming that the couple gets a baby) make that all-important life-long decision to commit.
(In my mind, proposing to a man FEELS like those women who try to baby trap a man hoping that he will commit forever.)
Why should a woman never propose to the man?
Let the man prove that he is indeed in it for the long haul. I know that this article is steeped in traditional ideas of how a marriage should be run, which some will criticise me for.
But I still believe those ideas were excellent at weeding out men who weren't fully invested in a particular woman they were courting/dating.
In short, a man who proposes to his woman is likely more invested in that relationship ( and its success) than the one who doesn't.
This doesn't mean a woman can't ask a man for a relationship or commitment from him, of she so desires.
But I could be wrong...
