Does society only allow men to propose in your country or are things changing?

Things are changing these days, although it’s still common that men typically propose to women. Although I personally think it doesn’t matter which sex should propose first, most women still seem to think that women shouldn’t do it and wait until men propose. This is something that happen all over the world even in the country where gender equality has been legalized and quite well established. Even an extreme feminist won’t get her head around proposing to a man. Women need guts to get down on one knee to propose a man. Three-fourths of Americans say it would be fine for the woman to do the proposing, in theory. In practice, only about 5 percent of those currently married say the woman proposed, and the figure is no higher among couples wed within the past 10 years. Attitudes actually seem to be trending the other way. Young adults are more likely than their elders to consider it "unacceptable" for a woman to do the asking. Women still want to be treated like princesses.

Happy Monday, Sir [이름]!

You are right! Women still like to be treated like princesses.

It is such a wonderful feeling for girls to be surprised and proposed to.

I can still remember a girl who proposed to a man because the guy has cancer.
She can\'t wait and like to spend the remaining days of his boyfriend with her.

If you don\'t mind me asking, how about you? How did you propose to your wife? ^^

Do you think extravagant proposal are good or not? Why?

We can discuss this in class, see you.
