Broken modern womanhood

girl you are literally wrong. men would ask the father because marriage just a few years ago was all about money. in some countries men still pay the father for his daughter. the permission was never about love its about property.

Asking her father to marry her or a dowry is just from a different time and should be left there

Totally agree. It's also called courtship. We should have fathers who love and protect their daughters and know what man is best for her. We have serious broken father/daughter relationships.

It’s about property.

Shouldn’t be worried about getting permission from your parents if your partner gets along with them. For a man, it’s a rite of passage and an invitation to become part of the family. My cousin recently got married and my uncle walked in on him doing breath work before he asked his permission. My uncle wasn’t fond of him but now they’re bff especially after giving him a grandson.

But after 18 girls move out of the house and take care of themselves so the girl in car is right.

Yea but when we’re in our 30s it’s kind of weird. I took over that role a long time ago for myself when I became an adult and moved out. Asking for someone’s hand makes sense when they’re still a part of their fathers household.

This just happened last Saturday to my husband. daughters boyfriend called to ask permission. The following day he proposed and she said yes! ♥️

Definitely started as a proper thing and is still practiced in some parts of the world. You stated the fantasize version that tried to sugar coat what it really is

Wrong - men no longer have to ask fathers for permission to marry their daughters because they didn’t teach their daughters to be proper women. They allowed them to become feminists and didn’t bring them up in the Catholic Church taught properly. Men don’t get dowries either.
