I think it's ok depending on the couple.....but I'd never do it. With that I realize that there are just some traditional practices I still adhere to....I couldn't do it.

It would be nice to get pregnant so I could have all sorts of entitlements, priviledges, law preference, society sympathy for whatever I do, etc. Oh yeah!

How about if a couple decides NOT to have children like many couples out there? How about if they adopt?

That's what I've seen from the women I know personally anyway.


Can't blame women. It is something they start hearing since the very first fairy tales they hear, Disney movies, etc. Later on they grow up to start seeing chick flicks and crying to the dreamy scene of the handsome guy going down on his knees to beg her to marry him and then gently putting that shiny ring on her finger. Then the whole princess magical wedding. You can even see little girls playing as if they were getting married, with their dolls, etc.

Sometimes I wonder if women dream more about the wedding than actually being married.

I would have to be crazy, to want to get married. But let's say I lost my mind for a moment. Would I propose to him with a ring and a special dinner ? Nope. I'd probably just get him drunk and take him to Vegas and get hitched in front of some strangers. In the morning , the day after, I would break the news to him that he's going to have to work harder if he wants to get rid of me.

I don't think there is a problem with it if both of them had a discussion about marriage in advance and are on the same page.
Now would I do it? Maybe not as I prefer the man doing the proposing (not the ridiculous on the knee thing but a normal face-to-face conversation).
I guess the only exception would be if the man himself was too shy but I know the answer is a clear yes.
