But seriously, regardless of how far we come in modern society, some things shouldn’t change. One of which is chivalry, and within chivalry, is proposing to your significant other. Often women are more ready to settle down and get married than men. So if women were to begin asking their boyfriend for their hand in marriage, I fear a lot of men may agree due to fear, which could lead to an unstable marriage or a lot more women will get their feelings hurt.
