When it comes to marriage and relationships, many would agree women are usually pressured by society to play the submissive role.
Even women who are not married are usually warned against pushing a man into marriage and even popping the question.
But actress Reagan Gomez thinks it’s hypocritical for society to expect women to be go-getters when it comes to careers, but yet so passive when it comes to love and marriage.

Nope.
Hell no.
I think people have to do what works for them. My husband and I didn’t have a traditional wedding or proposal. And our engagement was pretty quick too. But some women really want a traditional proposal and it’s nothing wrong with that.
I don’t think it matters who proposes as long as both people are mature and committed to making it work.
I’m sorry but I don’t want to get on bended knee and ask a man to marry me. It doesn’t seem right. And no real man would sit there and let his woman get on her knee and propose to him. #SorryNotSorry
Nobody has to get on their knees.
I just don’t think most of us want to propose. What do I look like getting a man a ring and getting down on my knee to propose to him? I’m good on that.
She made a good point and I think a lot of people will miss it. Her point is women want to be on equal footing with men until it comes down to proposals. And she’s 100% correct.
Exactly.
I respect her opinion but I’m not getting on my knee proposing I want my man to do that’s just my preference. I’m just a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to proposals I still want a man to ask my dad for my hand in marriage. I’m not knocking another woman if she wants to propose everybody is different and nothing is wrong with that.
To each its own. All that matters is doing what you have to to have a good marriage after the fact.
Damn where has her pretty a-s been? On topic, I don’t really give a sh-t about feminism when it comes to this sh-t. Just make sure my ring is the sh-t and we’re good. I’m old fashioned about proposals and I don’t give a f-ck if that makes me a hypocrite or not. I own it. Lmao.
I’m not going to propose to a man. If I did I would always be questioning the marriage.
She is making a lot of sense but I’m not going to propose to anybody. I want to enjoy the moment of being proposed to and seeing my engagement ring for the first time.
I know someone who proposed to her man but like a day later he surprised her with an engagement ring and got on his knee and proposed to her. I think that was really sweet.
Regan’s comments are always on point.
I can’t even say she told one lie. We really do want to be equal in everything except our relationships. That’s the only time we want men to take charge. Weird huh?!
Just not in the ways of God in my opinion. The word says when a Man finds a wife He finds a good thing and that’s what I’ll stick to. Sorry not sorry.
I totally agree with Reagan. It should not matter if you are both on the same page. you don’t have to be traditional in asking “the bended knee scene” but you can be creative and ask in your own way. Either way, a no is still the same regardless of whose doing the asking.
