I think that females can initiate a date, albeit not as aggressively as men should. The reason I say this is because the logic pattern of the female, when it comes to dating, is much different than a man's. Therefore, in order to avoid a lot of heartbreak and misunderstanding, I think that females should come off as slightly more aloof until they know the man well enough. As for engagement, no. Unh unh! There is no way I'd marry a man if I had to ask him. It is the man who builds the homestead, with the wife as a helpmeet, and covers the family. Women should not assume this position.

Yes a female can propose to a male, but the man is usually the one who proposes to the female. Don't rush it if U think it is about to happen.

We live in a society where people still believe in the man asking a female out. There are a lot of forward thinking people, like yourself. Some females would love to ask the man out, and some do. (SADIE HAWKINS DAY) Some men would be pleasantly surprise. If you want to asked a man out just make sure the signs are right to do so! You don't want to mess with his man hood. When it comes to asking a man to marry you that's another question. They may not mind you asking for a date, but they are not going to want you to asked them to marry you!

I believe you can do anything you want. You can certainly ask a man for a date. Frequently you'll be successful. You might even be successful in your proposal of marriage.

However you need to remember in any relationship there is one who kisses, and one who is kissed. If you are comfortable with a very submissive male companion then you're probably OK. However, if you expect to be woed, courted, romanced or "pursued" this is pretty unlikely to happen.

yes u can ask a male out on a date and a female proposing is not unheard of so take a chance and go for it.

You could but that would make you seem awfully desperate.

Asking a guy out on a date is one thing but asking him to marry you is entirely something else.
And if you put him on the spot like that then you could very easily lose him.
Proposing marriage is usually something that the man does. Don't bruise his ego.
Men still like to feel like a "man" even in this day and age.

This is a whole different era. If you want to propose, you should do it!
But, a date would probably be a good start. Guys like it too, cuz that means the pressure is off them!

Why not? If you see someone and you're interested - ask him out. If you're in a relationship and ready for marriage - ask him to marry you. You're in the drivers seat and all you have to do is put your life into gear.

To comment on the response above mine, if I did the asking, I did the paying. That is the way it should work. If you ask, expect to pay.

In light of the feminist movement and such, ya, a women can ask a guy out and pay for everything. That's equality which women have fought for and won. So ask a guy out, pick him up, and pay for the dinner and movie. Yupper, that's equality!
