Will You Marry Me?

Little girls dream of getting married and boys, well they dream of cars, bikes, planes, boats and sex. While they’re growing up they never give marriage a second thought until their friends start doing it. When this happens marriage suddenly becomes the thing to do. Like all things boy-like [which means that it involves very little planning] they find someone they like, someone that most often reminds them of their mother, and propose.
It’s for these reasons that I find it completely ridiculous that boys and men are the ones who are traditionally left with the very serious job of proposing? All that bended-knee nonsense, the stuff I grew up dreaming about, is left in the immature hands of a group of people that are unable to concentrate when a body with a nice pair of boobs goes running by.  No wonder so many marriages are ending in divorce. Frankly I’m surprised that so many people are getting married in the first place. After all you are leaving the proposal up to a sex who still reminisce about their Spiderman pajamas.
It is not even like women can’t propose! Lesbians are doing it every day. It’s just that in heterosexual relationships it seems to be less common. I personally think women, who are for the most part more romantic than men, would do a stellar job. They would make it so memorable and touching that they would knock the underpants off a male proposal any day.
