[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are people still doing it? What's the point because if she is already dating you, either she has permission or doesn't need it. Anyways, which questions would you ask a young man who asks for your permission to propose your daughter? (If your daughter is 21-30 and unmarried)[/quote] Women are no longer considered chattle and we are capable of making our own decisions. Giving the bride away is a throwback to the days when eomen were chattle and had to give a dowry of money or barnyard animals. A woman with a college education and who has been working for a few years does not need a father to give her away in marriage. Just another dark age tradition to keep women as second class citizens.[/quote] My father giving me away was one of the sweetest moments of my life. Why does every little tradition or gesture have to mean some sort of affront to your civil liberties? Calm the f$&k down. [/quote]
