The Battle of the Sexes is a never-ending and constant wa... fueled by gender role play and what Society declares as appropriate or not appropriate for one sex or the other. Division of the male and female genders has always been evident. Women, it's your duty to stay at home, raise and nurture the family and clean the house. While men are required to take on the role of providing and protecting. To dig a little deeper, gender roles are defined long before a relationship has developed. In the beginning stages, when it comes to male and female relations men generally know it's their responsibility to make the first move in any regard. When it comes to kissing, sex or whatever it may be, it's up to the man to take the initiative to someone set the speed of the relationship. Otherwise it's considered poor practice and the woman can be seen as needy or overbearing. At least that's the traditional way of things. Nowadays, more often than ever before women are "stepping up to the plate." For lack of a better term, stepping into the role of making the first move... And marriage proposals are not exempt from this movement.

Men used to be honored fight to the death for the love of the queen!!.The ritual of a man bending on one knee is symbolic of him showing honor to his one true love and respecting his woman enough to become one with her, leaving his bachelor lifestyle in the past. Wait for him!!!!. And si what if he doesn't propose...set a time limit that you are not willing to wait past and if he doesn't propose maybe it wasn't meant to be. Being that the man is known for being the head of the household it's his place to know when it's time to take the relationship to the next level. Also it's a well-known fact that most women are ready and willing to get married before men can even fully wrap their minds around the idea of, to have and to hold only one woman for the rest of his life.

I talk about my faith a lot but if you know me then you know why. It's what holds me together... The Bible says "whoso findeth a wife, findeth a good thing..." it was never intended to be the woman's job. We all know that more than likely the woman is ready. The true question here is, is he?? ...but let's just say you asked him and he says yes. Will you ever really feel like he desires you? Remember he agreed to this but the initial decision was yours not his. Will he always feel like you rushed him into a life he just wasn't ready for???... Maybe that's why he didn't propose. Will he resent you for aggressively making a choice that was ultimately his to begin with?? These are just a few questions I would take into consideration before making big life decisions that are sure to effect the both of us.

Men are Chasers. Their natural instinct is to hunt. Their power is in the hunt. they like to feel like they have choices and something to fight for. Something to chase after. Why take that away from him?? As a matter of fact you're not only cheating him...you're also cheating yourself. As a woman you have power too!!...majestic power!!! But your power is built different. Your power is in giving him something to chase after. Reminding him that you are worth the fight!!! Reminding him that you are worthy of the chase. You are a prize to be won, and a goal to be sought after. Not the other way around. So women get off your knees!!! Remember your position as Queen and the power in it!!! Be patient there is no rush....and remember the choice is yours and if he asks (as he should) you hold the cards. There's just no two ways about it!!
