Today, I asked for permission to marry the girl I love. Her father not only said no, he said "HELL no!" FML

Even if you forget about the roots of the tradition (women as property), my problem with this whole permission thing is twofold. First, it's always the father who gets asked, and mum gets no say (even though mums quite often understand their daughters better than their dads). Second, it implies that it's someone's decision other than the person being proposed to. If anyone asked my dad for my hand in marriage he'd say no, on the grounds that it isn't his to give away. YDI.

Women aren't property, its like saying men are property. If there guys weren't built differently and such from girls then we'd have more choas and imbalance

It is sympathetic, sure, but who cares? That's not what this site is for.
