I'm so for it. Why wait around for the man to come to his senses, when you can do that, and the guy would take it as a compliment aswell. I really think that instead if you feel ready, and you bot have talked about being a martimony, then there is absoluty nothing wrong with the women taking the first step. People talk about being in the 21century, but a whole of women don't seem to be acting like it at all. They always wait for the man to come around, it's enpowering that a woman would take such a bold first step. If the man wants to propose, and if somehow he would feel like a lesser of a man, then tell him to do that. Women should take more of a stand, get what they want...
