Exactly. I have always had negative thoughts on this concept. Yes, I want my dad to be okay with who I marry if I do so, but at the same time, assuming I've bought into the relationship enough to want to get married (and a man would be an idiot to propose to a woman not knowing if she wanted to get married, and hopefully, to them), if my dad says no, ain't gonna matter. And that has always been my go-to argument: OK, so you're asking "permission." What happens when Daddy says no ? Now that I think about it, I was engaged once. I don't think the guy asked my dad but I think it was also due to, well, my vehement disagreement with this topic.How does that sit with Baby?
