That's a nice personal anecdote. But your personal experience has no bearing on the general pervasive attitude that been dragged on from the days when women were in fact legally the property of their fathers and then husbands.

Of course this attitude has changed and evolved over time, but it's still an attitude born from a place of extreme sexism and misogyny. And the amount of men who will ask a fathers permission or expect to be asked for permission for their daughter still comes from a place of still treating women as something to be possessive over due to their gender, is way to damned high.

Your personal experience doesn't change the existence of the pervasive attitude of women being possessions.

Good for you. But whenever I hear about asking for the "parent's" permission, 99 times out of 100 it's the father they're asking.

If that's the question, why is it always the father they ask?

That whole rule is completely arbitrary and has no basis in reality.
