I mean most of these stories take place historic times, so its only the norm.
Huh? I thought historic times usually men going after marriage to girls family. Am I missing something? Or it was just asian thing in the past. I didn’t know in western usually women after men for marriage. Sorry.
Oh, sorry, I worded that wrong. I meant in the sense of contract like marriages, where both parties gain something from the marriage. I believe there were cases of women usually noble bringing up marriage in those scenarios, but I'm not sure exactly.
It's cuz in historic times, a woman had no true power if it wasn't for a man and his status, or unless she inherited a shit ton of money. Even if she has money she wouldn't be taken seriously by some people cuz she wasn't a man. I think Priscilla did the best she could in her situation.
Idk maybe I’ve been reading too many webtoons, I wish no more story girls asking men for marriage. Just too many.
