Do people still do this?
What if the couple love each other but the girl's father hates the dude? Or if he gets a "no" from the father, should he not bother ask the girl?
On one hand you would think a woman would value her father's opinion. On the other hand, doing this sort of insinuates that the girl can't make her own decisions and considered the property of her father.
