Hey, liberals - do you like your proposals gender normative? If so, you're not alone. Even students at the UC Santa Cruz aren't down with ladies taking a knee, as a study revealed none of the 277 heterosexual classmates interviewed would prefer a proposal in which the woman asked the man to marry her.

2.8 per cent of women who took part in the survey said they'd "kind of" want to propose - but not a single man indicated he'd prefer the ring put on his finger.

Jezebel reacts with disappointment: "What gives, heterosexuals? This "benevolent sexism" is a bit of a bummer, but not surprising. Heterosexual ladies, let's get out there and just start asking dudes to get married, it'll help us ease into it."

What's your view? Take the poll below.
