Gender roles...Is there a problem with a female proposing to a man?

With the evolution of societal norms, and traditions, I'm very interested in knowing how everyone feels about this new phenomenon of women proposing to men(in heterosexual relationships) for marriage? This is becoming more and more popular, and there have even been some heated discussions amongst feminist about them being offended by it. Moreover, what about men changing their last names upon being married. What is the significance of all of it? Why are these gender roles in place? Would you be open to any of these modern changes, if not, please explain. What do these traditional ways mean to you?
