Do you think a woman should propose to a man?

I think it should be equally acceptable for either partner to propose, irrespective of sex or gender.
At the very least it allows the couple a chance to discuss where their relationship is at and their dreams, fears and goals for their future.
The big thing about marriage is the choice to commit to monogamy until death - but it comes with a huge range of legal and social pros and cons.
The reality is that about 90% of men and women commit adultery (according to psychological research).
I would recommend each person maintains their own career and income,
never sharing a bank account, debts, credit cards, or the title of any property,
each pays equally towards the costs of raising kids,
and always signing a prenup with the help of a lawyer even if you never expect to become affluent.
Since living together for two years or more now creates the same legal status as marriage,
I'd recommend always keeping a separate place, even if letting it to a tenant or sub-tenant.

Where ? Common law marriages don’t exist in my state.
@bijouxbroussard Sorry, didn't know that.
In Australia, de facto marriage (living together for two years or more) has had the same legal status as formal marriage since 1975.

[@jimfarris] 🤔it rather goes again the old fashioned idea of men usually doing the asking 🤷‍♂but it is not written in stone i guess so the woman could make the call as much as men

Should? I don't know about should, but it's perfectly acceptable.

Yeah, why not?
There’s no logical reason for a woman not to be able to propose to a man. A marriage in the 21st century should be a partnership between equals.
