ok 2 occasions
on 1 occasions I asked permission from said father to formally date is daughter,
even though she said it wasnt necessary, I still did, both her parents respected me for it and so did she. (although I did go out with her for a short while before hand)
and certainly when I married my wife, I 1st asked her to marry me but I rang her father (in Canada) and got his permission we then both over dinner at my folks house, broke the news and I asked for my fathers blessing.
Guy's its called respect, I dont give a rat's ass what people may or may not say or what the woman concerned may say.
You earn respect by giving it.
Respect for ones parents is the highest duty of civil life.

You know, the old fashioned asking for your daughter's hand in marriage deal.
If it was not an option, parents were dead or whatever, pick option 3
