Leap Day. You know what's special about today, don't you? By tradition, if your fellow hasn't yet popped the question, THIS is the day that YOU can ask HIM. Women have always manoeuvred their proposals, and these days women can -- and do! -- propose outright to their fellows. Any day of the year.What's so special about today, then?
Once upon a time, it was actually illegal for women in Britain to propose to men -- except on February 29, because that day was not part of England's legal calendar. Here in North American, we've broadened it to the entire year, but historically, it was just this one day. So, if he hasn't summoned up the courage yet, you go right ahead, knowing that there are hundreds of years of tradition behind you!
