Du**** Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Feb 29 - Leap Year Day - observes the arcane (if not insane) tradition of defying convention by “the woman asking the man to marry her”. Quel horreur! I’ve no intention of proposing to anyone, but - maybe I should ask a gentleman on a date?! Who’s planning a little quadrennial role-reversal to mark the occasion?
CopperKnob Posted February 28 Posted February 28 My role reversal plan us to, Ask the male neighbour to put the bins out and mow my lawn (of the grass variety) then I need the tyres on my car blown up and the car itself washed 😉🤣

That’s wonderful! I always say the key to a successful relationship is picking the right one in the first place (must be where I’m going wrong) 😆

VILKDUJA Posted February 29 Posted February 29 Apparently, according to the original Irish tradition, if the man turned down the lady's proposal he was then obliged to buy her a new silk dress or fur coat, thereby ensuring she was onto a winner either way. A relatively small price for the guy to pay to retain his freedom.
