OK Ladies, 29 February IS HERE! The one day in every four years when YOU can pop the question!

By jauntie

Some cultures and traditions says that a woman can propose to a man during leap year.

Are there any ladies on QL who have someone in mind for marriage, but 'he' may be too shy to ask YOU? Now's your chance to get your man!

Here is an extract from an article I found on an Internet Blog to get you in the mood.

http://blog.her-desk.com/2008/02/pop-question-ladies.html

"Society has always frowned upon women who made the first move. However, there are times when society states a woman can make the first move and ask for the hand of her man in marriage and that is during a leap year.

In a Leap year there is that famous one day every four years when the calendar indicates that there is a 29th of February. The tradition which allows a woman to propose marriage to a man is observed in most cultures and if you are raring to ask your man to marry then this is the best time to ask those words. Legend has it that the tradition began in Ireland some time in the 5th century when St. Patrick declared that females can start proposing or make known their feelings to a man during a leap year.

However, legends as to the origin of the leap year go beyond that. The tradition was made into a law in Scotland sometime in 1288. Aside from legalizing the power of women to propose marriage to a man, the law also penalized men who declined a marriage proposal during the leap year. The penalty can be a kiss or a payment for a female item like a pair of gloves.

In the USA I think they call this the Sadie Hawkins Day (after a female character in a comic strip by Al Capp) although they prefer to celebrate it in November when it was first mentioned in the said cartoon series.

But as the female population the world over rejoices over the liberties that are afforded to them, the Greeks believe that getting married during one of these year can bring bad luck to the bride and groom. Thus, Greek couples may get engaged but they will postpone the planning and the wedding ceremony for the next year. No matter what, modern day women are empowered to do whatever it is they want to do including asking the hand of their men in marriage. However, proposing to your man during a time in accordance with the tradition can be more fun and memorable for both of you.

So go ahead, pop the question before ladies' privilege is over."

 I'm feel very upset for my Confession Booth today.I will not divulge the female name for my security and santity, someone PM me early this morning and indicated that she wants to seduce me for some fleshly extra- curricular activities inside My Confession Booth. Her Conditions are:1- She will wear two piece, ultra-sexy, semi transparent red lingerie.2- I will be handcuff to My Confession Booth and  she will show me, her favorite lap dance in top of my face. "YIKES" NOT THE FACE!3-  Then she will ride me out until I'm exhausted and tired.4-  Here is the Catch, she will pay me 11000 QR, iF I won't tell anyone about her secret surgery and her adams apple removal...  My answer to her was, "Hell will freeze first"! before I fall into your lust, seduction and  nastiness.  Matter fact,The Penitence Room is ready for you, once you are inside there is "No way out" except "Fuc@ing Hell!.What person in QL will do such horrible thing to this Pope?

FEARFUL FELLAS

WORRIED WOMEN

If - strangely - she invites you out to dinner, refuse at all costs. Isn't there a work do you could go to? It is a Tuesday night, after all.

Remind him that you hate to do things just because it's tradition. After all, isn't that what he said on Valentine's Day?

Beware the words: "Sweetie, can we talk?" Hijack the

conversation immediately with news of a close friend getting divorced

or a harrowing account of your own parents' marriage break-up.

"There's 29 days in February this year? Oh no, that means it's

yet another day until I get paid." There's nothing like financial

worries to cool the ardour.

If a phone conversation gets out of hand, use this phrase: "Crrrcccchhhrrrrrr - you're breaking up - crrrcccchhhrrrrrr - tunnel ..."

Go for the sport angle. "Oh, is it really leap year? Is that the same year as the World Cup, or is it the Olympics?"

Even if you're on a normal phone.

Speak loudly on the phone to your friend about the time you asked your ex to marry you on 29 Feburary. How you'll laugh!

Don't agree to go on a last minute trip to Paris.

Quite simply, stay away from all alcohol.

Seem pained and preoccupied all day. If asked what's wrong, say:

"Oh, nothing, it must just be something I ate yesterday, that's all."

Interrupt the flow of any serious sounding "chat" with regular trips to

the bathroom.

Whatever you do, turn down any offers to do with baths,

massages, champagne or candlelight. It means he's scoured the women's

magazines for tips on seduction.

Just don't go home after work. Turn phones off altogether.

Isn't that big project just about to hit deadline? You'll

probably be stuck at work all evening - which is a terrible shame,

because you really were looking forward to that special dinner he'd

planned.

Reply to emails "Sorry, I shall be out of the office all day today. I'll be back on 1 March."

That girlfriend that got married last year. It's no coincidence that he's suddenly invited her around.

If she asks you to go for a walk with her, just get on the bus, Gus.

Do the old-fashioned thing. Pick a fight.

Here's a few tips, courtesy of the BBC:

"Don't give up hope if he doesn't dive into your arms the instant you mention the M word.

But who will spare a thought for those poor dumb chaps who - until the

moment 1 March dawns - will be terrified in case their girlfriend

decides to seizes the day?

And what about those girls whose fellas have been subtly

dropping hints for weeks that it's a leap year, hoping to spur an act

of feisty impulse?

"

Both of them, fear not. Help is at hand.

List of how to handle the situation posted in next box.

He is playing all the ladies, hoping for proposals so that he gets to say 'no' and has to pay the forfeit!

 

Under Scottish law regarding ladies proposing on 29 February:

"men who declined a marriage proposal during the leap year. The penalty

can be a kiss or a payment for a female item like a pair of gloves".

 

And I don't think Smokie the Bandit has a pair of gloves in mind do you?!
