Ladies Take Charge: Get Down On One Knee!

There are few times that extra ordinary things happen and a leap year is one of them. The month of February(the month of love) which is the shortest month gets longer every four years with an extra day. While there are no marked celebrations for days like this, there are myths and beliefs surrounding the day, one of which is that a woman can take the bulls by the horn and propose to her said beau. Cool, huh?

The myth goes thus: St. Bridget, in the 5 century, goes to St. Patrick to protest that women have to wait for men to propose. St. Patrick then says, after due consideration and a lot of haggling, that every leap year ladies are allowed to propose to the men they love.

In an age where a relationship means next –to –nothing and guys run from commitment, girls are getting bolder.  The general belief that guys have to do the proposing have made hopeful girlfriends and mistresses take a lot of c**p from their partners. They endure being cheated on, lied to, and toyed with in the hope that one day their ‘loved’ one would get on his knee and pop the question. The question now is this: Would you take advantage of this leap year to propose to your beau? Would you refuse your babe if she proposed to you? Is marriage worth this entire ruckus? And if you choose to propose how will you do it???
