Leap Year

It's only once every 4 years, but today, us ladies can propose to a man. This was made law in the middle ages and if a lady proposed to a man on February 29th and he refused he had to buy her a silk gown and pay a fine of £1! St. Bridget is said to have suggested the idea to St. Patrick that women should, occasionally, be able to propose to men and it seems that one day every 4 years was enough.

Well I don't know about proposing marriage, but I do think, for the day that is in it, all the women on the site should make first contact with at least one man today - go on girls you know you want to:-)

I look forward to your comments, and your stories of successes with your new contacts!!

I like the idea of men being fined! apparently the fine could be anything from money to a kiss, to soften the blow of rejection....Ah bless, male chivalry...bring back the olden days I say!

but surely a kiss being the fine kinda defeats the purpose..? Kissing is the icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned..!!
