Propose Day is celebrated worldwide every February 8, marking the second day of Valentine’s week. This day provides an opportunity for individuals to propose to their significant others, especially for those who may feel that proposing on Valentine’s Day is too cliché. Historically, marriage proposals often involved a man seeking permission from a woman's father, a tradition that persists in some cultures today. However, in many Western societies, women have the freedom to propose, with about 5% of women in the United States taking the initiative. Proposals can vary widely, from traditional kneeling with an engagement ring to more creative approaches like hiding a ring in dessert or organizing treasure hunts. The essence of Propose Day lies in the sincerity of the proposal, allowing couples to express their love and commitment outside the commercialized atmosphere of Valentine’s Day.
