1. True – This was an actual practice years ago!

2. True – The superstition is that for every stitch a bride sews herself she'll shed one tear during her marriage.

3. True – It's supposted to bring wealth and prosperity. This was started by the Romans around the time of Ceaser. Although I'd take it out before the dancing starts, or it might not be so lucky then.

4. False – There are no rules about whether you can throw white or brown rice. Though there is the myth that it harms birds. Most places won't allow you to throw rice, not because it harms the birds though, but because they are worried about people slipping on it.

5. False – They could only propose on February 29th. Since that day wasn't counted as an official day, women and men had equal rights because there were no laws being upheld.

6. True- People who are superstitious avoid these because the colors stand for blood and bandages.
