The whole idea of having a special day where men (and it is usually the guys who are the target of this nonsense) are pressured into being 'romantic' (by buying future trash) is a Corporatist plot to divorce silly people from money best spent on sensible things like putting aside for a utility bill.
It also encourages people to be dispassionate slobs for the rest of the year.
It injects tension into partnered couples, further isolates the singles and just underlines how people talk about romance, love and passion but are encouraged to express it by buying junk.
Have a nice free cuddle instead.
Agreed.
