Cis: Men Being Held Hostage

Men are held hostage. What are you going to do to prove your love for me? Question: Is it candy, cards, maybe dinner or are you required to buy a gift too? Why is this? ... It is about love. It is something you should be doing every day. I guess I can understand a card, flowers, candy for a guy who is courting (don’t know what the new word for that is) and needs to make points. ... But husbands, long time lovers, sorry, I feel for you. You are there every day, all year long, and if you are doing it right, your gal knows you love her. So a nice card and flowers are all you need. But you shouldn’t be doing because a commercial says you should/Cis, From A Simple Mind. More here.

Question: Do you view Valentine's Day (tomorrow) as a delight or a duty?
