FIRST - Before any of our ladies here kick my ass over the thread title here me out. My wife and I do sweet things for each other on V-day, and it doesn't always mean spending money.

The thread title refers to all the commercials I hear on my radio about what to BUY HER this Valentines day. I hear none talking about gift ideas for your GUY. One commercial goes through an equation for guys to figure out what to buy... How long have you dated by how deep are your feelings, etc = how much to spend. This is followed by the female perspective... How lame was the gift over how cheap was the restaurant = how fast you dump him. I also know some girls that love to talk about the gift potential for the 14th, but only for what they are getting or where they are being taken too. I know some girls that are not like that at all, that are trying to figure out what they can do for their guy on V-day.

SO... how many people here think that advertisers should play up to both sexes for V-day? Has anyone heard commercials aimed at women buying for their men?

How many people think that V-day is all about the woman and guys should cater to their girl's every whim and hope they'll 'get lucky'?
