Sad but true. It has a lot to do with what's expected from naturally desirable men vs. stable providers men. A date/relationship with the former is its own reward. But the latter must "show how much they care" .

Hmm...maybe I should try that line on my wife next time she's upset about something I did or didn't do.


"Babe being my wife is it's own reward."


She does have a sense of humor after all.

V day means.....you buy some useless crap and spill your feelings on a jacked up costly card. If you do all this later that night it turns in to the real V DAY....usually a great sex night where more exploratory things are on the table. If the woman rewards the man with a great passionate night then all the buying of crap is worth it.

Yeah...except then you wake up the next day and realize you're in a crappy shallow relationship where sex is viewed as a reward for trinkets.

framing sex as a reward/ punishment tool for wives, is sexist and abusive. it insinuates that women dont like sex, and i find that simply to be completely wrong.

Wow! Makes me glad I have absolutely no interest in sex. Kay Jewelers and Fannie May probably hate my guts, though.

Welp. I was bad. I told my husband yesterday to buy me that valentine dunkin donut. And voila! He came in just now from work with it, AND coffee with a kiss and couple love you's. Awwwwwwwwww. And he said we would go out tomorrow coz it's the V day. And honestly I didn't even know until he told me yesterday we would go out tomorrow.

Anyway, I can afford to be bad coz he just bought a bowflex M3. So couple times a day I get on there to punish myself for being bad eating sweets. Ugh.

I will be sitting in class tomorrow night and my husband will be home feeding, bathing, and doing bedtime routines for two babies.

But I'll visit him tomorrow at work with a coffee, some goodies, and a few trinkets for his new office.

I try to do thoughtful things all the time. Valentine's Day isn't much different from any other day. I suspect many men dislike Valentine's Day because it shines the spotlight on their self-centered behavior the other 364 days in the year.

Exactly.

Guys, if you have to buy sex in this way...well...yeah. You're getting what you pay for.

Want to NOT have to buy sex with a thousand big gifts? Seek a real relationship and don't have it be with someone who will only hang around if you give her gifts.
