"Valentine has become a pointless day in which insecure people have to validate the integrity of their relationship by receiving or buying some stupid perfunctory gift and making a big scene about it.
Lame"

this is a very judgemental comment and a sweepint statment and not true for everyone. valeintines day has routes in Greco-Roman pagan fertility festivals and the medieval notion that birds pair off to mate on February 14.

in my culture Kamadev is the lord of love. we used to look down on valentines day because of how the west commercialises it. but that is just the superficial part you don;t have to support. now we have valentines day in the east it has made people remember the hindu traditions of love long forgotten and recently frowned upon. in fact valentines has helped ease the repression that came along with the forgotting of ancient traditions of love.

so valentines is great to me at least!!!
