This is couple of days late, but Happy Valentine's Day to all the lovers who celebrated.
It's that time of year again. Husbands far and wide were asked on Wednesday, "So. What are you doing for your wife for Valentine's Day?" My husband was asked this question several times, and several times he answered, "Nothing really. My wife isn't into Valentine's Day. We'll celebrate a milestone anniversary this weekend anyway."
Each time he was met with a mix of amazement and wee bits of jealousy that he gets to sit this one out. Nothing new there. However, there was one thing I noticed.
No one, no not one single solitary person, asked me nor has asked me in many years, "So. What are you doing for your husband for Valentine's Day?" I've not had any opportunity in a long time to express my general dismissal of the holiday for reasons I'll not get into here. The point of this post was to ask a question to the minute numbers of readers here:
Why are men asked this question so much more often than women are?
