Valentine’s Day and the Media


I Have decided to blog about something that may be controversial to some but to me this subject is simply something that has always bothered me and I haven’t really the proper place to discuss this until now. Especially since the subject that I am discussing is the topic of Valentine’s Day and not many guys want simply sit around play some halo and talk about candy, flowers and hearts… the things that make up Valentine’s Day, at least in today’s society.
I do believe that Valentine’s Day use to be something truly special for one person to show another how they feel about them by giving them some sort of gift or taking them out on the town for a night or simply just doing something special for a loved one in your life. Although, now due to how our society works and with all of the social networks that are available for everyone it seems as if Valentine’s Day has become who can get the best gift for their better half to post on these said social networks to boast about it to their friends. In Conclusion, I do believe the true idea of Valentine’s Day is still there, although it has gotten slightly skewed due to the medias effect on our lives.
