Sweetest Day is NOT Just For Men

The whole meaning to Sweetest Day is really messed up for people. If you want to know what Sweetest Day is and who originated it, keep reading.

Sweetest Day

During America’s Great Depression, a man from Cleveland organized many people in an effort to provide a small token of friendship to the underprivileged, shut ins, orphans, and homeless. Today the holiday has expanded to include small tokens of appreciation to friends and neighbors too. These tokens of appreciation can be small gifts or small acts of kindness. This event is repeated on the third Saturday in October.

Some candy maker in my hometown is the creator of this day. Yet people take it where that this holiday was made for the men sense Valentines Day was for women. Well since people can’t seem to figure out what Valentines Day is:

Valentines Day

Valentine’s Day or Saint Valentine’s Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the English-speaking countries, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine’s cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery.

Where does it say that is just for women? Everyday should be a day to express how much you love someone. Just like Christmas for you silly Christians should be everyday that you want to give, share and all that other lovey-dovey crap. I don’t know who put it in people’s head that women have their day and men have theirs when it comes to Valentines and Sweetest Day. That is just totally idiotic.
