A survey by the American National Confectioners Association has found that ony 6% of men receive Valentines Day gifts.

The average man spends $130 on chocolate, cards and other gifts (boy, that is a LOT of chocolate – or a lot of other Valentines Day gifts – take part in OUR survey). In the US, where Things Are A Little Different, children receive the most candy and gifts at 39%. Mothers and wives dole out Valentines Day gifts to their partners and children, and come in second place at 36%.

Between the mothers/wives and the kids, they are six times more likely to receive gifts than anyone else, including pets.

Isn’t chocolate bad for Rover?!
