Baghdad’s romance grows with Valentine’s Day

Iraq’s capital is embracing Valentine’s Day this year with a huge public display of affection in what its residents say is the nation’s most amorous celebration of the holiday ever.

Street corners across Baghdad are blanketed with the synthetic red fur of teddy bears, while silken nighties and lip-shaped satin pillows hang in store fronts.

It’s a vivid counterpoint to a place that’s still a far cry from warm and fuzzy - with bombings remaining a fact of life since the withdrawal of U.S. forces two months ago.

“Valentine’s Day is for everybody - not only for lovers,” said Lina, a school administrator who would only identify herself by her first name. She was among the throngs browsing through an array of plush kittens, scented candles, red lamps and heart-shaped purses outside a store this weekend in the Baghdad downtown shopping district of Karradah.

In Japan and some other parts of Asia the women give the men chocolate on Valentine’s day. The men must then give any woman that gave him chocolate on February 14th, white sweets on March 14th (White day). And in some parts of China anyone not receiving anything on either day must go and eat Black noodles in a Chinese restaurant on April 14th (Black day) to mourn their single lifestyle.

I’m pretty sure this holiday persists into the 21st century because it’s a great excuse to for people to remind themselves to have crazy, wild, passionate sex at least ONCE a year. 

And this is why I won’t fault anyone for celebrating Valentine’s day especially if it includes using your V & P or P & P or V & V or whatever floats your boat.
