It would be super sweet since I love nature although chocolate is way too hard to resist and I may prefer it. I would definitely get a guy flowers if he's worth it to me. Not the roses, or tulips, something of a different kind. Perhaps, less feminine if I was dubious around him being into all of that. Gestures are more valuable than the substance itself I think.
I wouldn't send it, I would give them! Since my mom has a botany degree, I've always been in love with plants and nature, especially flowers.
I wouldn't mind receiving flowers! I would see it as something very sweet! Actually, I offered one to my crush, and he didn't think it was not ''masculine'' (it was a blue rose). It didn't end how I wanted it, but hey, he seemed to have appreciate the gesture.
I would be delighted if someone gave me flowers and would think that it was an incredibly sweet gesture on his part.
I'm "meh" about flowers because I can't eat them and they're more of a gift for girls, but I'd be honored anyways if I got some for Valentine's Day because no one has shown an interest in me before.
I would buy them of course. I did in the past... even picked flowers for guys I've interested. While I care very little for recieving them I would greatly appreciate the thoughtfull gesture. I like carnations, daisies, sunflowers and yellow roses best if anyone thinking about sending me flowers.
I wouldn't assume that most guys would prefer recieving them, but I love flowers and I would be thrilled to have some given to me.
When I go on a first date with a guy, i always buy them a yellow rose. I think its really cute without going over the top (my dating calling card if you will). Personally I think its dependent on the guy, but I would love getting flowers from someone close to me. I think a couple small really pretty ones are much nicer than extravagant bouquet though.
I love plants and flowers, and would love receiving these as I would any similar beautiful gesture. A small rose for a lapel, if we were going someplace fancy would be perfect. On the other hand, we've been so creative with other symbolic elements (kerchiefs, etc.) that it would be nice if we, as gay guys, could come up with something we could call our own (of course, it would soon enough be appropriated by the general culture...we're just too fabulous to ignore...)
I would be thrilled. They're such a pleasure and luxury this time of year. I force bulbs for a bit of color against the cold and grey of harsh winter winds. Men giving each other flowers goes back to the Renaissance. The derogatory use of the word "pansy" for someone gay grew out of that tradition. Buying flowers for another man would depend on the individual, however, I'd hate for this gesture of love to be taken as a frivolity or worse.
I think recieving any gift is nice, but I can't say flowers would be my first choice. They just seem a bit of a faff to the recipient to me. You need a vase, then you have to cut them, then feed and water them, then they rapidly decompose in your room whilst you pull more and more dead ones out leaving the bouquet looking sad and turning the water into that horrible brown smelly sludge. (Can you tell I'm not a fan?! :lol But yeh, if I recieved them I'd be flattered and act polite, then quickly pass them off to my mother! There are actually a few varieties of flowers that are edible. Tulips and roses are I believe. People put them in salads.
Eff yeah I'll take some flowers! I would also accept a poem or a box of chocolate. I like that romantic stuff. Also, check your bank funds before we go to the restaurant, because I'm going to be ordering the baked stuffed lobster.
I probably wouldn't give them to a guy unless they were OK with it, but I'd love to get flowers. Of course, I'd be fine with any gift. All that matters was that he thought of me when getting it.
I wouldn't want flowers because they're crazily overpriced on valentines day and Id feel like it would be a waste of their money. I'd rather recieve something I can keep for a long time
I got my boyfriend roses for Valentine's day and he loved them. I knew that he wanted flowers so I got him some. Simple as that. Gender stereotypes are stupid, it all depends on what the person likes.
