Valentine’s Day Is not Loved in Kuwait

I want to start by saying that I hate Valentine’s Day. It’s a stupid, superfluous celebration that kills romanticism. Therefore, I am not so outraged because in Kuwait two Parliament members proposed to ban it. Wednesday the Parliament debates the motion, but I forecast Valentine’s victory. The Islamic politicians always turn everything in morality and religion, but Valentine’s Day is only a business and Kuwait is accustomed to the business. So, I think the Kuwaiti shops will keep selling camp furry hearts, how horrible! The soul mate, a love for life: only a lot of nonsense! OK, at the moment I’m single. So what?
