What do you think ?
What about Russia
14th February is not a traditional day of love in Russia, although it has been in recent years due to european influence in the country...Traditionally, 8th March day of Women, where all men give women flowers, chocolates, cards and various gifts of appreciation and love. Even at workplace and on the street men can be found congratulating women. Then 23rd of February in Russia is the "Defender of the Fatherland Day". Women give men gifts to express their gratitude and respect to all men for serving the country.
Very interesting article!
Brazil is totally wrong.
