The graphs reveal information on the types of gifts that people in the USA buy for each other on

Noticebly, it can be seen that cards seem to be the first choice of both sexes when it comes to Valentine’s gifts. In fact, the figures for men and women are 27% and 18%, respectively.

Another striking feature is that traditional gifts including flowers, candy and jewelry appear to be the second most popular gifts among the American as the numbers are consistently above 10%. Interestingly, while 21% of women buy candy for their loved ones, the corresponding figure of men is just 14% or 7% less.

A more interesting thing is that 10% of females consider perfume or cologne the best choice whereas only 4% of their counterparts agree with this. Also, other gifts such as lingerer or spa are chosen, with spa being the least popular to men (only 1% appreciate this)

In conclusion, the graphs may well reflect the differences between two sexes when choosing a gift for their loved ones. While women like the romance, their counterparts seem to be more realistic.
