Steak and BJ day

[Bitchycocktailwaitress]

So, was watching a cooking show last night that really put me in the mood for a nice rare steak. Told DH I wanted to pick up some big rib-eyes at the supermarket with him.

He told me he would be embarrassed as it is apparently steak and BJ day today (valentines for men) and we will look like twats if we go into Tesco to buy steak today.

We have compromised by agreeing to use the self service till.

Is he BU? I am going to serve with crab with home made mayo and crusty bread as a starter, and baked potatoes with Philly and crispy bacon, and a green salad as a side.

Didn't know this exists.

But I know from some Asian friends from highschool that there's this thing called white day, right? I think that may be today as well... Idk, tbh.

It's White Day :) my husband got chocolates as he does every year. Tbf he could have a BJ if he wanted one he would only have to ask and doesn't need a day for it. We are both veggies so no steak.

He's U for even knowing about steak and BJ day. Misogynistic bollocks that it is.

But on the other hand, he is embarrassed about people possibly thinking he is that kind of man. I'd say that's a good sign.

It's a day where boyfriends/husbands etc say thankyou for their Valentine's day presents, I think... (?)

Sounds like a bit of fun. Also a lot cheaper than valentines....

Oh my good grief!

It's not so much that people come up with this crap, but that twats go along with it.

Daren't buy steak in case the cashier might think he's getting a bj tonight?

Even if they "know" what today is, wtf would they care?

I'm having a prawn & egg salad for tea.

I have heard of steak & BJ day in the past (thank you FB), but can't say I've ever observed it!

Some people clearly couldn't be arsed to read as far as the "Light hearted" at the end of the OP's post.

I'd heard about it before but no idea when it is meant to be and didn't think anyone was dim enough to take it seriously. It did come up in conversation once (not as a suggestion from me, it was a topic on TV IIRC) and my wife quipped "steak and a BJ? You'll be bloody lucky if you get a hamburger and handjob". She's nobody's fool :)

There's nothing inherently bad about it, I supposed?

Who gets the bj?

Though more like "Steak Rare and Blowjobs Rarer" in this house 😂

Chicken Kiev day here, today. MIL will be here for dinner.

Barbarian I do. All the BJs

And yes, I'm kidding. (Kind of.)

It's been around a few years now... DH is having casserole for dinner, and the only part of him I'll be touching is his shoulder that I whack when he is snoring!

"Lady's"

< head/desk >

Never heard of it. Does this mean your DH only wants a BJ once a year?

But surely until some prick came up with this, Valentine's Day was unisex (like, both partners were supposed to be all romantic and give presents)?

That is actually my main issue with this 'steak & blow job' nonsense - it basically suggests that men don't like romance and nice gifts and women don't like sex or meat.

Its bolognase and a cuddle before sleep day in this house!

Jeez why are some people on here giving the OP's husband grief on here. The OP and her husband are obviously having a bit of a joke. It might not be to everyone's taste but it is supposed to be lighthearted.

I thought it was pie (pi) day. Actually, it's my birthday so if anyone in our house gets treats it's me

Why would men have their own Valentines Day? Feb 14th is for us all! Anyway, did he get lucky????

I've heard some bollocks in my time but this beats all. Isn't Valentine's Day supposed to be when a couple exchange gifts, etc? So there is no need for this crap to exist, is there?
Light-hearted or not, it's still nonsense.

Seriously!

I think it depends.

In some cultures only one person in a relationship receives a gift/anything. So the other person gives them a thank you gift the next month...

But yes, it may be meant to imply that "all that romantic crap" is something the boyfriend/husband has no interest in and that he therefore deserves a reward... Which is a "bit" eh...
