Do ladies also offer gifts to their men???

Why not? Men and women have one very important thing in common: we're both human! My husband and I have been blessed with five awesome years so far, and all throughout it we have been giving things to one another for no reason it all. It keeps the relationship romantic and special, not to mention I love him so much I just have to give him things! I've given my husband clothes, food, jewelry, books, games, all sorts of things, and he has given me the same. Lots of times we'll also consider doing the other one's chores a gift, since sometimes those are the best gifts! I had a friend who thought it was odd that I'd buy my husband dinner and such. She was Armenian and brought up with very strict "man gifts woman but woman gifts nothing" beliefs. I honestly would rather gift things to my husband than get things from him. I'm the breadwinner and the one who takes care of finances, bills, legal issues, etc., so it feels weird to have to lean on him for everything. It doesn't mean he never does the same for me. He'll buy me dinner or surprise me with gifts extremely often, but I take pride that I'm the head of us both as a woman, so I strive to do things that keep me in that position. I believe that yes, men should make their women feel special, but at the same time, I believe it's highly respectable and sweet when a woman gives gifts to a man. Some women have a sense of entitlement, but those who give gifts are usually the ones who enjoy keeping equality within the relationship, the ones who truly love their men and try to show it any way they can.

This is a great question. Both the man and woman should gift each other things. I mean look at this way--If the woman keeps taking and taking she will eventually look selfish and the man will end up thinking she is a gold digger. So it is better that both the people are involved in gift exchange. And when a woman gives a gift it simply means she cares about her partner which I think is very cute. Also men need to be indulged sometimes.

It's the 21st century! Of course it is not only ok but beautiful that women are buying " just because" gifts for their men.I don't like flowers but my guy does. Every once in a while I send him flowers. It is fun. I love his reaction.

I live in the U.S. and some 25 odd years ago when my husband and I were dating he was the one doing the "simple day gifting." Of course, special occasions, birthday, anniversary, I gifted. We have a daughter, who is 20, and she probably gifts more to her fiance than he does to her. Not only with material things, but taking him out to eat, movies, etc. He does her too, but he is quite the spend thrift, where she is the opposite, money burns holes in her pockets. And there are plenty of women/girls, I know of who are doing this, gifting their man, just as he gifts her. I guess it is only fair.

I love to give gifts to my husband but as I'm about o have a baby can't afford to at the moment. In the past, when I had a higher income I used to love to shower my men with gifts. i don't think it was a good idea to spoil them as much as I did and I think they saw me as a mother figure rather than a partner. I had given them so much they got used too it and would ask for things. I think as long as it is moderated and appreciated it is a good thing but my advise is ladies don't spoil your men, it can ruin them!

She's his girlfriend right? I could see nothing wrong about it. I'd feel weird or awkward to give a gift to a guy if he's not my boyfriend. Anyway, in Japan I think girls give chocolates to the guys they like if it's Valentine's Day.

This is a very valuable question and a great discussion. When I saw this discussion, I read all the responses of this discussion before writing this. I am doing this for a discussion after a very long time; may be an year. Men also like to get gifts and a woman should gift her partner. In my case, I got some gifts to my husband like shoes, jeans, wallet, book, etc. My husband got me many gifts too. He got me many gifts than the gifts I got for him. I don't think it is easy to get gifts for guys. My guy is a choosy person and I don't want to get him things which he won't use and give away to somebody. So, I always go out with him and present him things on his presence. But, it is always my dream to give him surprise gifts, but most of the instances, I run out of ideas. I want to get him some gifts as a surprise, which hen will like and use. Do you have any ideas?

It's not out of order. Women and men commonly gift each other in these times. I don't know where you live that it is so uncommon but in the western world its status quo.

i do-- i am a big giver. i sent my man a pendant with dragons on it that i knew he would like-- he does, he says he loves it and wears it everyday. when you love someone you can give them stuff even if its not a special occasion because life is short

It's nothing unusual a girlfriend gifting her boyfriend. We are always in a distortion that only girls are in the receiving end. In order to show our extreme affection, excess love, we would go to any length to gift her whatever she wants. Sometimes, it works the other way round. There are, of course, girls who reciprocate their love by gifts to ensure that the boy is always affectionate to her only. Rich girls also do this to show their command over the boyfriends. It all depends up on nature of the girl.

I do give gifts to my bf, I bought gave him shirt and foods mostly. I am happy if I have gifts for him cause I love to surprise him, only if I have money. Sometimes he refuse it but there is nothing he can do but to accept it. It's ok for ladies to give gifts, it proves that we truly love the person.

Well, I don't give random gifts in the form of something bought. Usually I will try to set some extra money aside for him to get something he wants though. Usually no occasion.

Mr. Pearl i guess you love gifts too.. especially from your loveones eh... for me as a lady i feel awfull when i receive expensive gift from my man. i'm thinking how can i show him how i appreciate it. He makes me feel complete,loved, gives me happiness and contentment so i'm not hesitant to give him gifts anytime. for me its not bad to give gift to a man but not to any man but only my MAN!!!!

I think it is completely okay, why not? I do get gifts for my boyfriend every once in a while, if I see something he might like. He does the same for me, so I think it is really fair. Why should girls be the only ones getting gifts? I personally think it is very nice to make others happy by giving them stuff that they really like, so I see nothing wrong with it, no matter if it is a woman or a man.

We all must be able to give in order to receive. It is a universal law, regardless of gender. I think it is awesome when a girl will gift a boy. There is nothing wrong with it and should be encouraged. You mean to tell me at times like Christmas that no women give any gift at all to any men whatsoever? I have a hard time understanding that. Giving and receiving is all good no matter whether one is a female or male. I feel that it is just proper etiquette to return the gesture with a gift as well when the opportunity presents itself. I have many times given gifts to men I know without expecting anything in return and without being given a gift first. Gender makes no difference. It is the thought that matters.

I love the feeling of giving someone a gift that I think they would like. It makes me feel good. I am not in a relationship right now but I still buy guys things that I think they will like or I like and hope they will like whatever. I buy men pretty unusual things though.. nothing simple like a watch. If a guy I really liked wanted a watch and I could afford it then I would buy it for them. I dont think buying someone a gift is only for men to buy for women although thats much more common. I rarely have guys buy my gifts. I try to get them to but they just dont want to waste their money on me I guess haha.

I've never bought a gift for anyone without a reason. I'd be afraid to just randomly buy a gift for a man since many of them instead of being grateful the first thought that comes to their mind is "woman giving gift to man = someone I can walk all over"

i often give gifts to my men. If i see that he needs something i will buy him one. he never ask the things, but it just a pleasure if i can give him something then he use or wear it. I guess the loved caused me did so..

Of course I also give my man gifts. Just like women, men also love receiving gifts from their loved one. The only difference is that men gets more satisfied with whatever their girl give them whatever is the cost. Most of the time, men gives women clothes, makeups, bags, jewelries, car, house, etc. But with men, they are contented with a simple letter with a t-shirt of his favorite brand. I guess, that's life and that's how it really is. Feels good to be a woman. But still, I never fail to give my bf a gift, even just a simple one, when it is his birthday or our anniversary. :)

Men are good gift givers. Sometimes they give gifts for the wrong reasons, but their hearts were in the right place. I believe that women are equal to the task at giving gifts. Women can also great gift giving style. One gender doesn't own this.
