Love is in the Air: A Valentine's Day Celebration for Lesbians

The History of Valentine's Day: A Forgotten Chapter

Valentine's Day, a holiday often associated with romantic love and heteronormative relationships, has a rich history that predates its modern commercialization. In fact, the early Christian church celebrated multiple saints named Valentinus on February 14th, who were known for their kindness, compassion, and devotion to their faith.

As we delve into the past, it's essential to acknowledge the erasure of queer voices and experiences from this narrative. The original intent behind Valentine's Day was not to promote romantic love between two people, but rather to honor the martyrdom of these early Christian saints.

Celebrating Love in All Its Forms

As we move forward, it's crucial to reclaim this holiday as our own and redefine its meaning. Valentine's Day is not just about romantic love; it's an opportunity to celebrate the beauty of all forms of love – platonic, familial, self-love, and queer love.

Let us honor the countless women who have fought for their rights, their identities, and their relationships. Let us recognize the power of community, friendship, and solidarity.
