Slightly different gifts for men on Martyrs'' Day

Women celebrate twice in March, and two days after celebrating for the first time in the month, men celebrate too.

A religiously tinged holiday

Martyrs'' Day is a holiday celebrated by men as an alternative to Women''s Day on 10 Marcheach year . It has its roots in Christian tradition, commemorating an event during the reign of Emperor Licinius, who issued an order that all Christians should convert or face death. However, something unexpected happened - in 320 AD, his order was resisted by 40 soldiers who refused to renounce their Christian faith and chose martyrdom instead, hence the term 40 martyrs. The soldiers were offered money and various honours by their superiors in exchange for their conversion, but the brave men refused and were thrown naked into an icy pond in the bitter winter near Sebastia in Armenia, where they soon died.

Traditionally, on Martyrs'' Day, men are presented with prunes skewered on dry branches with thorns and sausages as a symbolic reminder that their martyrdom is still ongoing. A bit of a joke, a bit of a joke, many women give their partners exactly that on this holiday, which is not a bad idea if your man likes plums and sausages. Otherwise, such a "gift" will go straight in the bin. We suggest that you give your dear one something more original and tasty - and we recommend chocolate.

Why chocolate?

For 3 important reasons:

1. The first reason is that you can''t go wrong with chocolate, because there''s virtually no person in the world who doesn''t like it.
2. The second reason is scientific, because in one study, researchers found that chocolate is one of the top 20 foods that calm men down the most, and a third of all men surveyed said that chocolate was their favourite treat.
3. The third and most important reason is that chocolate is also good for men''s health. According to research, it protects them against heart disease, blood clots and stroke to a much greater extent than it does women. The reason lies in the flavonoids found in cocoa, which are thought to
   are thought to protect against cardiovascular disease.

Chocolate is undoubtedly one of those gifts for men that will not fail to make them feel indifferent.What better way to treat your partner than with a delicious and imaginatively designed gift that will stay with him for a long time, even though it will run out quickly?
