This will be the first, legal Valentine's Day for same-sex couples in India, and a card company isn't holding back. Archies, the country’s largest card chain will stock the shelves of over 500 stores across the nation with gay and lesbian appropriate cards.
“We have been toying with this idea for a while and then came the court judgment in which it was clearly said that it’s legal to be gay... So we felt this was the right time to add these cards to those we already have for the occasion,” Archies company spokesman Yohan Arya said.
There will be two cards for gay men, two for lesbians, and one gender-neutral card.
A lesbian version says: “For my girlfriend from your girlfriend.” The gender-neutral card reads: “Oh how totally gay!”
How come we still have to go to an LGBT-novelty shop to buy cards that fit our relationships? [IT]
