March 14, White Day, is for men to return the gifts they received on V-day – called white day because of the specific foods that the candy companies were trying to push when they invented it.

White Day is for men to give gifts to women. The Japanese seem to like reciprocity. I'm guessing a day for women to give gifts to men wouldn't fly in the United States. “It’s in honor of White Day, the Japanese give-your-male-lover-a-present holiday on March 14″
