From Gloria Steinem:
"Happy Valentine's Day! I'm pretty sure the heart shape is not really the physical heart - which is very lopsided & not symmetrical at all - but the yoni, the female genital symbol. The lingam is the male symbol & both meant power & regeneration - until patriarchal cultures reduced the heart to powerless romance. So when little girls are attracted to the heart - even dot their i's with it - maybe it's cellular memory!"
