I think one day a year is not enough lol. That is a bit sexist lol isn't it? What about a men's day? There are 365 days in a year..we should split them in half lol. I believe it is meant to nudge the world and reminding us allof how far behind we are running where women'sissues are concerned.

I surely do! My wife is a woman. My mom is a woman. My mother in law is a woman. My business partners are two women. My sister in laws are women. My cousins are women... and the list goes on! Happy Women's Day to all the great women in my life and to all the women in the world!

Didn't know it was international womens day! I think it is a waste of time. Every day seems dedicated to one thing or another..fathers day, mothers day, pets day, bla bla...there's so many that most people don't even know about them anyway!
