I don't want to sound like an asshole...but if we are truly striving for gender equality then shouldn't we also have an International Men's Day? Or not have either? International Women's Day comes off to me as extremely sexist. The solution to gender equality isn't to push it in the other direction. Sexism towards men isn't the right way to do this. But that's just me. I don't support this unless we also have an International Men's Day, which we don't. And yes, I'm a girl..just trying to offer another viewpoint. :)
Happy International Women's Day to everyone! I hope we'll all work together to make this celebration unnecesary for reminding us that a lot of injustice is still happening against women. <3
