Happy International Women's Day!

On this day every year, my blog post always focuses on how WONDERFUL women are, rather than focusing on the many, many struggles in which we must all still engage to obtain, guarantee and preserve equality rights. Those struggles are what the OTHER 364 days of the year are for. Today is for CELEBRATION! *cue Cher*

  4. it is actually a big holiday in my country, streets are lined up with people selling carnations, roses and potted flowers for the ladies, and women are receiving guests bringing presents all day long. Back in Old Yugoslavia, they even had organized parties for ladies in all factories and firms and they would also get presents from their employers. No such holiday for us toiling men, naturally :PPP

  5. ps Debs, how is Cher a good representative for women? She was constantly nekkid, playing on the sex card and also can't cope proudly with getting old but needs to do millions of plastic surgeries.

  7. We women are awesome! Our day to celebrate! I was just watching a documentary on women in comedy the other night. It is fantastic how far we have come since the 1980s!

  8. @ Dezmond -- Women are complex and sometimes conflicted beings. To my way of thinking, Cher is as good a representative of modern women as anyone else. Like The Dude, she has endured, man. And unfortunately, Gloria Steinem has not made any kick-ass videos that I could use instead, lol.

  9. Thanks for the reminder about International Women's Day. If I didn't read blogs, I might forget entirely what day of the week it is let alone anything else as things here are crazed...I cannot keep up.

  10. I think Cher is an excellent source to represent women. For too long we were told to cover up. She seems to be comfortable with her sexuality and personally, I don't have a problem with that. I didn't realize it is International Women's Day. Personally, I don't really take stock into these things but it is nice to read about what others do.

  21. Republicans aren't reacting very well to "Day without Women day"

    Trump is wondering what he's going to grab now instead
