    International Women's Day (IWD) is celebrated on March 8 every year. It commemorates the movement for women's rights.

    As UN says: "Is a time to reflect on progress made.Is time to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities."

    And, I think, this is a perfect place to start the celebrations.

    Why is this not a celebration on the other 364 days - for without women and their achievements (literally) none of us would walk this earth. Perhaps men should be given their own special day - that extra one (like their rib) during Leap Years.....

    Thank you @iome343 for this posting!
