Kate Matsuda asked This is the women's day. What do we celebra…

I didn't know it's a day to celebrate. I was under the impression that in this day we should remember that women in many cultures have been treated unfairly and we should do something to stop it.

The gift of being a woman 😒..(understand the sarcasm)

Like with some other days and months we call 'celebrations', it's more of a marking than a celebration imo. People don't take to the streets en masse to chant "stop killing us!" or somberly paint the names of the dead on walls, during genuine celebrations. On the Months and days where a lot of this occurs, I think we're supposed to be reflecting on more than Marie Curie's career or the fact that someone gave birth to us.

I don’t know, but in the last 48 hours I’ve read about the man who last year “choked the living daylights” out of his 70 year-old wife, Ruth Williams,(breaking 5 bones in her neck in the process) because he “snapped”, and who got sentenced to FIVE YEARS for her murder because what he did was “out of character”. (How many times have we heard that one?) I read about the man who beat his 32 year-old girlfriend, Kayleigh Dunning, to death with a crowbar (30 blows), and also stabbed her 9 times, after posting revenge porn to her family, friends, and work colleagues because he thought she’d texted another man. He got a decent sentence at least - 23 years. And I’ve read about 33 year-old Sarah Everard, who disappeared in London on Wednesday evening while walking home from a friend’s house. You just know they’re going to find her violated body dumped in a river somewhere. That poor woman, and her poor family. Not much to celebrate there, is there?

Not being a man, that’s what we celebrate :)

I’m gonna share something here because I saw it today and it’s kinda relevant.
It was a TikTok of a woman asking “what do men bring to the table?”

The comments were awful. So many men were like “well we bought the table, we made the table, we got the food you’re eating, we built the house” blah blah blah.

It’s like they all collectively forgot that a woman gave them life. A woman spent almost 10 months of her life using her own body to nourish and protect them, bringing them into this world, only for them to turn into a misogynistic prick.

🔮 1900s vs 2000s so much has happened in consideration of gender equality 🎭. The movement began in the early 1900s (before that women were truly submissive never to be heard and only seen for the most part.) 💩Granted life's not perfect ....but it's much better that what it once was. 🌺Most holidays are meant to commemorate and acknowledge history so 🍀 the future can have a direction of progress. 🍷 it's a good reason to say cheers.... and enjoy another day of life with hope of greater things.
