Happy Women's Day

time2013/03/09

International Women's Day (IWD), originally called International Working Women’s Day is 
marked on the 8th of March every year.[1]It is a major day of global celebration of women. In 
different regions the focus of the celebrations ranges from general celebration of respect, 
appreciation and love towards women to a celebration for women's economic, political and 
social achievements.
Started as a Socialist political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries, 
primarily Eastern Europe, Russia, and the formerSoviet bloc. In many regions, the day lost its 
political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love for women in a 
way somewhat similar to a mixture of Mother's Day and St Valentine's Day (using popular 
singing flower,record their love,etc.). In other regions, however, the original political and 
human rights theme designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social 
awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful 
manner.
