Why don't we get rid of this "Day"?
Before anyone bombs me with hate mail, hear me out.
Women's Day is a day where we all recognize the importance, the achievements, and the role of women in our world. It is a day where we respect women for all their worth, and all that stuff.
But why do we need it? Do we have this day to remind ourselves that men and women are so different, and that the sexes are so unbalanced and unfair? If this day is supposed to have anything to reducing inequality and eliminating prejudices and/or discrimination, then this day itself is not helping. The existence of this day simply affirms that inequality still exists, so I believe that if we really really wanted total equality, we should get rid of this day. What do you think?
Just in case anyone's wondering, I am a guy, but I don't consider myself sexist.
