Woman is just a term; it simply indicates that you are female, and it does not constitute an insult. In the past, women was also a positive term. What’s wrong with women! What’s wrong with Women’s Day! The origin of International Women’s Day is not a simple matter. On March 8, 1857, female garment and textile workers in the United States took to the streets of New York to protest against poor working conditions and low wages. Although the event was dispersed by police who arrived on the scene, awareness among women to defend their own interests was planted, and the first trade union was established two years later. Under the organization of trade unions, similar protest **activities take place on March 8th every year thereafter. The one in 1908 was the largest. 15,000 female workers marched through the streets of the United States, shouting the slogan “Bread and Roses”! In the end, the Socialist Party in the United States chose the last Sunday of February each year as the day to hold commemorative events. This activity continued until 1913. In August 1910, the Second Congress of Women Socialists was held in Copenhagen. The conference not only discussed the situation at that time, but also addressed the protection of the rights of women and children, the pursuit of an 8-hour workday, and women’s voting rights. Clara Zetkin of Germany proposed that March 8th of each year be designated as the International Day of Struggle for Women around the world, and this proposal was unanimously accepted by the representatives present. Since then, International Women’s Day has become a global festival for women. March 8, 1911, was the first International Women’s Day. The origin of Women’s Day was not achieved overnight; it resulted from various struggles. It represents an effort by women to improve their own status and is a result of the success of the feminist movement. Many people disdain taking on the role of a woman, yet the world has recognized International Women’s Day, offering various ways to celebrate it for women around the world. For example, some companies provide various benefits to their female employees, and many organizations even give them half a day off on this day. So don’t enjoy the benefits that Women’s Day brings while at the same time showing disdain for it. If the company is capable of providing various benefits, don’t take them ； The office is closed for holidays, but don’t go on vacation either!
