I agree... I've been also thinking of sharing other links... In fact I've just read an article on a young Indian woman raped and then burnt yesterday, then other articles about gender inequality present in salaries, in Hungary it's still up to an average of 15 percent... I'm pondering about "equality", with a sinking feeling in the stomach, looking at pictures of Syrian refugee mothers losing their milk, and giving bottles to babies (and they are the more lucky ones)... I'm thinking of women not being allowed to breastfeed publicly, or even show photographs of it because most media considers it pornographic, while showing half naked young chicks on the front covers is okay...
It's not hard to dig up a list of what should be looked at on such a day... It's enough simply to open the eye, and notice...
So here's a more fierce woman's day sharing... A Manifesto by Sabine Lichtenfels (Tamera)

"We women want violence to disappear from the face of the earth. We want that peace enters into the relationships between peoples, to nature, and in love. All that is young should have a chance to grow and blossom freely. This is our political will.
We care about everything that lives. Everything with skin and fur, we care for and protect like a mother. (...)
Women’s peace-power is a power to act in the world which is deeply anchored in erotic joy, in connectedness with all beings, and in global compassion. (...)
We commit to following the path of our female strength, and of a new love for men. For too long we have tried to emulate men, and in this way we reduced ourselves to the level of pseudo-emancipated marionettes of male culture. A new women’s movement will begin when we understand this insanity and end it. (...)
We give thanks to all men who refuse to serve war and commit to working towards a just world.
We reach out to men: Let’s work together to develop social systems dedicated to solidarity, compassion, and trust."
