If you've been part of this sub for some time, you know that you can read a lot about how awful women can be too. Take this as a reminder that this is not the full picture of reality, it's just the extension of the things we normally don't get to see.
Let's take a moment to appreciate the good positive women and feminine role models of our life's today and the time we spent with them. The mothers, grandmothers, sisters and friends. Even though we live in times we hear and read nothing else but praise for women from mainstream media and the current culture doesn't mean it's unnecessary or wrong for us to do so. Being grateful for the women in our life's doesn't take away anything from men. On the contrary.
Let's be grateful for all the women out there who continue to fight for our cause, who sacrificed their time and risked their reputation, who were brave enough to fight for the things they think are right.
You know you would appreciate it, if it were the other way around.

Why is a Day required to acknowledge 50% of the population? Why need a woman’s day or mans day? What’s the point?
Why isn’t it focused more on a group people would tend to forget like those who fought in wars or those who did heroic acts during the year? Just a day to remember humanity’s achievements? Just seems a bit mundane to have a day to praise people for being born a particular gender. Nobody chose it.

Yup I agree, a lot of holidays started out as something nice, but now corporations capitalise on it to sell you shit and make it socially unacceptable to not conform.
Difficult world we live in, where an social opinion can be changed by a hashtag and enough followers, scary that mob mentality can be so easily enabled now.
