FT: International Women's Day
Private
World famous





Today is International Women's Day, a day that in my opinion is not for celebration. On the contrary, it is a day to once again raise the important questions:
Why have we not come further?
Why is oppression still a huge issue for women all over the world everyday?
What needs to be done to end sexism and violence against women?

And ultimately:
How do we tear down patriarchy?

------------------------------------------------------

Have you done or will you be doing something to mark the day?

Well, for one thing women in middle eastern countries are treated as subhuman by the men there and we don't seem to do anything about it.
We should be working towards women in such countries having equal rights.

That's my 2 cents.

Today is International Women's Day, a day that in my opinion is not for celebration.

Why would this day not be celebrated? I'm Russian so 8th of march is a very important holiday in Russia, we all drink, eat, congratulate and embrace the women in our country. Why is it not for celebration? Why cant we celebrate how unique each one of us is and how our womanhood holds so much power?

Well, I said it was my opinion, and I never said it couldn't be celebrated. Of course women should be celebrated, but the fact that huge inequalities still exist is nothing to celebrate.

No one will be the same, I understand the point of being equal when it comes to matters such as rights and jobs and other fundamental things but no one is the same and everyone is treated differently depending on their unique traits. This day exists for the sole purpose of appreciating women and lifting them up no matter what problems they may face in the future, things will get better, but instead of focusing on making everything equal why not embrace the things we are celebrated for and just enjoy it?

so much of discrimination is based on sexism so it's kinda hard to think where to start
i'm mostly focusing on trans activism and being as inclusive as i can

i really wish politics didn't drain me as much as they do, i'd like to be more active on all fronts

That sounds like a very privileged thing to say. I am aware that I myself am very privileged, which just makes it even more important to raise these issues. For a women who gets harassed everyday or who will never be able to go to school just because she is a woman, I doubt there's anything to celebrate. Sure, in Sweden there is a lot more equality than in many other places, but that does by no means mean that women aren't treated like shit everyday anyway. Just look at #metoo, it says a lot about how our society looks. Men think they can just take advantage of women and do whatever they want, and the structures in society make it harder for women to achieve what men can achieve, only because of their gender. You are entitled to your opinion of course, but I don't think that is anything to celebrate.

Today a historical event has happened in Spain. 5.3 million people have supported the strike. We have left women en masse to fight for our rights. Historical. I am very proud of my country right now.
