kaffy_rInternational Women's Day? Why Just One Day?
A lot of people on my list have posted this video, and there's a reason. It puts forth a hearbreaking roundup of the reality of living as a woman in a clear-eyed, un-sensational, impossible to ignore fashion. It was made in the UK, but it applies worldwide. And it's worth thinking about every single damned day of the year.
Oh, and if anyone should ask why on earth we need to celebrate International Women's Day, why women still insist on talking about fights for equality ... go to YouTube and take a look at the comments under this video.
