I agree with A. International women's day is a day to remember the things that women have done. It reminds us how incredible the female gender is and what they have done. It is a day to recognize and celebrate all the things women have done in our social, economic, cultural, and political environment. It is also a day to raise awareness of the achievements made towards achieving gender equality.
I disagree with D. International Women’s Day will actually make a really big difference for gender inequality. Celebrating something will often help you see it's worth and see it's importance. Celebrating women will help men to see their worth and to appreciate them. International Women's Day is a day specifically set aside to celebrate all the ordinary women who have done extraordinary things throughout history. International Women's Day is also a day for women to advocate for their rights. Women's international day is not just about recognising women, it is also a day of celebrating the equality that women have. It is a day which encourages us to taking action and promoting gender equality. By engaging in this celebration, you are indirectly raising awareness which can contribute to creating a more equal society for everyone.
I agree with option D and think that International Women's Day will make a really big difference in gender inequality.
But I disagree with option A. Celebrating Women's Day will bring confidence in the women and make them think the fight is over, but the reality is that the fight for gender inequality has just started. In remote areas, practices like stereotypes and abortion still exist which is a major global concern.
I agree because the fight isn't over for women. There still are disagreements around the world on the topic of 'should women and girls be treated the same men and boys?'
Option D makes sense to me because the more people learn on this day the more respect they earn.
sadly I am going to have to partially disagree with your opinion. I believe that gender is a very difficult subject to discuss as if you seem like you swing to far to one gender you seem to get penalized for believing in a stereotype when the matter of the fact is that all you want is equality for men and women hence why this topic is so widely unspoken about. my view is that in first world contrives the gender barrier is being broken very quickly with new generations seeing each other all as equal unlike the older generation but as they die out i believe so will the vast majority of this gender barrier.
That's an interesting point. Can you think of ways in which the older generation could be brought on board with 'breaking the gender barrier' ? Also, why do you think the older generation don't see men and women as equal?
Older generations hold traditional perspectives on gender inequality due to many reasons.
Firstly, the fact that those societal norms were ingrained into them in their upbringing and traditional belief, the same way this generation is weaved with technology-you can’t live without it!
Secondly, Women were always viewed as fragile, lower than men or incompetent and few of them actually stood against that claim so the ideology stood.
Thirdly, Those generations were not privileged with the chance of exposure to diverse views and cultures which do put men and women on an equal scale.
Lastly, many of them were resistant to change, settling for the societal norms that have already been established, this is the reason why many ladies were frowned upon if considered different according some proses and texts at the time ‘it was very unladylike’.
However, there is hope, in order break the gender barrier with older generations communication and evidence is key. Respectful dialogue and awareness contributes to change as the individuals would be enlightened and aware of the great potential within the female gender and proof of the great works of powerful women can help solidify those claims, then it would be undeniable and very believable.
Your talk is good but I disagree with what you said that when the older people in older generation dies out, gender barriers will die out too. As life continues, the older people die out yes, but there are some people who still believe in those rules made by their forefathers and so they will not want to depart from it and would want to keep doing it as a way of honouring their ancestors. So you should see that as the older generation die out, some of the elders that are following will want to keep doing it and that is why it is still existing in some places if not it will have been put aside many years ago.
I agree with you. Option A can have both advantage and disadvantage.
Disadvantage in the sense that it is going to make them feel the fight is over as you have said and because of that it can lead to their down fall.
The positive side of celebrating them is that it is another means of encouragement and showing our appreciation to them. This will surely make them want to strive harder to cross the finish line and get victory also. In another way, it is teaching others never to give up or let go of their dreams but instead go for it and It could even be an inspiration to others.
I agree like you, also have its advantages and disadvantages but also I think we need to make a effort, a big one for LEDCs because usually there is less equality for women in the center of the point.
I agree because Women's Day would strike a huge balance between gender in equality. I a.so disagree with A because the fight for equality will long last till the minds of the public or men think that we r not good enough so we must fight. In my community women are portrayed as women who are supposed to be at home and wait for their husbands to comeback from work and serve them and repeat the day all over but that shouldn't be the case we should be and are able to do what men can do, who said what men can do women cannot do that's a lie.
Just to clarify - option D states that “International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” You are saying that you agree with this and think that International Women's Day will make a really big difference in gender inequality. Which of these 2 statements are you supporting? Could you also give a few examples of the stereotypes practices you are referring to? Thank you!
I strongly agree with digital_fern. I also believe that the international Women's Day will bring confidence in the woman's heart and she will stand to fight for her country. Celebrating the international women's day will make women in a particular country to be glad and will feel loved. By celebrating the Women's International Day every year, women will start to build their faith and be courageous. With support from the male folks, organisations and the government, marginalized women will achieve great things.
I disagree with you because international women's day is a day women are celebrated. Women do a lot in the world and deserve a day of celebration as it reminds them of the works of their determination and efforts. They have dedicated so much in the society and so that is why i agree with option A ,but I disagree with option D because women deserve to be celebrated for all their hard work.
I strongly disagree with you because there are some places where there is international women day but the women are still harassed. I agree with A because I think international women day won't make a difference.
HELLO!
I disagree with you if people continue to celebrate international women's day equality will be achieved faster and gender inequality started long ago and in some few more years or decades equality might be achieved. And when you said you agree with opinion D I quickly disagree with you it makes a huge difference.
THANK YOU!
I agree with you because women have an important place in our life.
Also It's an opportunity to celebrate women's accomplishments. History bursts with important events that have made the world a better place. Women have always played essential roles in the movements for voting rights, civil rights in addition we must keep giving our mothers gifts.
On the other hand,i disagree with point D because they know that we really appreciate their hard effort .
Celebrating Women's Day is essential to boost women's confidence and give them hope that gender equality can be achieved. Unfortunately, in my country, women are still not given equal rights and opportunities. They are mostly confined to the role of housewives and are not allowed to participate in political affairs. But by celebrating Women's Day, we can not only empower women but also raise awareness about the need for gender equality. It's time to break the barriers and give women the chance to shine in all aspects of life.
That is sad that in your country women still aren't given equal opportunities and rights. But I'm happy that want women to have equal rights. But I have one question. Why do you think your country doesn't give women equal rights or opportunities?
I think that the reason why our country doesn't give equal rights or opportunities is due to our mindset. The citizens in my country are still living in the past and are not ready to understand that we are in a new and developed era, so some things that were happening in the past can be stopped now.
However, I would like to say that women in my country are not given equal opportunities as men to some extent due to the risks of the job. F or example: I don't think that a woman can do masonry work that requires then to do a lot of shovelings, carry heavy cement blocks, etc. for a whole day. I also don't think that woman can be driving for more than two hours when it is 11:00pm at night. It would not be safe for them.
There was recently a robbery that happened in a bus, the driver who was a male had total control over the situation, and nobody was hurt, do you think that a woman would be able to handle that situation calmly?
In answer to your final sentence, devoted_starfish, yes I do! In fact, women are often a lot better at resolving highly stressful situations (such as a robbery) than men.
Hello articulate moment
I concur with what you are saying as option A says that ''International Women's day is great because it reminds us on how incredible women are. As we know it today, there are many women that have have had a great impact on the lives of countless people. They include the following;
1. Dr. Dora Akunyili (1953-2014):
Dr. Dora Akunyili was born on the 14th of July, 2014 in Makurdi, Benue State, Nigeria. She was the daughter of Chief Paul Young Edemobi. She impacted on the planet at large by drastically reducing the rate of drug abuse after she watched her sister die at the age of 21 because she had illegal drugs injected into her body in order to cure diabetes. She is remembers to be the Nigerian woman who has the highest amount of awards with a total of about 900 awards in her lifetime. She will always be remembered as a woman of integrity who changed the world with her diligence towards stopping the use of illegal drugs.
Thank You!!!
I agree because celebrating international women's day come motivate and inspire other women to pursue their ambitions. This is because some women may feel that they are not capable of making a difference or achieving their goals but by seeing the progress and impact that other women are making they can feel empowered to do the same.
So in my opinion celebrating international women day is important because it helps to raise awareness about the achievement of women and the importance of gender equality. This will inspire women to pursue their own ambitions and make a positive impact in their communities.
I think that many women need to be inspired by other women because they often feel insecure about their rights.
International Women's Day is a fantastic opportunity to increase women's independence and sense of acceptance in society.
International Women's Day ought to be recognised by all communities, in my opinion.
Hello peaceful penguin
I agree with you that many women need to be inspired and they need to have hope because the need for women to have faith in themselves is good. It is good and fantastic because when women have faith in themselves the country has an advantageous opportunity because with the women's skills and determination, the country can become a better place. Therefore, I feel the International Women's day can help positively to inspire them towards achieving greatness.
THANK YOU.
I agree with you celebrating women and dedicating a whole day to them is really nice and this would help them feel important and useful and not just like the inferior gender. Many women are afraid and doubt that they could really make a change or even achieve their goals due to how the society and the people that surround them make them feel unimportant and inferior. However, by celebrating women around who have made great differences in the society other women could really be motivated to try to achieve their goals and try and make a difference in the society. In summary celebrating International womans day would be able to motivate and encourage women in the society and also create awareness about the need for gender equality.
Thank you for your comment. Could you give a few examples of how International Women's Day is celebrated in your country?
Hello Karla.
International women's day in my country Nigeria is celebrated through organizing matches and rallies which highlights the importance of gender equality.
Some NGOs also organize activities to educate and empower women and girls. In some part of my country v
are cultural celebrations which involves musical concerts, art exhibitions and films showcasing the achievements and contributions of women in Nigeria. Celebrating women's international Day in Nigeria raises awareness about gender equality issues and also enlighten us about the achievements of other women in the country and the world at large.
I also chose A “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” This is because women are powerful and capable human beings. They can handle several tasks and do it well. I believe women should be celebrated, which is why a day has been set aside for celebrating them. I think one day is not enough to celebrate these extraordinary beings, but it is good to know that March 8th has been set aside to celebrate women. When we celebrate women, we make them feel loved and create a more balanced society for everyone to strive for. Celebrating Women’s Day provides women with the opportunity to know that their efforts are been noticed and that one day we might have a gender-balanced society.
I agree with your comment because, women need to be celebrated for all there achievements and struggles they had to do to make a differences. I for the motion that women have to celebrated because , this can inspire young girls that don't have to wait for men like, Elon Musk, Bill Gates Jack Zuckerberg etc. to make a huge impact on the world, we girls of the future can also make a huge achievement to the world.
One woman who should be celebrated is Dr. Patricia Bath the first black woman who discovered and invented a device used in surgeries known as larserphaco. This device was used to remove cataracts from a patients eye. This device has help many eye surgeons around world and has saved many patients from going blind and improved their visions. She was born November 4, 1942 and died May 30, 2019 at the age of 76. She is not only to black girls but to all girls around the world that you do anything if you put to mind to and never give up.
I also agree with option A. ''International Women's Day is great because it reminds us on how incredible women are." I think that this importance of international women's day also plays a significant role in the future of women's right movement. On international women's day we get to celebrate late, current and even upcoming women and this can stand as encouragement to women all over the globe. Let's use Greta Thunberg as an example, she never let her age get in the way of her achievement and as far as I am concerned, she is classified as a woman, she can stand as a notable model to all young girls who are about to be women and this act alone reminds all women how incredible they are.
I think that women are incredible and having a special day to celebrate them can boost their moral a lot.
THANKYOU.
I disagree with you articulate_moment as I think that there should be a day for men and another for women or nothing. I think that should be like that because, if we want gender equality, we should have the same things for both men and women or nothing for anyone, because in any other way it will be unfair for one of the parts.
I agree with you when you disagree with D but only if it keeps been celebrated like now-a-days, because it seems like women are also important, but as men´s do not have a day some people cuold look at it as controversial, because il could seem tthat women are more important
Hi allowing_piano, did you know there is an International Men's Day too? It occurs on the 19th November every year. If the day exists, why do you think it is not marked or celebrated in the same way as International Women's day?
Hello Steff,
I think that's a great question to ask. I've been thinking about issues around gender equality and gender inclusivity in society. From all the research and information I have gathered on this issue, I have come to the conclusion that it will never be possible to provide equality or equal rights to the common man and woman. You may think otherwise and that's absolutely fine but you may also argue with me regarding my opinion but the reason why I am saying this statement is because Throughout history whenever we tried to make equality in that process we have lower one whether its men or women, to prove one superiority once capability we have tried to continuously lower the other. It is also absolutely true that women have been neglected and still being neglected in various sector and it is important for them to get the opportunity. But I have to say that in the present context we have worked hard and we have created some kind of justification or justice for the women's and their right to prove themselves. On the path to success or justification, women did not obtain their rights as readily as men did. Therefore, I perceive women's rights, and the International Women's Day, as significant milestones that we have diligently worked towards achieving. That's why they hold greater prominence and recognition in our collective consciousness. That's why I think the international Women's Day is more known than the international men's day because in ancient history we have seen over and over that man were giving a significant position or right to rule and lead others that women were not given It took a lot of trials and a lot of protest for women to get this right , that's why we appreciate this more but I do think International men's day should also get some kind of recognition because they also deserves to celebrate themselves.
Hi Steff @ Topical Talk, I didn't knew about it at all (thanks for the fact), but I think it is not as highlighted as International Women's day because, in my opinion, women think that they are less recognised in society (which I think is true, because in now-a-days society we talk more about men's successes than women's ones) and women want men also to recognise them as women recognise men's successes. I think Men's day is less celebrated because men are already recognised so they do not need to use that day for society to see what they have done, so this is why I think Women's International Day is more known and celebrated than Men's International Day.
Hello Steff.
I knew about International Men's Day but your question made me think and I think I have the answer.
I believe that Women's Day is celebrated more or is better known because the media or people want it that way. Here in Spain we have some examples in the media. Recently a Spaniard won a fighting competition (UFC) and I saw a lot of news criticizing him, but also a few months ago that same newspaper talked about a woman in a fighting competition and said that she was a star to watch.
I also think it is less known because there is more gender inequality in women and if the media comments on that day because of inequality it will mean that they will not comment on men's day because there is less or no inequality for them.
I understand where you are coming from. If we want to fight gender inequality, women must not be put above men. That being said, there is also a day to celebrate men. November 19, International Men's Day. This a day that is set aside to celebrate all the wonderful things men are also doing. The thing is, for equality to be achieved, no gender should be seen above the other. There is even a system in which women are superior to men, matriarchy. For inequality to be completely solved, matriarchy must also be stopped. Just because females have been discriminated, does not mean men would be pushed aside and women made superior. Equality is a state of being the same when it comes to status, rights and even opportunities. For equality to stand both voices must be heard. No gender can exist without the other and the purpose of equality is for everyone to realize this. If equality is properly achieved, both men and women will be protected from discrimination and harassment. This is something I think we should strive for.
Hi allowing_piano do you think men or women are currently seen as more important than the other at the moment - if so which, and why?
Hello Jenny,
Personally I think the topic of gender is really toxic at the present. I think gender equality is nothing like it used to be and that doesn't help society. Now a days, if you just think about the word equality, people think that if they are feminists, they need to hate men, and if there are masculine men, they need to hate women. but honestly equality isn't about hating anyone it's about providing opportunity. But Today, instead of focusing on providing opportunity, we constantly focus on everything else but opportunity, and I think this particular path around gender or feminism has become very toxic, You all need to understand that we as human as individuals are constantly relying on each other therefore it isn't gonna work if we say that everything should be ruled by man or everything should be ruled by women we are constantly dependent and we need to depend for able to create a sustainable or productive society and community for everyone to grow and improve. So it isn't about one it is about both.
Hi Jenny, Associate Director @ KPMG, I think that actually I men are more important, becuase I find men more recognised in society. I think this occurs because media, televisions, newspapers, etc. focus more on men's activities and successes rather than, from such a powerful place such as the information source of your country, making both men and women seen like equals. Also I think institutions should change because they are focusing all powers such as governments and important positions in companies (except in some places that are starting to change this - only a 7% of governments are leaded by a women), and I think both men and women are able to do this type of jobs and they should be divided fifty-fifty.
I strongly agree with you because every day is a celebration in the life of a person so I think the women should be celebrated every year and the same should be done to the men for the purpose of gender equality.
I agree because I also believe that celebrating international women's day raises awareness about the contributions that women have made to the society. By celebrating this day people around the world will be able to know about the achievement of women in different parts of the world. This will make women feel valued and important and they will know that they are making a positive impact in their community.
Also celebrating international women's day can help raise awareness about the importance of educating girls. In some communities girls are not given the same opportunities as boys and their education is not seen as a priority. By celebrating this day we can show people that women are capable of achieving great things and but educating girls is just as important as educating boys. If this happens the people in other communities will have a positive mind to send their girl child to school.
Hello articulate_moment
I agree with everything you have stated in your comment. I 100% agree with that A is the one that I agree with. I agree with A because it is a day to celebrate all women around the world for their hard work. As you stated in your comment, we need this day to become a reality because we have to celebrate women by what they have done in our society, economy, cultural, and political environment. Women have done so much that they should get a day for them to spend with family or just a free day from work. As you said in your comment I will say the same. I also disagree with D because International Women's Day WILL make a difference for gender equality. I agree with the information you said. Men should appreciate women for what they have done for them. If there weren't women there weren't be any men. So I agree with you on everything.
Thank you
I agree articulate moment! Opinion A is what I agree with because women throughout history and even now have made major impacts on our world, so why shouldn't we celebrate women? Women clearly are as important as men, but because of gender inequality, they are underestimated and treated worse than men. International Women's Day is a day for women to be appreciated and celebrated and I believe it is an amazing day. I also disagree with D as International Women's Day may change the way people see women and may even lead to them treating women better. The day is a day women's talents and potential is showcased, people being able to see how amazing and talented women truly are, it could bring people aware of how they underestimated women and may get them to change their ways.
I strongly agree with Option A and think that one day of the year celebrating the achievements of women is more about bringing awareness to how far we have come over the past years. Giving a day to reflect back on past achievements could encourage more women to strive beyond what has already been achieved. It's main point is to focus on how our society can do better, as well as bringing up attitudes towards feminism. International women's day should be more recognised as a day to think about making differences in the near future as well as reflecting and building on the past.
I agree because... Absolutely, International Women’s Day is indeed a wonderful celebration that highlights the incredible contributions and achievements of women worldwide. It serves as a powerful reminder of the significant role women play in shaping societies and cultures. For instance, this year's International Women’s Day showcased inspiring stories of women breaking barriers, leading change, and making a positive impact in various fields such as science, politics, arts, and business. It's crucial to continue recognizing and honoring women's accomplishments not just on this day but every day, as it fosters gender equality and empowers future generations."
I agree with option A because women are actually incredible. Women are the gender who multitask the most and influence the children (next generation) better. They do house chores, work and still take care of the family. Women are called the neck of the family, right? The husband is the head. This shows women's importance as the head cannot move or function properly without the neck.
I partially disagree with option B. Women have to learn to sacrifice their right to comfort most times to live in peace. Women shouldn't be greedy. Yes, women can be celebrated everyday through minor actions, but this particular day is set apart to celebrate women and their importance.
I strongly agree with option C. To repay women for all the unfairness women have been shown, International Women's Day was established to celebrate the hidden importance of women.
I am not really sure about option D. Yes, a lot of people see such days as holidays or vacation days. Yet, with more effort, this day will promote the awareness of women's importance in the society.
International Women's Day doesn't only teach us women's importance in the society but the fact they are also humans and are to enjoy equal rights as the boy child.
Thank you.
Thank you for your comment. Just wanted to clarify a few points you made. What do you mean by 'Women have to learn to sacrifice their right to comfort most times to live in peace' and 'Women shouldn't be greedy'?
Naturally, women have to learn to sacrifice some of their wants to be able to properly provide for their family and be at peace with most people. Their wants can be postponed until they have met the immediate and urgent needs of the family. Women therefore have to master this act of tolerance to be able to have a good family. Women shouldn't aspire to be celebrated all the time because they will get frustrated easily. Fight for your right but not for unnecessary glory.
Thank you.
Hi committed_writer, thank you for your comment! I would be interested to know why it should be the woman who needs to sacrifice their needs to provide for their family, why can it not be the man?
Hi.
I think women have to learn to sacrifice more often for the interest of others because they have been given that responsibility; to sacrifice so they can help their husbands take proper care of the family. Most men are too proud and arrogant to take proper care of their family so will you sit and watch everyone starve?
Women also have natural abilities to multitask so they can use these talents to show men their only use is not in the house. They can show their value in other ways other than house chores. Women can even teach their sons to respect women and also learn to take proper care of the house. House chores aren't only for the girl child. They can also teach their daughters to learn to sacrifice for others, yet, fight for the rights of women. Even the boy child can help to fight for women's rights.
THANK YOU.
Hi committed_writer, thanks for this. I wonder if someday soon there will be a change where wives and husbands are able to share the sacrifice, what do you think?
I also wish for the same thing; good family relationships, and this can only be achieved when spouses agree to work together and share responsibilities equally among themselves. Spouses also have to learn to be tolerant and listen to one another. Husbands have to treat their wives fairly and as equal as they would treat themselves. Women should also respect their husbands and their authority in the family.
Husbands, as breadwinners in most families, must learn to sacrifice their time, energy and sometimes, their personal opinions and wants for their wives and children. Wives, as I said previously, should be respectful, tolerant and patient with their children (sometimes) and their husband's flaws, opinions and authority.
We, topical talkers, are children in the family and also have roles in maintaining peace in the family. We can do this by respecting and obeying our parents.
If this is done in families, there will be a smaller rate or number of broken homes.
Thank you.
Thanks committed_writer, this is a well thought through argument
I agree because women's day is to remember the things women have done for us just like mothers day and it reminds us of how incredible a women can actually be in the real world for eg:peace making because they can negotiate very well and women only care about the work being done and not about their ego so if women were more appreciated and accepted to work the world would have been full of peace and harmony (in my opinion) because women don't really want to create fights or wars etc.
I totally get why International Women's Day can be seen differently by different people. Personally, I agree with the opinion that International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are. It's a day to celebrate and honor the achievements of women throughout history. It's important to shine a spotlight on the contributions women have made and continue to make in various fields. What's your take on it? Which opinion do you agree or disagree with? Let's chat more about it! t's important to have open discussions about it. So,I'm curious to hear other students thoughts!
I would go with opinion A
I completely agree with you! International Women's Day is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the incredible achievements and contributions of women around the world. It's a day to recognize their strength, resilience, and impact in various fields. It's important to continue raising awareness and promoting gender equality. Let's keep spreading the message of empowerment and appreciation for women!
I agree that it is important to celebrate the day when women worldwide gained their freedom. Women have helped men in various ways, and therefore, they must be celebrated, and men must support them in different aspects.
THANKS.
I do not think that the essence of World Women’s Day is to celebrate their freedom. They have always been free. We are rather looking at celebrating them realizing how powerful they are and how they can change the world when they come out to speak.
Do you think that women have often been bound?
Are you sure women have always "been free"?
No, women are not always free because if they were, they wouldn't even be featured in the media since some of them would have negative attitudes if they went out.
Women have always had a level of freedom, but some societies and gender inequality often restrict it. Some men impose bboundries, limiting women's autonomy. While some women fight for their rights, others conform to societal expectations. True progress requires challenging this inequality collectively. By empowering women to resist oppressive systems, we can work towards a future of genuine equality and restricted freedom for all.
Thanks!😃
Hi Harriet
I agree because... women are not always free because they are occupied with work at home especially taking good care of the children at home. Women are capable of doing 50 things at a time like they can prepare the children for school at the same time cooking food for them to eat and they ones they will carry and go to school, and they will prepare for work too, even when they come back they will not rest they will prepare food for the family to eat and wash the dishes they used and eat. Women are not always free because they almost do all the work for the family. That’s why they said that if they train a woman it means that you are training a nation.
Thanks.
Can you explain why you believe women are automatically the ones expected to do housework on top of their careers?
Why I believe that women are automatically the ones expected to do housework on top of their careers because some men are naturally lazy when it comes to domestic work like washing and cooking , also some men are too careless in comes to handling sensitive materials like CERAMIC. Men are interested in external duties or affairs like protection and provision for the internal affairs.
Hi bright philosophy. Why do you think this is? What do you think could be done to change it? Or do you even think it needs changing?
Hi Jenny
Yes it needs changing because both men and women should share the work among them self so that it will lead to gender equality, Men and women should share the work like men should provide money for the family then they women should use the money provided by the men to use and cook and buy clothes for the family.
Yes it needs changing because men and women should assist each other in doing house duties so that it will be equal.
Thanks.
Actually from my own personal preference, I strongly agree with you because yes, Men and Women should share the responsibility of the duty in the home as in a area where both Men and Women stay together.
So in conclusion, yes Men and Women should share the responsibilities in the home so as to enjoy Gender equality in the world and also make the world of both Men and Women to share the responsibilities so as to ensure peace among the family. So I hope we both are able to convince people to make sure that there is gender equality among the Men and Women in the world as a way by which to promote the aim of gender equality. Thanks.
I'm not sure about this because there are some point whereby some women will tend to feel superior because of this and will cause problem in the family .
So my question now is , how do you tend to regulate it .
Interesting point. Could you give an example of how a women might feel superior and cause problems in the family? Thank you.
I will use an example to explain this . In some rich homes where the husband can afford anything and the wife has love for money and the husband will be giving her what she wants all the time , this will make the woman feel superior to the husband and at a point where maybe the husband will loose his job and will not have to give to the wife , this will make the wife angry because of that love for money that has grown in her and this will cause trouble in the family.
THANK YOU.
Housework is usually unequally distributed in most places this is because the responsibilities between women and men is a constant issue. Normally it is seen that women have should do the primary burdens of housework, childcare, and other family responsibilities and this is improper and unfair. This unequal share of care responsibilities further exacerbates the disadvantages women face in balancing public and private life, impacting their employment and health outcomes.
In addition to domestic chores, there's also a phenomenon known as "office housework." Women often feel compelled to volunteer for tasks at work, such as organizing events or taking meeting minutes. This expectation may stem from a similar patriarchal bias seen in homes, where women are considered responsible for the lion's share of domestic labor.
While effort has been made, gender roles still lag behind labor force trends. Women still to spend a lot of time on housework and childcare than men, which affects their career choices, opportunities and personal life. It is important to recognize these imbalance and work toward a more equal distribution of responsibilities both at home and in the workplace.
I think it is because throughout history, this used to be their only job. Men went to war, while women stayed home to take care of their children and their house. From my point of view, it was somehow well thought, because men and women are built differently. Physically, men are stronger. I believe that the hard times they were going through didn't give them time to consider how intelligent women were and still are. From my research, when women got sick of being underestimated, they wanted to prove that they could do both the housework and have a carrier. They succeeded, but it left men with the impression that as long as they wished to have a job, they had to also do the majority of the chores. Slowly, it became more normal for women to work, but they were still expected to clean and cook. What really bothers me is that the main reason women were supposed to take care of the household is because men were supposed to fight for them, but now it is no longer valid. So why have women kept their roles, while men have changed them? Men go to work to earn a living. Women do too. So when this happens, I find it unfair for women to be expected to do all the extra work. From my point of view the remaining chores should be split evenly, between the two genders.
Somehow, women are expected to work at their jobs as if they had no other responsibilities, but take care of their kids, cook and clean as if they weren't already working. I believe that gender equality starts with certain people acknowledging that their way of thinking is a bit off. Perhaps it is a bit shameful that we have such advanced technologies, but struggle with these kinds of issues. What do you think?
I believe that whenever words like housework, taking care of children and fulfilling duties rest on our ears the first image pops up of a woman wearing apron with care and love in her eyes and tender movements , since it is believed that things like care giving, cooking , cleaning and looking after are some qualities that women attain naturally and have to be the ones carrying the load of housework on their shoulders. Often women are double - burdened this means that they have to deal with immense pressure from the house and the workplace . We talk about women and men sharing the same responsibilities and work but why can't we normalize men sharing house hold chores . If we ask for normalizing women working then we should normalize men performing house hold chores .
Thank you for your comment. Can you think of any ways in which we could normalise men doing house chores?
I think men doing house chores will take a very long time to be normalised. Today men are ready to do the same work as women but only when they are paid for it. For eg- men will be chefs in restaurants but refuse to cook at their own houses, men will be tailors but refuse to stitch clothes for their children, and men will wash the dishes in hotels but refuse to do in their own houses. The idea of men doing such household chores is still not normal to some people. Some people say that men are clueless when it comes to housework but no, men aren't clueless. If they were truly clueless how would they know to do such chores at their workplaces? The only way in which we can normalise this is by spreading awareness and encouraging society to accept men just as they accept women. Today, even some women think that men should go out and women should stay indoors. So, to make sure that everyone in the world normalises men working at home, we must set small examples. Often, we don't have to do something big to achieve something big. Sometimes small steps like asking our fathers, brothers and other male relatives and friends how much they know about cooking, cleaning etc. If they are not familiar with such tasks, we must teach them. When they would learn this, they would tell their friends, relatives and colleagues. Slowly, awareness would spread and men doing household chores will be noramlised.
I'm not sure about this because... Are you sure that it is only women who are not free from doing things, this doesn't mean that women would just crush the name Men. If you did your research like I did you notice that it is not only women that are being discriminated in Kenya the Umoja Uaso only allow women to live there for an unknown reason. Furthermore I believe that the international women day is to celebrate the wonderful things that women have done and women can do.
Hello Harriet,
Throughout history it is clear that women were limited and did not have the opportunity to express themselves freely, so I do not agree that women have always been free. Views on women's freedom are deeply rooted in traditional and cultural norms. But at the same time I have to say that the idea of women's freedom is often associated with the historical limitation of women, but it is important to acknowledge the significant influence of women throughout history. Despite the restrictions they faced, women such as Cleopatra, Marie Curie, Ada Lovelace, Rosa Parks, Queen Elizabeth I, and Jane Addams continued to make outstanding contributions and influence various fields. Their achievements highlight that even in a time when opportunities for women were limited, they still managed to leave a lasting legacy by demonstrating a degree of independence and agency within their respective contexts. So I am very neutral on this particular issue because if you compare the liberal tradition in this particular sense, they have the freedom to express themselves but it was not easy for them to establish their views in the society because they are constantly confronted. problem and they are ignored only because of their gender but in the present context they are actually the torch women of the society who are more open-minded and they are not so judgmental about their gender and if you associate freedom with a certain record then yes, they had freedom in the past, but they They were less willing to express their opinions.
Hello Harriet, I would like to answer your question.
I believe what I have seen all over the news. Women have not always "been free" around the world. Women have been judged and have been restricted from situations that men think women shouldn't do. Men have always stated that the only job that women have is to take care of kids, do chores, and do food. That's not true, women can do what men can and sometimes even better. Even governments have restricted women from driving, women's rights, refused credit cards, and lack of protection.

I disagree to you because... women support males in different conditions/ phrases, so women have to be honored how men are honored. Men are honored base on their success in life even though women help them,thus,women have should be honored for their contribution. THANKS 😊!.
Actually for a long time many variants of women celebrations have been established and there is such a thing as men's day and everybody acts like it doesn't exist, to say that women should be celebrated the way men are is quite groundless because women in actuality have been celebrated more than men as at many times people celebrate Mothers day, Girls in ICT day, International day of the girl child, and even more multiple times a year, acting like men don't even matter, and this to me is a very big problem it may cause and has caused a lack of facilities for men in the form of education, and healthcare which would lead to very sexist society.
You have a strong opinion on this, thoughtful_hedgehog. Could you give some examples of where men have lacked facilities in the areas of education and healthcare?
Hello Hemma@The Economist .
I think men lack some facilities such as :
- caring for younger ones.
- much knowledge of cooking aspect, etc.
But there are other things that men can’t do .
Thank You.
I'm not sure about this because you only talk about the men but do you know that there are some women who also lack these things and there are some men who can do these things more than women so I'm asking how do you explain this .
Thank you for your response. Why do you think this is? What could be done to bridge this gap?
Just yesterday I saw at least 6 billboards showing how if you educate a girl you educate the whole country, and for healthcare at least 5 women hospitals and only a few for the general public and this was just in my hometown, this has repeated itself multiple times as the amount of female only secondary schools to male is 10 to 1 and this leads to a high level of uneducated males who later become criminals causing general social unrest.
I would say i disagree with what you said about women always being free. Throughout history, women have often been marginalized and deprived of the freedom to make their own choices. If you take a look only a little in the past, you will see that women have always been made dependent on men in the society and have always been compelled to obey their husbands or the male in their family. They deserved their own freedom to do whatever they want. Even today we cannot say that women are completely free because still in some parts of the world and in some households women have not been given the freedom they deserve
I agree that we are celebrating them because of their power too but we cannot say that it is not to celebrate their freedom.
Thank you caring spring. I agree it is important to conitnue raising awareness and promoting gender equality. I wonder however whether there is not a risk that of a symbolic celebration and commercialisation. There are many events concentrated around or on IWD, but should this be only limited to single one-day actions?
Hey!
I totally get where you're coming from.
While International Women's Day (IWD) is an important day to celebrate and raise awareness about gender equality, it's essential to ensure that the efforts extend beyond just one day. It's true that there can be a risk of symbolic celebration and commercialization, but the key is to use IWD as a catalyst for ongoing action and change. We should strive for continuous efforts throughout the year to address gender inequality and empower women in all aspects of life. Let's keep the momentum going!
I partially agree that option A is true but I think option D is more accurate. I think this because people do celebrate and take into consideration the differences between men and women but it doesn't stay noticeable for very long. Many people forget after women's day and don't care anymore.
Hi steadfast_television! Thank you for your comment! I see you have chosen D and I'd be interested to hear more about why you think the day would make a big difference for gender inequality
I agree that women are celebrated for a day but after that, we aren't really noticed. Many people may celebrate that one day but I believe that we should all be reminded about how amazing men and women are everyday. I have to come to the conclusion that in my personal opinion, option D is correct.
I agree with opinion A that International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are because it reminds the world that how incredible women are on achieving success. This day serve as an important platform to highlight the contribution of women in various fields such as physics, chemistry, arts, politics, business,sports etc. It helps to counteract historical marginalization of women in many society. International Women's Day also brings attention to the ongoing challenges women face and serves as a catalyst for positive change.
I disagree with opinion B that International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day because it implies that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day. It is true that gender inequality should be a year round endeavor, international women's day serves as a focal point to raise awareness. It is not to diminish the importance of womens achievements rather it works as a catalyst for ongoing efforts to address gender inequality and a reminder that equality should be done every time and everyday.
I want to respond to opinion D that International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.
It is true that a single day cannot change the perspective of a human about gender inequality. International women's day plays a crucial role in raising awareness and mobilizing action on gender issues. This day serves as a platform to discuss about where women's have barriers and what steps should be taken to eradicate it. It may not solve all problems instantly, but it is an important part of the broader movement for gender equality.
I agree with your response to option D because the extent to which the rights and capabilities of women have been undermined is truly concerning. A single day cannot rectify a problem that has persisted for centuries. International Women's Day (IWD) and the story of women's struggle for equality belong to all of us who genuinely care about human rights, regardless of gender. While it's true that IWD alone cannot completely change perspectives on gender inequality, it has played a crucial role in raising awareness and mobilizing action as earlier stated by fearless mandarin. As educated individuals who support women's rights, we must collaborate to drive gender parity and create positive change. Like the saying goes," Two Heads are better than one", by working together, we can make IWD a day of meaningful action, moving toward a more equitable world where everyone's potential is celebrated and uplifted.
These are really great explanations around the benefits and shortcomings of International Women's Day. Can you think of any particular examples where the day has served as a catalyst for change?
International Women's Day has served as a catalyst for change in various ways throughout history. Some of them are :
1. Women's suffrage: International Women's Day played a crucial role in the women's suffrage movement. In 1917, russian women demanded "bread and peace " during world war 1. These protests eventually led to the Russian revolution. This event inspired women across the globe for women's right to vote.
2.Gender equality legislation: International Women's Day has been influential in advocating for gender equality legislation.International Women's Day celebrated 1975 as an international women's year and from 1976 to 1985 as an international women's decade. This initiative made advancements in legislation related to women's rights such as laws against gender-based discrimination and violence against women.
3.Women's rights movements: International Women's Day has been a catalyst for inspiring women's rights movements around the globe. Some examples are : women's right movement of the USA, India and South Africa.
I personally disagree with every opinion as I feel international womens day does not achieve anything by appreciating women and it should not be as well known compared to inerternational mens day (19th nov), bet you did not know that one. I feel that international womens day only makes women feel even more appreciated for one day although they are appreciated most days
I disagree with your point about being a bad thing that international women's day is more known than international men's day, there are actually reasons why international women's day is more popular. The goal of the celebration of March 8th is to appreciate women and their achievements, not because they are considered more important than men's, but because, through the years, they have been suppressed and constantly fought against just because they are women. Also, in my opinion, women being appreciated as much as men today is an illusion. Even though in the most civilized communities women and man seem to be equal, there are countries in which women's rights are not considered human rights, they aren't able to express their opinion, do certain jobs etc. For these women this day is vital, it offers them the support, love, attention and strength they need to believe in themselves and make a change.
Thank you digital flower. Women should indeed believe in themselves and be in a position to express their opinion, choose a job of their liking, etc. However in countries where this is challenged, can we see IWD as a catalist for change?
In my opinion, international women's day can't solve completely the problem of inequality in countries where women's rights are challenged. However, I believe that it could help, not by solving everything on this day, but by inspiring people to take action in general. In our daily lives, it's logical that we forget about what some people may be going through, that's why IWD can be helpful. Days like this remind us what's going on in the world and what can we do ourselves to change it.
I understand how you feel about your comment but one question is what I want to ask, I know both gender are important but do you really think men are more important than the women in the country or family? Why do you think so?
How do you feel it is reflected that women are appreciated most days? What examples of this can you think of?
HELLO!
I strongly disagree with you international women's day is mean to be celebrated to remember the things that women can do.
THANK YOU!
International women's day is a good idea because it lets the world realise what women did to get where we are today. As a female, I'm very proud and thankful to those women who wanted change. This special day is to help people understand that what women did was for some change. It wasn't until 1928 in the UK when women got the right to vote for a politician. Even now it it is quite obvious how women are different than men. Even though a lot has changed now.
Are you only refering to women who were publicly recognised for a psecific achievement? I really think that every single woman or girl on earth should be celebrated on this day for their everyday fight against stereotypes
Hi
I agree with you because women‘s day of celebrations for the women. It is the day that the women get noticed for their great work in the women today. Women should always be respected, loved and cared for because they rule the world .
I think the longer we celebrate international women's day and the more we celebrate it the quicker we can close the gender inequality gap by this process of speeding up gender parity , therefore we can stop celebrating it when women get that recognition . furthermore , why can we not celebrate international women's day when we still celebrate international men's day , which is celebrated on November 19th , it doesn't make a much of a difference to celebrate one day devoted to women and men the same way people get upset about black history month " why isn't black history celebrated all year round " , truth is it is but we just don't recognise it as much until that month rolls around .
I believe International women's day is an amazing event that should be celebrated each year. In the past Women have not been represented in the correct way and for me Women are some of the most intelligent and maternal people I have ever met. They in my opinion are more forgiving to any situation and we most also understand their deep capability to understand different situations and concepts. Think about Marie curie she made huge advancements towards Cancer treatments imagine the lives and families she has saved over all years. Marie Curie made Cancer advancements possible. And unlike previous scientists she was a Women. 1 in 2 people will get this horrible illness in their lifetime and we can thank Marie Curie for this. However you could argue this is their is no international men's day that is widely recognised even though this concept is being developed. Overall we should celebrate women's success stories. After all they make up (49.6%) of our population.
Do you feel that International Men's Day is celebrated differently and what subjects do you feel that it concentrates on that differ from International Women's Day?
Hello ,
We need to think about schools and education that bring light to International Women's Day .
I choose option C as it will bring light to what women have done which is great over the years .
A example is Rosa Parks . Rosa Parks was a black woman in the 1950s . What makes her so great was that she did not follow societal rules and did not sit at the back of the bus . This lead to that Montgomery Bus boycott which lasted for 381 days . This lead to segregation being banned from public transport.
I think learning about these women is great because as a society we will be able to break stereotypes and societal norms .
Some people might also think option D where International Women's Day will not have a great impact for gender equality . This is because schools may not remind and educate kids and teens to celebrate and remember what great things women have done for us .
Overall I think option D as International Women's Day will make a great impact as it will shine light what great things women have done which have changed the world we live in . It also helps learning about individual women such as Rosa Parks which eventually led to no segregation which changed the world we live in as a society now .
Thank you for reading ,
Good day .
I believe international women's day can be good but also very negative on society. Its amazing learn about female heros throughout history and the struggles that they have faced but women take this too far and take it for granted. For example, women are known now for their achievments and recognised for their constant battles by society which is amazing but now women see everything as sexist due to the day. We shouldnt really have a day but more of it bieng intergrated into normal lessons more often to understand history from others eyes. It may be argued that women's day is important and that it highlights histories problems with downplaying women but I still think it shouldnt really exist. Do you agree? What do you think?
It's great to hear you enjoy learning about women who have impacted history. I'm interested in your opinion that 'women take this too far'. If there is evidence that shows that women are still not treated fairly in society, some might say that it's important to continue to loudly address this. What do you think?
I agree with D because if we have a international women's day it wont help with money increase.
this is because it only appreciates women for there accomplishment.
I diss agree with C because women are only having one day to celebrate there success which is not fair because other things (e.g.) black history month have 30 day to know about them and know what they have been through.
Do you think there shoud be a women's month?
I don't think there should be a women's month because some women, not all, may become over dramatic and misunderstand things. Besides, it's not like women need a month to be appreciated when we already know that they are significant in our everyday lives. Most of the women I know already appreciate what are given to them and if there is a problem they address it properly without causing commotion. However, I still wonder why some women don;t appreciate what they have, and this causes unneseccary problems.
Thanks👍.
I believe a women who never gives her 99% she always gives her 100% to help us and to give us support so I think why we give her respect a single day or a month?! Like why can't we be her support throughout and at every moment as she does..so I think women's month is appropriate only for creating awareness but like giving her only respect for one month....
I think there should be a women's month because women need to be celebrated and appreciated because I feel that role of women in the society is under emphasize. In my country, Nigeria Men think that women's education is in the kitchen because that is how traditional way African men think. This is not case right now because women carry out lots of activities and responsibilities non-stop from mornings to night. Aside going out to work, being it office work or menial jobs, they still do house chores and cooking at home.
Most women do not have a minute to themselves and most of them even look older than their ages. Having a women's day will go a long way into giving them an opportunity to rest and take care of themselves physically and even mentality.
I also feel that having a month to themselves can help them relax and will be able to perform more and better and will make them give more positive and effective results in the aspect of relating well with the families and people around them and better in their carriers.
Again I feel A WOMEN'S month will give lots of women time to work on their mental health because most women overworked, are stressed out and frustrated and a time to rest will be very good for them.
THIS IS WHAT I THINK and I strongly suggest. THANK YOU.
Hello, Tiff @ Topical Talk!
It's important to recognize the value and contributions of women in our society. By dedicating a month to celebrating and appreciating women, we can inspire them to continue pursuing their passions and goals. Through opportunities such as skills surveys, women can showcase their talents and potentially open doors to new job opportunities. Let's continue uplifting and empowering women everywhere. Thank you 😊
Hey, Tiff @ Topical Talk!
Yes, there should be a women's month because we need to show our appreciation for all the women's work they have done in the community. For example Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani activist for female education.
Rose Parks is known as the "Mother of civil rights movement"
Gloria Steinem a prominent feminist and social activist.
So all these women fought and succeeded so there should be a women's month to celebrate them and others for their great efforts. Says the saying " what a man can do a woman can do better". Thank you 😊
I agree with option D because gender inequalities will always be around to remind us about the differences between men and women because there will always be somethings that men can do and things that women can do its the same as maternity leave men get 2 weeks women get 6 weeks plus women can do thing that men can do but men cant do somethings that women can do because a man is different to a women and that will never change so internatinal womens day wont change inequalities it just allows them to celebrate women winning the vote in the past but women get an international day all about them and men don't there's another inequality.
Thank you for your comments. If not a designated day, what are some other things we could do to change the gender inequalities in society?
I agree with opinion d because international women's day only addresses extraordinary things women have done in history and this day is about celebrating what women have done for society and making sure they are not erased from history. However, this day doesn't address the issues in gender inequality as it focuses on appreciating women. This day doesn't highlight the gender pay gap and why this issues is still prevalent in our society. Moreover, it's only one day where we talk about women compared to say black history month where a whole month is dedicated to talking about black history and what it entails and why racism happen in our society and many more other things. furthermore during this month the curriculum is often centred around black history and people are taught things that they might no have known highlighting racial inequality
Thank you for your really interesting points. If you could redesign International Women's Day, what would you change so that it has more of an impact?
I agree with opinion A as I think that International Women's Day could be used in schools to address popular events that, for example, have happened in history that could not be in the curriculum, improving the younger generations range of knowledge on how women were treated and why that should/has changed. On the other hand, I disagree with opinion C. I do not think that a day out of the 365 there is in a year, will affect such a world wide problem. If we want to solve this issue I do not think talking about it for a day at most will create any sort of impact. Replying to opinion D, I would agree, but I would also say International Women's Day should exist to remind society about sexism until no gender inequality.
I agree with opinion A because I can see in how International Women’s Day can cause an impact to the world its self and I think it is something that can help and show us the great women that live in the world or who have lived and made an impact to the world and it can show and raise awareness and show off women's many accomplishments in the world,
But I can also see how opinion D can also sadly be accurate as well as what has International Women’s Day actually done we have been doing International Women’s Day for 1011 years (according to google) and i ask what has it atually done for now?
Personally, when overviewing why we in the world have international Women's day it is important to note that we as a society still DO NOT have equality. Despite what many of us children are sheltered from there are many dilemmas, daily, women face and not men. Such things include, men believing we are not capable/ not strong enough to complete simple tasks such as lifting things. So in conclusion, international womens day is crucial in the development of the world.
I agree with this point as women still do not have the same stand in society. Women have had more rights and are seen as great in most HICs (High Income Countries) with job opertunities and education. However, in countries like Africa women are treated inferior by men bieng sent to marry as young as 13 as soon as they begin puberty and are never offered education. They are overworked with retrieving supplies, cleaning, cooking, babysitting and caring for others and are still seen as lazy. International womens day needs to help impact these countries to make changes in how women are treated by society and by eachover as those older do not even help those younger escape the cycle of abuse and sexism in communities isolating these young girls into the life of the genorations before.
Hi busy_trumpet. You have made interesting points about the difference in treatment of women across countries. Is it fair to say in Africa (a continent of 54 countries) that the treatment of women is the same?
Hello.
I strongly concur with option A, as this day shows that in this world there's a beautiful half of humanity-women. It is essential to take a day to celebrate and acknowledge the achievements of women throughout the history. This day celebrates the importance of women in the family, society and professional sphere. It is a reminder of the important role women play in creating and maintaining a healthy and balanced life. However, it's a pity that only on this day some men remember that there are incredible women next to them..
I would like to respond to option C, while International Women's Day is a salient opportunity to raise awareness and promote gender equality, it will take continued, sustained efforts to make a significant difference in addressing gender inequality. This day serves as a catalyst for change, but it's important to continue working towards equality every day..
Thank you for your balanced comment. What are some more everyday actions people can work on to bring about gender equality?
I would go with opinion A and C, this is because....
Celebrating women's day is a very good idea, the women's day is celebrated annually on the march 8. This program is being carried out because of issues such as violence,gender inequality, abuses that are being faced by women. It is also a day to recognize women achievement on earth so far, a great example is the right for women to vote and be voted for, forming of NGOs that supports women's and girls etc.
The women's day was officially adopted in the year 1975. The celebration of the women's day is to address various issues concerning the female gender. Every women's day program comes with a theme ( the Central idea). In the year 2023 the theme for women's day celebration is tagged " Digital Innovation and technology for gender equality, this theme portray how digitalization and technology had helped in promoting gender equality.
I'm looking forward to the theme of this year women's international day celebration.
Thank you.
I strongly agree with option A, this is because as we celebrate the international women’s day it reminds us of what some great women’s have achieved so far in the society that we are in today and also it shows how women’s have impacted positively and have greatly helped in the improvements of both our societies and the world at large.
International woman’s day is also a day that helps to remind us that women’s should be treated equally with men in the society without no discrimination knowing fully well that woman’s have contributed to the growth of the society.
I disagree with option B because International women’s is in the form of raising awareness and also letting people to know of the achievement of the woman’s and it is also a way of terminating the problem of gender inequality because is brings to our notice all all the achievements of women’s and that woman’s should be given equal rights just as men.
And also it’s a day that will reminds us that if we start to give that same right to women’s that it will be for the betterment of everyone not to only women because when women are been allowed to go to school as we all know that in some places, women’s are still denied the right to education, so when they are been allowed to attend to school, they will definitely solve one problem or the order in the society, and as we all know that the society contains both male and female, both men and women, so, it should be an effort to address gender inequality and reminder that it should be done everyday.
And I would like to respond to option C, this is because as many people that already have that mentality especially in Africa, gets to listen in news or to watch movies concerning the international women’s day, this is definitely going to make them change their minds towards women and start to realize that truly women’s are incredible in the society in terms of what they can be able to do.
THANK YOU SO MUCH…..
I solely and independently go with option A the reason is because, Women are or rather should be remembered each year to encourage them and also to make us the children and fathers to remember how incredible the Women are in the world when it comes down to the house duties, as we all know a world without women is a world of struggle for the male gender.
So in conclusion why am I going with option A is because women as a whole should and be celebrated every year so as to encourage them to do more for the world as humanity. Thanks.
Hi witty_ceetah,
I agree with your points that women should be celebrated every year to encourage them.
Here's a question for you, do you think that they should be women's month and do you think this will bring or encourage gender inequality?
Hi witty cheetah
I agree with you because women are meant to be remembered. We should be encouraged to celebrate the women . Some women in most parts of the are pushed around, sometimes rape and forcing them into prostitution. The women deserve independence and power. The world needs to make women feel more comfortable. We should encourage the women to do more and be happy in the world today. There is a saying women rule the world and builds the world.
In conclusion women should be considered in world today.
Thanks
I choose C because as we know women are undermined all over the world and the International Women’s Day would help us to know and remember that women are very vital in the society and also they are very significant in the society. Women's International Day is a day to celebrate women's achievements and It is also a day when women are recognized for their achievements regardless of certain factors such as: culture, religion, language, belief. It is also a day that calls for a change to gender inequality that still exists today. This brought about the global acceptance of the "International Women's Day".
International Women's day was brought about because women were protesting for freedom and equality so I believe that this day would help to bring about gender equality, everyone should be treated equally regardless of your gender.
I Agree with (A): "International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.
I think International Women's Day serves as a crucial reminder of the immense contributions women make across various fields and aspects of society. It is an opportunity to celebrate their achievements, raise awareness about ongoing challenges, and inspire future generations.
I disagree with (c):International Women's Day will make a big difference for gender inequality."
because While International Women's Day plays a significant role in raising awareness and fostering conversations about gender equality, it's important to acknowledge that it's just one step in a much larger journey. Systemic change requires sustained efforts beyond a single day of celebration. Addressing deeply ingrained biases, implementing effective policies, and promoting equal opportunities throughout the year are crucial for achieving true gender equality.
I Respond to: "International Women's Day isn't good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day."because While it's true that the day shouldn't solely define women's worth, it serves as a catalyst for broader discussions and actions throughout the year. International Women's Day can ignite initiatives, inspire individuals to advocate for change, and contribute to long-term progress towards gender equality. It's crucial to recognize its potential as a springboard for sustained efforts, not merely a singular day of celebration.
I agree with opinion A because women are really incredible and they have achieved unbelievable things until now.
Their mother nature gives to all a sense of security and love but at the same time their power is totally apparent.
They may show a fragile body structure, not always, but it is the person we come back for support.
Why not celebrate them and their unique characteristics?
I pick A. Firstly International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. It is also a day when women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions. When we inspire others to understand and value women's inclusion, we forge a better world. And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there's a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment. Also, International Women's Day provides an important opportunity for teachers, parents and caregivers to educate and inspire children and students about gender equality. Our world has a long history of discrimination against women (which has intersectional implications), so anyone can have biases whether they know it or not. International Women’s Day provides an opportunity to reflect on your own beliefs and craft a personal action plan. “Women belong in all places where decisions are being made. It shouldn’t be that women are the exception.”
I would totally agree with the opinion A as International Women's day is the event which reminds the world how much incredible success womens have achieved, all the progress womans could achieve are celebrated. It could be taken as platform which shows the achievement as well as contribution on important factors to present the strength the woman while raising a hope to hopeless woman in order to strengthen the mental, social and physical aspects within the woman's body.
I strongly Agree: Opinion A
"International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are."
I always Disagree: Opinion B
"International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day."
I alsoRespond to: Opinion D
"International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality."
While International Women's Day serves as a valuable reminder of women's achievements, it's essential to acknowledge that a single day of celebration is not a solution to gender inequality. Real progress requires sustained efforts, ongoing awareness, and systemic changes beyond just one day. The day itself should be a catalyst for continuous action and advocacy.
Hello! Thank you for sharing your ideas - I think it is very interesting that you mentioned that only one day is not a solution to tackling gender inequality. You mentioned that this day should be a catalyst for continuous action - do you think that this has happened over the last couple of years after celebrating International Women's Day?
Hello,
Firstly, I would like to say that it will be good to have a day dedicated to women because they are very important in our community and often discriminated and forgotten. So, I would really love the idea of an international women day to remind us of the importance of the feminine gender and the importance of feminism in our country and the world at large.
Secondly, women don't necessarily need to be celebrated only one day but everyday so that they can be continuously reminded of their significance to the society.
In addition, it will make a big difference in combating gender inequality because it may boost women' prestige and courage and help them to see that everyone should be equally treated.
In conclusion, women should often be celebrated and recognized for their credible effort. We could appreciate and encourage women in our community by being respectful to them, standing along with gender equality and listen to the opinion of women.
THANK YOU!!!
Okay reasoning_knowledge I highly concede with what you have just stated because I understand that women deserve to be treated equally and be celebrated.
Also, it will be really nice if they had a day to be remembered and celebrated to be able to know their significance.
Hello
Well its a mix of emotions between A and B, this is because in the first option which says 'international women's day reminds the world about how incredible women are'. I agree with this because the achievement of women are greatly overlooked set side bye side with that of men, so on the international women's day aware of such accomplishment like Marie curie, the first woman to receive a noble price or Rosa parks who was arrested because she refused to give up her seat in a bus to a white person, she was a big contribution to the fight against racial discrimination. on international women's day, people all round the world can acknowledge these achievements.
Also, in respect to option B, as much as the international women's day is important, it might also give them the mindset that women are only to be acknowledged only on this day.
Thank you
Hi!,
-I agree with opinion A: “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” It's crucial to highlight and celebrate women's achievements and contributions to society.Women have shown they can do anything men can, so it's great to celebrate their achievements on International Women's Day.
- I disagree with opinion B: “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” While it's true that women should be celebrated every day, having a dedicated day helps to raise awareness and foster discussions about gender equality throughout the year.
- I'd like to respond to opinion C: “International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality.” While International Women's Day raises awareness and sparks conversations about gender inequality, meaningful change requires ongoing efforts and actions beyond just one day. It's a step in the right direction, but sustained advocacy and policy changes are needed to achieve true gender equality.
Thank you!
I go with option A as it makes us realise the importance of women's in our life..we all should respect womens as they are the one who gives us birth to this fantastic world as a mother,she can be our sister,daughter,a companion or can be in any form to give us support like a backbone..sometimes I even think there shouldn't be women's day celebrated because its not a single day she deserves appreciation or respect but a women deserves it throughout her life..but still international women's day can bring a change in ourselves and our way see womens..sometimes I think how can men be more powerful and be superior?..as womens only give them birth..so instead on demotivating them we should encourage them in different fields like sports, academics and other.."A small step today can open the doors of equality in future"
I agree with option A that says international women's day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are. World international women's day remind us on the great achievements women have brought to the world like the economic,social and cultural achievement. International women's day is a time to reflect on the progress made,call for change and to celebrate the acts of courage exhibited by incredible women.
The international women's day is also an opportunity to raise funds for women's issues,also an opportunity to reflect on your own life against the discrimination women have faced and a day to celebrate women's accomplishment.
I agree with A's opinion because Women are the ones who are very responsible, caring, and sensitive, and they are the ones who give birth to the next generation so, women should be treated with high priority.
I disagree with the D opinion. Probably this day makes a difference in gender equality because on this day only everyone understands the importance of women.
Hello everyone,
I am totally agree with the opinion (A) that “ International women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” This opinion is important because it highlights or shows the importance of celebrating and accept the winning, power, and benefaction of women globally. International women’s Day helps as a powerful policy to support for gender equality, raise awareness about women’s rights, and cause positive change. Lastly, By accepting the unbelievable power and flexibility of women, this day encourages society to respect and support women in all aspects of life.
Thank you!!☺️
I agree with the third option because on Women's Day, many people may realize the importance of women. Several large industries use this occasion to showcase their support through new articles, short films, or even a few words. These small gestures can have a significant impact and further promote gender equality. I disagree with option D as the celebration of Women's Day should indeed influence people's mentalities. As for option B, I think it is good to celebrate Women's Day once a year. If it were celebrated every day, people might start taking it for granted and not pay much attention to it. It is not just a day to give women importance for one day, but to emphasize their significance in society in on day.
Hi,
I do agree with option A which states that “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” I believe that women should be given even treatment with men to give them a sense of belonging because if men are allowed to have international day's for themselves why can't women also have theirs?
I feel that in order to bring about complete gender equality in our society we have to start from somewhere little such as giving even right to both gender which includes also allowing women have international days, active participation in politics, equal education with men, etc. Also speaking from how women are not given complete right as men in Nigeria the international women's day serves as a day of reminder to we all on how women are special and important and the need for we all to make effort to see to gender equality.
Thank You.
I agree with A as in today's word woman's work is mostly undervalued and underestimated. The National Woman's Day is the opportunity for everyone to rethink ther judgement to women and start appreciating their contribution to everyone's life. Furthermore i completely disagree with B as this day doesn't get through the message that women should be appreciated only once a year. Instead throughout this day people get the idea that they are supposed to be thankful every day of their lives for every woman to stand by them and achieve such amazing accoplicements
I agree with C because if women all across the globe have one day that they celebrate just for them, that will remind the rest of the world that women are there. Doing jobs, taking care of children, facing hardships, and being celebrated.
I disagree with B because it doesn't show that women should only be celebrated for one day of the week, it shows that at one day, gender parity is incredibly sped up, that actually means that gender parity is a year-round indeavour.
I respond to A because, first of all, it is the most agreed upon option in the comments of this post, why? It shows that women are great, but that isn't necessarily unique about women, in fact, there have been more influential men than women. I'm talking about inventors, scientists, people who revolutionized the world. Not just famous celebrities or public figures. I don't think that making women look great is the priority, it is part of the objective but the real goal is to show that women can be free and independent from men.
Hi! Thank you for sharing your ideas - you mentioned that the goal of celebrating International Women's Day is to be able to show that women can be independent - do you think that this goal is increasingly being achieved after each celebration of International Women's Day every year?
Yes, because when women take to the streets and show men that they are equal entities in all rights. That they can be the president, parent, engineer, friend, and even doctor. It shows that if both men and women work together our world will be beautiful, with even more new inventions. When we suppress discrimination and support equality, it helps our world get a tiny bit better. This is what truly matters, taking small steps for long periods of time.
Hi.
I will go for option A, because it reminds women that they are great. They are hardworking caring and strong, they can do everything they set their mind to. This day also reminds the world that women deserve to be treated equally and fairly in society. Thank you.
I agree with opinion A international women's day is a great way to show our love and appreciation to woman. It's remind us about that they did to our nation . Women like the deputy governor of kaduna State hadiza balarabe
Hi there!
I am going with option A. From my perspective, International Women's Day serves as a powerful reminder of the incredible contributions and achievements of women around the world. It's a day to celebrate the resilience, strength, and accomplishments of women in various fields, from politics and science to arts and business. This annual observance provides an opportunity to recognize the progress made towards gender equality while also acknowledging the ongoing challenges and barriers that women continue to face. International Women's Day is not only a celebration but also a call to action to address gender inequality and advocate for women's rights. It serves as a platform to amplify the voices of women, raise awareness about gender-based discrimination and violence, and promote gender inclusivity and diversity in all aspects of society.
I actually agree with A.
Women have to be incredibly celebrated around the globe. To be honest, many of the stuff women do men can't survive a day doing them and it just makes women more unique. For example, it is scientifically proven that the cramps women experience has the same pain as a heart attack.
IMAGINE!
And let's not even get started by the labor pains. What women do are superior not only in what I mentioned but women are smart and talented in business.
I agree jazzed_ocean, women are very incredible as they have affected our society a lot. Jobs such as teachers and medical fields are mainly controlled by women. Furthermore, our mothers are women who took care of us since we were young. Without women, the population wouldn't be able to increase. International Women's Day is a good time to be reminded of how awesome they are and appreciate them.
I agree with B , because at many times I feel that people aren't talking about equality but are constantly pushing for the female gender, and giving them their own holiday and not having one for men is on its own inequality, so basically it seems we aren't making it equal but are rather creating a bigger problem by making it seem like only women deserve to be celebrated, regardless of the many fathers, male doctors etc., who are very significantly impacting society everyday.
I agree because In the world we live in, so many males will think that the women are better than them and they will start to go on strike thinking that the work can be done better by women and the will start to leave it for the women, and some of the work that some men do the women can not do it as well as men such as construction vehicle mechanism and carpentry. I also think that they should give men their own holiday for them to also feel like they are celebrated.
There is international men's day!
what I meant by the fact that there should be a day that men are not been celebrated more than women. This is getting to that some men are been humiliated by their spouses that the are not following the customs of the society.
Some people might say that if the customs of a society are not fair, it should it be OK to not follow them- even if this upsets people.
I agree because you are very right. Trying to solve a problem while creating another one is not helpful at all. I never realized till I read your comment. We do not only have to celebrate women, but all genders. Yet I also think the only reason people emphasize on women equality because it is usually women who get underpaid or lose job chances due to their gender. In all, I think all genders should be respected and treated equally
I think that international women's day is a good day women are recognized even though women need to be celebrated and acknowledged for all of the hard work that they have been doing. I believe that women should be treated equally because they do the same task as men and sometimes women do this things better than men but don't get appreciated. I reconsider that we try and treat everyone the same way . I don't agree that that international women's day is making a big change because we have celebrated it since 8 March 1975 and nothing has changed about the women's inequality it has not made any difference because we don't apply the attitude on international women's day on other day too.
Celebrating Women's Day is important because it's a day to keep girl child hope alive, it is a day that supports equality and encourages girls child to feel empowered. However, some parents still believe that girls shouldn't pursue education, which can create inequality. This can make girl child feels sad because they're not given the same opportunities. Every girl deserves to be celebrated for her contributions to society, whether she's in school or showing her talents. Girls can do anything boys can do, and they should be encouraged to follow their dreams so that when they become women they also be celebrated.
Thanks.
I pick A because...........
It is a day when women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political. Since those early years, International Women's Day has assumed a new global dimension for women in developed and developing countries alike.
Women are strong and independent that does not mean aren't strong or independent.
Women are the backbone of families and communities. They provide care, support, and nurturing to their families and are essential to the development of children. Women also play a significant role in community building and often take on leadership roles in community organizations.
You are right! Celebrating women's day should mark a day for them regardless of nationality, cultural economical power. Women as you said is the backbone of the family and these days have managed to overcome many gender bias.
I want to mention that women have Aldo been incredibly successful throughout the years and an example that comes to my mind is the owner of my school. She has devoted her whole life to her students and is a role model for most of us.
I agree with opinion C. Celebrating
Women's Day makes a significant difference because it reminds children of the vital role their mothers play in their lives, encouraging them to appreciate their parents more on this special day. Additionally, the impact of women in various organizations is celebrated and highlighted through both printed and electronic media. This helps showcase their achievements and serves as inspiration for others to emulate their great work.
Hello topical talkers.
The international women's day when women are recognized for the achievements with out regard division. Since those early years, international women's day has assumed a new global dimension for woman in developing countries. Women also have the right to be celebrated for. Women are very important in this world. International women's day call's people to celebrate the courage and determination of the women, so I really support A. It is important to celebrate the day worldwide because women gained their freedom ,so they have the right to celebrate womens day. Thank you.
I will go with opinion 'A'. International women day is excellent for promoting women social status around the world, and specially for women who have great achievements. It is splendid in the sense that women, specially in India, before 1990s were not given equal rights and opportunity to develop themselves in the best way possible. They were restricted from doing jobs and earn money for their family. Since, in the past few decades women had went through such dreadful and awful aspects, it is prodigious and formidable to give women a day, to make them feel proud and confident.
I'm going with A because women have done so much for the country they deserve to be appreciated, women also contribute to the well being of a society because the are the ones who took care of us since when we were todllers and still do it's a must to create a day to appreciate the kindness they have done for us. This day is an opportunity to celebrate women's accomplishment. Women have always played essential roles in the movements for voting rights, civil rights, labor rights, children's rights and much more.
I agree with Opinion A because it says International Women’s Day is great because it reminds everyone about how amazing women are. I agree because it's important to celebrate women's achievements.I disagree with Opinion B because it says it's not good because it makes people think women should only be celebrated for one day. I disagree because the day isn't just about celebrating, it's about starting conversations and making changes for equality. I pick Opinion D to respond to because it says International Women’s Day won’t do much to make things equal. I'd say, while it might not fix everything, it helps by making people talk about it and take action. So, every little step, like celebrating this day, helps us get closer to fairness for everyone, including women.
I agree with opinion A and C. I believe that it is needed to remind the world how incredible women are and Internation Women day is the most appropriate day to remind everyone. It is a day dedicated to the women to make them feel especial and to honor and respect them. This day teaches people to respect women and also help to build a gender equality world. On this day, different seminars and programs are arranged, which help the people to reduce gender inequality through various means. This day reminds us that women have the same rights as men, and we cannot suppress their rights.
I partially agree with opinion B. I believe that women just not deserve only one day to celebrate, they deserve the whole 365 days. Because without the contributions of the women, the society will not be able to advance. But if women celebrated whole year, then it will be an inequality to men and also, they will not be able to celebrate it properly. For this reason, every year the women celebrated particular one day in hope that they won't have to face any more inequality on their way of living or face gender inequality.
I totally disagree with opinion D. Men along with women celebrated this day in vibrant way. In this day, the men are bound to show respect and honor the sacrifice and role of women. In every part of the world, on this day, there will be discussion about women's rights and equality which will definitely have a role to reduce the gender disparity as all the people will be aware of women's right and gender equality. If we are able to celebrate this day properly then it will surely have a great role to reduce gender inequality.
I agree with option A. International Women’s Day is a great day to be reminded of the accomplishments and achievements women have done. It’s a good time to remember and respect them, as they have contributed to society. Many jobs are held by women such as teachers and medical fields, and we need to appreciate that. Our mothers, grandmothers, and aunties are also our heroes.
I disagree with option B. International Women’s Day doesn’t make people think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day, it is to remind everyone that we need to appreciate them, as they have done a lot for our community. Some people forget or they just don’t care at all. We just want to appreciate women for all they do. In my opinion I think that International Women’s Day is a GOOD reminder for everyone.
I want to respond to option D. I don’t disagree, but I also don’t really agree. Women will still be either respected or disrespected without International Women’s Day, so it wouldn’t really make a difference for gender inequality. But, at the same time International Women’s Day reminds everyone that we should respect and appreciate women.
I agree with opinion A, which explains the significant idea of International Women's Day by emphasizing its importance in celebrating the amazing achievements and support of women worldwide. It acts as an effective reminder of the progress made in gender equality and the significance of continuing actions towards achieving balance in the society.
I disagree with opinion B, which suggests that International Women's Day is not good because it may generally oppose the motion/perspective that women only deserve recognition on one particularly given day. Well its true that women should be celebrated and recognised every day, having a special day to appreciate their goals results to increased awareness and opinions concerning problems affecting women around the world.
In view to opinion C, while International Women's Day raises awareness and prompts opinions about gender inequality, it may not be enough to bring about an important change. Through education and cooperative action, this day can serve as a booster for essential change by promoting participation, difficult stereotypes, and aiding ideas on gender-related issues. International Women's Day can be seen as a day to think about the progress made and hope for more improvements in gender equality.
I agree with the opinion that "International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." This way of thinking understands how crucial it is to honor what women have accomplished and given to society. It's a strong nudge to recognize and value the abilities, skills, and toughness of women everywhere. I disagree with the opinion that "International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day." International Women's Day is like a big spotlight shining on the importance of treating everyone equally, no matter their gender. It's not just about celebrating women for one day; it's about using that day to keep working towards making things fair for everyone, especially women, every single day. Regarding the notion that "International Women’s Day will have a significant impact on gender inequality," I agree with this perspective. International Women's Day can ignite talks, rally people to act, and make women's voices louder worldwide. If we keep pushing and actually do stuff about it, big changes can happen in how society thinks, makes rules, and behaves, which can lead to more fairness between genders.
Taking into account all four options, I believe that the most compelling one is A. Particularly, a woman nowadays is called to play many difficult roles in our increasingly demanding society. A woman can be a wife, a housewife and a working mother at the same time. This indicates that a woman is an essential member of our society and without her many things wouldn't have been achieved. She is accountable for her children's proper education, she takes care of all the house chores and on top of that she works to provide for her family. Moreover, from ancient times, there are may women who have accomplished big achievements, like math discoveries and the discovery of physical laws. So, International women's day is a manner of celebrating their accomplishments and also a way of saying Thank you for improving our world.
The opinion I disagree is opinion D. Dedicating a day to honor women can lead to the filling of the equality gap that has been generated since ancient times. To illustrate this point, this day is a common point of reference where people learn about all the contributions of women. This way, the become acknowledged of their importance and they start believing more into the vitality of the equality between the two genders.
An opinion I want to respond is B. It is possible for the world to feel like women are treated better that men but seeing everything they have done to our society, I think it is proper to celebrate them. Inequality has a long way till it is cured, thus as women are facing a bigger problem at the time being, it is good to support them by generating a day for them.
I totally and confidentially agree with option A. The celebration of women's day in the world is very good because it shows how incredible women are to the world at large.
In the days of the old , women were maltreated so much to the extent of them lacking education, their education were believed to have ended in the kitchen. That's was greatly an African mentality, which really neglected women so much till the point of early marriage and also forced child marriage.
Women were the major victims of human trafficking, they were used for labours, prostitution and commercial sex. Women really went through a lot in the olding days. Women were forced into early marriages and there were also betrothed to people who might end up being as old as their father or grandfather.
With all these, I believe women should be celebrated because they've actually gone through alot. It is very important to celebrate women in the society, community, state, nation and around the whole world.
THANKS.
I agree with option A because on the international women day, if it's in the schools where students are properly thought, it is always interesting to gather and make up discussions stating all the great things that women has done in the world. In the olden days, women are not given the opportunity to speak out but in the world today, women are becoming presidents, governor, board of directors and I also have never heard where a woman misleads the people under her and that is because a woman can easily listen to people's opinion concerning ways to improve the country. That is why on the national women day, it reminds us of all these great things that women has done to the society and therefore makes it important for us to give appropriate respect to our mothers especially because some of them might have gone through stigmatization in one way or the other before we were born so we have to embrace them and present to them gifts on the women's day to remind them of how important they have been in our life from the time we were born.
Women should be celebrated in the world 🌎, because the introduction of women day to school would actually crave a very big importance to the society.
I agree 👍 with option C because the celebration of womens day will make a big difference for gender inequality. Women in Nigeria like Ngọzi iweala okonjo, Dr Dora akunyili, Tiwa savage are examples of people who stripped to pave way for the young generations coming after them.
The girls guide was founded to help the girl child who suffer from trauma in the society,
Nowadays you see females having the same occupations with males, these are things that can never happen before .
With all these I believe that the celebration of womens day will make s big difference for gender inequality .
THANKS.
I agree with option A because, it encourages us to continue doing wonderful things. We women are kind, gentle, and understanding. They are aware of each other and care for each others rights as ladies. They pause to help and listen to conditions or problems caused by different situations. This day also gives women a day to be recognized and appreciated for all the wonderful things they do.
I totally disagree with option B because, even though it makes the world think that they should only be celebrated for one day, we know that they should always be celebrated for the wonderful things they do in business and at home. Also we know that women aren't celebrated for one day in the whole world.
I respond to option C speaking about “International Women’s Day making a big difference for gender inequality.” I say this because with this, men would start giving space for other women to come in so that they'll see their effect on the business.Also that day will help men recognise women.
Is it true that all women are "kind, gentle and understanding"? This kind of statement is called a generalisation and it makes it seem like all people within a particular group behave and think the same way. What's the problem with making untrue generalisations like this?
This stereotypical woman that society has depicted is what led to women not having the same amount of power as men. Hundreds of years ago this idea of a woman being kind led many to believe they couldn't be in control and strong.
It is important that we try and change these stereotypes so that when more women begin to take places in power we are able to see them as powerful and independent individuals instead of the helpless and understanding people they are made out to be.
Well I am not so positive that its all women that are kind, gentle and understanding. Firstly, I say this because I have not met every woman on Earth but the ones I have meet are kind, gentle and understanding. We might just judge a women by the fact she looks wicked and mean but we might not know them deep down. Not everyone is completely wicked, okay I accept the fact that she might not be understanding or gentle because I have meet many rough women but I am sure that they are kind.
I understand the fact that generalisation is bad but, we have to make a few of them in order to make some particular ends meet. I don't actually see a problem with how I generalised because we don't know the women to the deepest part of their heart and even if we do, we can never know if they were good before and something made them like that or if they are just faking it.
i would like to pick two options that is option B and option C. Reason being because international women's day will not really change some people's mindset about women and secondly the attention is focused on women even though women most at times are not appreciated in society during these kinds of protests men are neglected and are not appreciated. I believe women have a say in society, but the two genders should be treated equally.
There's nothing inherently wrong with the idea of celebrating women on International Women's Day
Can you explain your reasons, alert_argument? This will help you to strengthen your point.
i agree with the first one and disagree with the last one
Can you say why, free_tree?
I agree with A because it lets people know some of the accomplishments by women and i disagree with c because 1 day won't change people's opinion
I agree with A a lot!
I agree with B . Its because women need to be celebrated everyday and everyone allowing them to give a opinion and have equal rights like men
I disagree with D because women will be much of a difference for gender inequality.
A, becuase woman need to be celebrated for all the amazing things they do.
I agree with option C. because men already get represpented alot for the jobs they do , and it is seen as all men are stronger then women because thats not really true because lots of women are strong and could easily do men jobs, they can do football , basketball , racing , etc. But i think they should have a day to be represpented because really women do lots of jobs what men do and are better at it then men. International Women's Day is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of their countries and communities.It is a day to celebrate women’s achievements and how far women have progressed in their fight for equality and fairness. and aswell it is also a day that calls for a change to gender inequality that still exists today.
Hello,
I agree with option A “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” because through out history we have seen that women have always been the backbone of the society. Women play incredible roles in a mans life. Be it as a mother, a daughter, a sister or a wife, women have always been the support system of males
i disagree with option B “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day" because it is right that women need to be celebrated everyday but if we don't fix a day for that, people will eventually forget about it. International women's day is a yearly reminder about the greatness of women. Also there should be a day when the whole world unites and talk about the rights and achievements of women.
I would like to respond to option D “International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” Its not totally correct that International women's day will not make a difference at all but it is not wrong either. Until we don't work towards bringing total equality between male and female in our daily lives, only one day may not prove to be very significant in bringing about complete equality
I also agree with option A because as a whole women are incredible and have made some amazing, life changing discoveries. But I disagree with you saying that "women have always been the support system of males" because throughout time we have all been support systems for each other no matter our gender. Even in the past men supported women by working and having an income and the women looked after the home. This may have been a time when stereotypes were very prominent in society, but if you look at my example they are working together to have the best life they can. So I disagree with what you have said because men have been just as much of a support system for women, just as much as women have been for them.
I think A because women should be important in society and women's day show that women's are respected in the community, but i suggest to have more women's day to show more RESPECT.
Personally, I agree with A because it can remind the world how much women do especially for their families.
i think international womens day is a good idea because we need to thank all of the women that have fighted for our rights for example some women have went into the war to save our lives . and to be our vise pecenent so we can have rules .
“International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality". This line is totally true, International Women's Day celebrated on 8th march is such an important event that focuses on the ongoing fight for gender equality. It's a great opportunity to celebrate the achievements of women worldwide and raise awareness about the challenges they are still facing in some urban areas. It's a main reminder to the citizens that we all have a role to play in creating a equal society for all the genders. We must promote this day !!
I support option A because women play a crucial role in giving birth, managing families, breastfeeding children, and handling various responsibilities. International Women's Day is significant as it symbolizes a day where women can break free from suppression and breathe a sigh of relief. Women are inherently powerful, yet they often face considerable challenges.
In ancient Nepal, there was a misguided belief that having daughters was a curse, and girls were married off at a young, immature age. Unfortunately, society viewed women as tools for giving birth, raising children, and doing household chores. Even among women, mutual support was lacking.
In today's world, women not only work outside the home but also manage their families, raise children, and handle household tasks. They exhibit strength by silently enduring difficulties without expressing their unease or tension to their families. International Women's Day makes a significant difference in our society by challenging the dominance and suppression women often experience.
Overall, women continue to face challenges, and their strength lies in their ability to handle various responsibilities without burdening their families. This is why I believe International Women's Day is truly great 👍
Are you sure that women can "break free from suppression" on International Women's Day? Is this true for all women in all countries?
I don't think that women can "break free from suppression" on International Women's Day as the day is more of a symbol of what they have been through to get to where they are and what still needs to be done to get this equal world we have all been dreaming of since the beginning of time.
It is also important to remember that International Women's Day may be international, but that doesn't always mean that every country will celebrate it the same way or at all. Some more modernised countries will teach about it in their schools or in the office.
However, some countries that are less modernised may not say anything at all and have it pass by like any other day. They may do this because they don't want all the women who have less rights than others to see what the other women of the world have. If the women in these countries see celebrations surrounding women, then it may lead to masses of women beginning to speak out against what is going on. This is most likely what their leaders are trying to avoid.
So in conclusion, there is no breaking free from suppression just yet, but hopefully in the future women will no longer only be free on International Women's Day but the entire year.
"International Womens Day isn't good beause it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day". In my opinion this line is wrong as we celebrate this day for the equality of womens. It's important to recognize that the fight for gender equality goes beyond just one day. Women's achievements should be celebrated every day, not just on International Women's Day.We must make equal effort to create a equalitable world for all. We must create a world where women are valued, respected, and celebrated every single day not just on this auspicious day. We must promote gender equality in all terms!!
I agree with option A because it reminds the complete world that how important a women is in his or her life and also how she makes their life easy . I disagree with option D because International Women's Day will make much of difference for gender equality because it promotes women right and also remind people to respect women.
I agree with option A because international women day tells us that women treats us like men as doctor, women can teach us like men as a teacher, women can get the major projects in company like men as an employee, women can be a good player as a men in sports even in each field of life a single woman represent the strength of each woman's hidden strength. So mostly international day give courage to women and also feels equality that women also have their own identity in this world.
I totally agree with Option A. Women's Day is a crucial day that we all need to remind us of the importance of the role women play in our society.
I disagree with option B ; "Women's Day isn't good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for a day." Rather, I believe that Women's Day is a day set aside to commemorate women and the achievements they have made throughout the years, to encourage women to keep trying to achieve their dreams and to remind the world that women are important and deserve to be treated fairly too.
I get Option B's point of view. Maybe its perspective is that people only celebrate Women's Day and then go back to neglecting or disrespecting women. But that may not always be the case. Take, for example, a national holiday like Independence Day. Just because it's only celebrated once a year doesn't mean that citizens of that country forget that they are free. Both are just days set aside to properly appreciate what people or nations have acquired.
As for options C and D, it all depends on people's attitudes towards Women's Day. If everyone is appreciative and supportive about women and their special day, then this single holiday can go a long way in achieving gender equality. However, if people act indifferent towards it, I feel that we will continue to struggle with gender bias.
I agree with the option B . International women's day is celebrated worldwide to mark and give respect to efforts made by women in order to get justice and equal rights for women . But, this should not be the only day when the limelight is on the words like - " WOMEN EMPOWERMENT" , " GENDER EQUALITY" and " GIRL POWER " , every day should be like women's day. We should make the world a place where any gender get their rights and break their limitations and boundaries , where women are heard and respected , where people accept women as leaders, where women are served with justice, where women are not seen as mere objects but are treated with dignity , where women feel safe and heard and they are considered as an important aspect of one's life. However I disagree with option D , since it might be that this day is not contributing much to equality but it is arousing awareness about women's rights , which reaches out to a lot of women across the globe which helps them standing up against the injustice and abuse happening to them and will help women to feel confident in coming out with their story and share it with a larger audience .
I agree with option A
"International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are."
The main reason for dedicating a particular day of the year for something or someone is to show its significance,importance and impact on the world today. International women's day is not an exception, it is a day made to celebrate and empower women for their excellence.
I disagree with option B
"International Women’s Day isn’t good beause it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.”
Simply because a day is dedicated to women does not imply that they only deserve to he celebrated on that particular day. It just denotes that such a day is special and peculiar to ONLY women.
Option D says that International Women's Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.
I can see why some people would say this because it is just one day and may not be that significant,however, I believe that such small things should still be observed as any small efforts can actually have a large impact on gender inequality.
l agree with A “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are. It does show how wonderful we are. I disagree with “International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” I say this because it does show a change. Even though I agree with A I also understand B“International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.“ Women should be seen as more important people for more than one day.
One of the options i agree with is A, which is "International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." I agree because women do a lot for us like helping in war. I disagree with B because many people know that women deserve to be celebrated every day.
International women's day will really make a big difference in gender inequality. In many areas women are treated nicely they are given the rights which the women's should get but in many places women's are bot given the rights which should be given to them. People who have old thought's are not happy when a girl child is born. This is not right people should understand that women's are also a part of this world. Many people's understand this but most of the people don't understand this. Maybe because of this International Women's day celebration people might understand the rights of women and start treating them nicely and in a good way. I don't agree with option D it will make a difference in gender equality. Because of this women's are not allowed to do what they wish to do but they should get the freedom to do what they want.
Good day fellow Topical Talkers, here is my analysis on the opinions.
Option A: "International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how great women are."
Analysis: This option to me entails that the International Women's Day is good because it helps to remind women that they are of high value and they can be great, it also inspires women that they can achieve things and can also be creative like men.
Option B: "International Women's Day isn't good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day."
Analysis: This option from my perspective is negative because women deserve to be treated better because of the key roles they play in our society like home making, reproduction, and many more, so I think that this is a bit harsh to women because I don't like inequality because how can someone treat a fellow human being unfairly, but I rather see this day set aside for women as a day for their free expression and listening of their views, so I strongly disagree with this point.
Option C: "International Women's Day will make a big difference for gender inequality"
Analysis: I am not sure about this option because women's day has been in existence and I can't seem to see differences, but this can be changed by the next coming Women's Day and in other ones to come, so I think that this point is dependent on both the women and we the men to make this opinion to come true.
Option D: "International Women's Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality"
Analysis: I am also not sure about this point because of the same reason as I have earlier stated in the opinion C, I also think that this problem is dependent on both genders because it is the direct opposite of option C and could possibly happen if we can't make option C work, we will end up with this option, so I say let us start combatting gender inequality before it is too late.
My Analysis in conclusion;
Option I agree with: Option A because it shows the world that women are of value.
Option I disagree with: Option B because I think women need to be celebrated everyday.
Option I think we need to work on: Option C because I think that Women's day can make a big difference in the fight against gender inequality
Option that I think we need to avoid: Option D because I see it as a way of saying that Women's Day is pointless.
THANK YOU.
I agree with opinion A. I think that International Day is great . Sometimes we forget that women have their own lives too. They are human too. International Women's Day reminds us of that.
I do not agree with opinion C. I think that International Women's Day will not make a big difference to gender inequality. Because, International Women's Day is only a day which is celebrated to remember the importance of women that too for one day only. Many times women are neglected in our society. Hence, they are often deprived of various rights. International Women's Day reminds us of that. If one considers this to be a difference for gender discrimination, that would be his personal opinion.
I would like to respond to opinion B. Many times many people think that women deserve to be celebrated only on one day. But I think that is a completely wrong way of thinking. If a man did the amount of work that women do throughout the year, then most of the men in the world would be rich and influential today (data source: Bangladesh television channel GTV ). Therefore I think that the view expressed in B is not justified.
The above mentioned opinions are purely my personal. The above mentioned opinions are purely my personal. Thank you for taking your valuable time to read my opinion. Have a nice day.
I am completely in agreement with statement A. Women's day is a very significant part of our lives. It reminds us of the journey that women have taken to get to where they are today. I disagree with statement B because if that was the case then, for example, the fourth of July would only need to be celebrated that day. And all other holidays like Christmas should only be recognized the day of the actual holiday. That means there would be no such thing as (any holiday) eve. I completely agree with articulate_moment and their ideas about the statement. Especially when they talk about how Women's Day is a way to raise awareness. To conclude, Women's Day is a very important part of the year and it really does make a difference.
I agree with option C because it makes us realize that International Women's Day is taking us one step closer towards gender equality. It is celebrated all over the world to express that women are no less than men and are truly incredible. This day will definitely make a big difference for gender inequality by giving importance to women's actual role.
I definetly agree with opinion A. On International Women's Day, men are actually in a way educated about the importance of women. Men that discriminate women don't stop to think about the gender of the person that gave birth to them. They can learn some importances of women such as;
Women produce children
Women are very good at taking care of children
And women are amazing at multi tasking (They fill in many roles.)
What I have to disagree with is opinion D. If people are reminded the importance of women, they might actually be treated more fairly than before. Once men see how important women are to the society, they will treat women with much more respect, more women would be accepted for jobs (especially with their incredible problem solving abilities), the pay for men and women working in the same position would be equal and women would no longer be known as the perfect gender for maids and house workers. However, this can only happen if people take International Women's Day more seriously.
The opinion I have to respond to is B, sure that may be the case sometimes, but majority of the world shouldn't think so. I don't believe women's day is to celebrate women, I think it is to remind the world just how important and needed women are. It can actually be to celebrate women but that is not its sole purpose. People in today's world have forgotten how important women are including the women themselves it is important to be reminded which is why women's day exists.
I see that the purpose of your comment is to speak out in support of gender equality. However, you made some points that show you might have some gender bias that you might not be aware of. The points you used to explain why women are important, including having children and multitasking, are not actually great reasons why women should be seen as equally as important as men. In fact, these are stereotypical generalisations. Women are still important if they choose not to have children -- and men can be great at looking after children too. And women AND men can be great at multitasking -- and many women and men are not good at it too.
Thank you for your correction and I apologize if I sounded biased in any way. I will make sure not to make this mistake in future events.
I agree with the thought that “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.”(option A) as in the world only men don't need to get every right opportunity. As we turn the pages of history we can gaze at the inequalities and discrimination faced by women around the world. But when the girls raised their skills and voice, they showed them that they weren't behind men and weren't less skilled but the same as men. Thus it is good to celebrate International Women's Day and I agree with it. Also, I would agree with option D- “International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” It doesn't show how a man or someone else is discriminated against in society rather it has the motive to strengthen the power of women. This day is for the ones who lent their support and sacrifice in making women independent and free in the present era.
Hey! In my opinion i agree with option A since International women’s day is a great idea because it reminds us about women’s importance in this world and what they have done as a mother or daughter or sister or even friend or girlfriend. Every woman deserves this day to remind them about what they have done. Women have always played essential roles in the movements for voting rights, civil rights , labor rights, children's rights, and much more.
Hi!, i agree with you. women need to get the recognition they deserve and people should be reminded about what good things women have done and the crazy accomplishments they have made in the political and community topics as well and simply being there for people who need a voice.
HELLO!
I agree with opinion c. International women's day is a significant occasion that can have a meaningful impact on gender inequality. It's a day to recognize and appreciate the achievements of women to continue working on equality. By raising awareness, supporting each other, and advocating for change, we can make a big difference.
I disagree with opinion B and D because, international women's day has meaningful impact on gender inequality.
I also agree with opinion A because people will know that women also have rights.
THANK YOU!
Is a way to show what our mother did to us
Thank you for sharing your thoughts - can you elaborate on your point?
I agree with opinions D and B, but I disagree with opinion C. Opinion B supports that women should be celebrated every day, not just one single day. Women do so much for everyone. From being a house-wife to being a CEO of a big company, they should be treated the same as everyone else equal to them. Opinion D states that International Women's Day isn't going to help with how unfairly women get treated compared to men. Even well-known people still face discrimination. For example, Susan B. Anthony got arrested while trying to vote in the 1870s in New York.
I have my strong opinion towards point A. International day women's day is celebrated to remember how incredible women are . women's have always sacrifice themselves everytime
Even it is about there choices they have to always chose the path of struggle and sacrifices but they still never give up this quality of women's is the main reason for celebrating this marvellous day . women's should deserve a tribute for their achievement and I believe women's day should not be a particular date to respect women instead we should always give respect to women
I agree with option A. International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world of how incredible women are. Breaking the walls of gender inequality is not a one-day fight, nor should women be celebrated only on one day, but this day serves as a reminder to the world of the capabilities of women. International Women's Day should act as a catalyst for each of us, regardless of gender, to commit to concrete actions that will build a more gender-balanced world every day!
I agree with option A. I am not saying of course that women are better than men or the opposite but this day will make a difference.
In the old years women were only at the house doing chores and raising their children.
But now women have a meaning.
They can be oresidents, police officers and much more. They have an important role in the society.
International Women's Day is a significant day that reminds the world of the value and potential of women. It encourages women to express their views and be creative, while also highlighting their role in society. However, the idea that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day is criticized as it may lead to unfair treatment. The debate on whether International Women's Day will make a significant difference in gender inequality is also uncertain, as it depends on the future of the day and the opinions of both women and men. The conclusion is that Women's Day is a crucial day to remind the world of the importance of women's roles in society. However, the perspective of Option B may suggest that people only celebrate Women's Day and then neglect or disrespect women, but this may not always be the case. National holidays like Independence Day are examples of days set aside to appreciate and appreciate the contributions of women.
I definitely agree with statement A because women's day is a day which reminds us what women have done. But I disagree with opinion C.
I don't think that ONE DAY can make a ldifference for gender inequality.
I also believe that a lot of people don't know this day so if we want this day to make a difference we should celebrate all week with actions.
I agree with option A because International Women's Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.Its so important because we celebrate girls and women across the globe – and we remember that women's rights must never be taken for granted. Indeed, the path towards a gender-equal world is an uncertain one: gradual progress, made over generations, can be wiped out in one fell swoop.
I agree with option “A” which says “International women’s day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.”Because this day reminds us that not only men who have achievements but also woman.Without women there won’t be any reconstructions in the world because without women there won’t be reproduction.
Many women has much achievements like.
•Clara Zetkin the creator of women’s day.
•Mari Curie the first woman to win the Nobel price.
•Sarah Shendy was serving with the police department for 15 years, and was appointed in 2020 as Director of Ohio's Office of Law.
•Hana Gouda is Egypt's first table tennis player who Tops the world rankings for girls under 15 years old.
Hi all,
I absolutely agree with A, that International Women's Day is a day that celebrates the brilliance of accomplished women across the world and reminds young girls of the potential within them. However I believe that it is naïve to hold the assumption that all gender issues within the would can be changed due to single day, as implied by C, especially with the issues such as abortion rights (in countries such as the US) and access to education which seems to be an issue that spans across many countries across the globe. This also opens the attitude of 'you have a whole day about you, why are you still complaining?' which can undermine the arguments that International Women's Day seeks to highlight. The bottom line is that this celebratory day is brilliant for shining light on the women throughout history who have yet gone unrecognised, but this is not a stand-alone solution. As a society, we should strive to include those of all genders in the history books, in our governmental parties, and in our development as a human race. Because, of course, if we hold half of our population back, all of us will fail.
I agree with option A because international women's day is to remind us about women's achievements and all the things that women have been put through it is also a day to celebrate activists on a global level, raising awareness of their work and the challenges they face. It's also a great opportunity to network and connect with people committed to gender equality. That's why we celebrate Women's Day and not Men's Day. It's a moment in time when we acknowledge the contributions women have made to the progression of humanity.
Thank you
I agree with A, “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." This is because, women have been reached at the point in time where they get mostly even and equal standards to men. Women have started to get equal rights less than one hundred years ago; now women can vote thanks to Womans Suffrage and women can now work thanks to Eleanor Holmes Norton. We often forget why so many people dedicated their entire lives for women's rights, backs in the 60s women were expected to care for the children and cook for the husband after his day at work. It was against society's standards for a woman to work and men dominating everything it was really rare for a woman to work.
There are so many problems that women still face till this day, in many countries girls cannot get an education, in Afghanistan women cannot leave the house without a blood male relative or husband, woman in Afghanistan cannot get a divorce even after arranged marriage! Women are banned from participating in any sport, including football. From the age of 16 a girl can be married in Afghanistan with the permission of the father.
The gender pay gap is a huge problem in today's society; normally you wouldn't speak to your collages how much you earn as many people do not feel comfortable talking about their wages. On the worldwide average, women earn 77 cents for every dollar earned by men. If the national average income is £2000 then a women will get £460 less than the man on the average monthly salary; so, in a years' time a women will lose £5520 in a year's time just for being a woman. Sure, that the pay gap doesn't happen every everywhere, but awareness needs to be spread. The pink tax plays a marketing role for women to spend more than men, this is usually used in many companies and chains. In the UK (where I live) Pink Tax occurs in school uniforms. Girls' school uniforms are 12 percent more expensive than boys' uniforms. This goes for both primary and secondary school-age children that must face this problem. In the Uk we have to wear unforms to school (unfortunately) and actively knowing that uniform give a higher price to pay for unfirm is disgraceful. A women ages between 19 and 34 pay on average more than double what men pay on annual. Some products, cost more for women than men, including razors, deodorant, body wash, feminine products and even car insurance are often higher prices than men. The next time you walk into a shop and see razors that do the exact job but in different occurring packages for genders prices difference ranging for 80p to a whopping £5 is just unacceptable. Stop making women's life so hard!
Some people now are trying to say it risks of international women's day becoming little more than a corporate Valentine's Day, companies using the occasion to “pinkwash” their brands rather than promote women's equality. Like in June when Pride month comes around brands like Ikea, Asda, Pets at home, royal mail rainbow wash their costumers as they celebrate pride month like the fact and are not promoting LGBTQA+ community but instead trying to get more customers.
Please stop pink washing women.
Personally I agree with A, International women's day is a day when women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, cultural, economic or political. I think it is important to appreciate all the important things women have done and helped to the way we do things now, and women deserve to have a day dedicated to them to feel comfortable and important. I disagree with B, international women's day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day, I think this day serves more to raise awarness and make women feel acknowledged. I think that even though gender equality should be recognized all year round there is no harm in women having a day dedicated to them.
I agree with C.
Who knows, maybe after constantly celebrating international women's day will make an incredibly large impact on gender equality. Women have skills and brains just like men. They are not only unique but beautiful and talented. Celebrating International women's day can help change the souls of people in the society, especially a business owner. Why am I using this particular profession? Mainly because women suffer a lot when it comes to paying them. Men are paid more than women even if they occupy the same profession. So, I think that after celebrating this holiday for a longtime it will gravely improve gender inequality.
I think option A is the best among all because option A is trying to show us the importance of women in our lives it shows that women are not just another gender but they are our companions we see them everyday we live speak interact with them everyday of our lives women truly are something else they command respect care, they take care of Us they cook for us they do everything for us they spend all the time with us just raising us to see us become good people they are mothers care takers companions and friends these are one of many way to describe women and mothers women's day and mothers day are part of our ways of showing appreciation to them and to recognize their impact in our daily lives women's day and mothers are one of many of promoting gender equality because those days help show our appreciation to them
But i disagree with option D because international women day will make a big difference because it's a day to celebrate women on our lives so yes it would speed up gender equality because it one of those may ray to show our appreciation for women international women day is one of the most effective ways of spreading gender equality
I'd would like to respond to option C because its main reason is to promote equality and i think that international women day is doing a very good job
THANK YOU 🙂🙋🌍
I pick option A since women are amazing and incredible and indeed deserve to be celebrated more . Currently, I think that women go through a bunch of difficult consequences and situations especially in this current time since we can gain benefit from media but in addition to harm. Media ALWAYS contains information about many different topics or concepts about anything happening or occurring whether in the past or in the present time , I think these features of media can be diagnosed as harmful disadvantages of the internet, this can lead to gossiping, cyber bullying (online bullying) and many more. If people kept gossiping about for example female athletes this could lead to discomfort, discourage and depression. People should show some respect towards women rights, in conclusion women are humans and they definitely deserve all praise .
Thanks.
Hello!
I absolutely agree with your point about the impacts of female athletes being judged unfairly, and I partially believe that this is because of what many have been told about what is feminine, and many athletes fall out of this category (for example, being muscular). This can lead to them being deemed 'unattractive' which some may take as a point to disregard their accomplishments in their particular sport! There also can be issue of overly sexualising women in sport due to their clothing, which is rather designed to allow free movement, rather than accentuate their body shapes, but nevertheless this attitude can lead to the discomfort and discouragement you mentioned in your comment. I also agree with your overall message of showing women respect simply as fellow people and promoting equal rights!
I disagree with B, because there's no possible way to constantly throw parties for women, in order to share your appreciation for them. Personally, I believe that women should be appreciated all throughout the whole year. The 8th of March is just a day to strengthen its meaning. If it would have been women's day, every day, then what about men? By equality, I understand that both men and women have the same amount of rights, payment and so on. However, we can't bring equality by making women seem better than men. That's not the porpoise.
In my opinion, this celebration is the perfect time to give women presents. You obviously can't do this every day, because it would be too expensive for the majority of people. It is interesting to see how others view women's day, as the only day in the calendar when they can treat them nicely. Just because you have got a special day to do that, doesn't mean that you can't do it on any other day too.
How else do you think that people can celebrate women?
I agree because women deserve to be recognised all year round and just because women get treated well on International Women's Day, doesn't mean that is the only day they should get treated well.
International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." Im totally convinced with this line International Women's Day is a very good reminder of how incredible womans are and reminds the achievements and contributions of women towards her nation,her family and her life. It's a joyous day to celebrate for the equality of women making impact on society. This day can help womens to get inspired for going furtger progress. However,womens should be reminded each day how incredible they are for the further progress. It's a wonderful opportunity to appreciate the women who have made a difference.
I strongly disagree with opinion B, "International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” Opinion B can be viewed two different ways, positively and negatively. The way it is described, is focusing on only the negative, emphasizing that out of 365 days a year, women are only acknowledged 1 day. Personally, I think Women's day is a special date that recognizes all of the achievements women were able to fulfill throughout history. Considering the fact that much of the business world ,along with other areas, are mainly man-dominated, women being included and able to participate in it is a big accomplishments and therefore should be celebrated world-wide.
I agree with a. a states that Independent Women's day is great because it reminds the world how incredible women are. I agree with this because Independent Women's Day shows people who might not appreciate women that they should be appreciated because they have done a lot to contribute to the world. I disagree with D. I disagree with it because these states that Independence women's day does not make much of a difference for gender equality. this is not true women have been able to gain more respect and Independence such as people like Kamala Harris. she is the first woman vice president showing just because she's a woman doesn't mean she can't gain important roles in the government. I'm going to respond to B. I'm responding to this because I believe that Independent Women's Day should be celebrated all the time not just on one day. That's because people take women for granted and only showing them that they're important on one day doesn't always help.
Hello, I don't believe that international women's day is a bad thing, but i think there shouldn't be a specific day were women are celebrated because i believe it's something that should be known and praised constantly and not just on a singular day and so i think that everyone should know the good things women have done. But, i feel that even though some people might see the day as only One day to celebrate women i think instead the day should be to remind everyone of the great accomplishments women have made.
i agree with point A
I truly think that women should definitely have a day where its all about them. It reminds us how much they do and put up with. They do so much and some people don't even realize how many things women do or did. Here's an example without women we would not be typing right now because a woman invented wifi and another woman invented windshield wipers. We need women in our lives we wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for our mothers.
I disagree with point D because International women's day could help to make a big change or difference for gender equality.you have to believe in it give it a try it shouldn't be that hard to even try to make inequality happen no matter what gender is.
Also point B is actually right women should be celebrated or recognize every day and not just one day. But we need equality men has a international men's day as well as women. Men are just as important as women to.
So this answer point C it definitely helps gender inequality even if you go as nonbinary. Basically what i'm trying to say is women should have a international holiday and men as well they should be celebrated equally and yes, it does help inequality.
Hi amazing friends
It will be my honour to state how I feel about these options.
1. I strongly concur with point A which states that “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” I agree because women are not daily appreciated so if a whole day is dedicated to celebrate them, they will feel very special and it will provide flashbacks of the amazing things they do and how wonderful they really are.
2. I strongly disagree with point D which states that “International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” I disagree because it will make a difference to gender inequality because women will feel that finally there is a day that people do not underestimate them but rather appreciate them. Some professions even organize a whole event for them telling them how special they are and how they can do most things that are better than the men.
3. I will love to give a response to point B and C.
a) Point B states that “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” Well, just one day isn’t enough because it can even be a week. However, women really appreciate the events that people celebrate them for what they do. The fact that there is nothing like International Men’s Day and only women’s day, the women will feel appreciated and I also think that it is not about what the world with think but the main aim is on the women so it depends on how they will feel.
b) Point C states that “International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality.” People might think that it is just a day to wish people Women’s Day and there is no main impact. However, it is a big difference to gender inequality for the ladies because there might not be any day that people will not underestimate them and they will think they are not important but they will finally realise that they are important in a special way because people have set a special day for them to show their gratitude and their appreciation to good decisions they make.
YOU KNOW THE DEAL, I AWAIT FOR YOUR REPLIES!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like this comment keep up the good work👍
Thank you so much imaginative_shark for your words of encouragement. I really appreciate this😊😃
Hello topical talker,
I totally agree with option A because, lots of women have done great things that have thought of doing or when the women challenged themselves so they can do what men were doing and change history just like the way in the past women were not allowed to go to school but a woman, a girl decided to make this difference and now girls, ladies now go to school to learn. At least let there be a day dedicated to celebrating a woman just like the way we celebrate our mothers', fathers' and lots of others.
I choose the option (B) because I think that the task that women perform are not easy. I think women should be celebrated every day but I disagree with this topic because women's day is a day to remember I don't think women only deserve to be celebrated only once every year.Women play a vital role in our lives everyday. International Women's is a day to celebrate all the accomplishments of all women world-wide. I support option (B) becuasen women do many outstanding things just like the saying what a man can do a woman can do better.
In my opinion i agree with A because it tries to tell how women are great and why we should need to respect all of them .
But I disagree with C because in remote and village areas they will think that it means to tell women are greater men so again they will start the fight between men and women so in my opinion I disagree with C .
We agree with Option C as it shows that society can appreciate women more than ever before and appreciate their hard work and contributions. Even though we have improved greatly, it is important to continue moving forward rather than losing momentum.
Lots of students in our class felt that the sentiments of International Women's Day should be celebrated and promoted every day not just one day of the year and that some companies pay a 'lip service' to the day to make themselves look good. On the other hand, many felt that the day was a good start but that more needs to be done to promote gender equality.
I will go with B because if it's celebrated some of the men in the world will ask themselves why are they not celebrating international men's day which will make them feel bad.
Hi astounding_turbine, that is a good point that has made me think
Thank you for that wonderful comment, I will also like to add that as international women’s are celebrated, it will serve as a means of creating awareness and also a way of reforming men’s heart as they get to see many achievements that had been achieved by women’s and also how they have greatly impacted in the economic, social and political state of our countries
I would like to say that international women's day is celebrated because it reminds us how women are important to the society, women are the ones that gave birth to men. It is because we are the ones that make up the society.
I agree with A because women deserve one day to be recognised the work they do in society and this day recognies how they work hard and can do the same things as men. It also reminds everyone that women are key and are equal to men.
I disagree with C because only a day celebrating women won't change many things. It is better to educate people in equality every day of the year. Also this doesn't mean International Women's Day won't help to fight inequality, but if we think that with only this we will make great changes, then we will never reach equality; we need to work hard more than one day to end inequality. Our goverments need to make laws that prevent inequality but not doing laws that just give women privileges because of being a women, because that would mean they are worse than men and need more that the goverment constantly protect them. In conclusion, the best thing is always equality in everything.
Hi!
I agree with statements A and B. I think celebrating International Women's Day it's a good way to remember that women should be respected, but also to remind people how much women have suffered all over history. Some people think the International Day of Women was created to give visibility and make women more important than man, but in my opinion that's not true, if there's an INTERNATIONAL day for Women it means that is needed, and not just in one single country, in all of them, in all over the world. Imagine how bad the situation of women is, that a Women's International Day has been necessary to make.
On the other hand, I also agree with statement B because women aren't really remembered during all the year in most of the countries, they're just remembered on their International Day, which I think is really the reason that explains and gives answer to why there's an International Day of Women needed. People should think about the tough situation women suffer not only one day, but throughout all the year.
I agree with point A because International women's day is great as it celebrates why women are good and how they diserve their recognition . It is a time where children at schools learn about women and their past about being treated disrespectly and how the government were able to allow women to do all these things that they do presently.
I agree with A and C, I believe that International Women's day is a very good thing, it encourages gender equality between everyone. However, I think it should be spoken about more, for instance, I had no idea that International Women's was a thing until I read it. If more people knew about it, it would encourage even more gender equality and make women feel wholly appreciated. Some people think that we are already at complete gender equality, but we have only scratched the surface, even though we are making average progress. It really should be acknowledged as a day were girls are believe in themsevles and girls realise their huge amount of potential.
It is my opinion that International Women's Day will remind all women in the world of how incredible they are. It is a very good thing that will make a big difference on gender equality. However, I don't feel like it is celebrated as much as it should be and I don't think many people realise the importance of this day. It should be recognised as a day where all women should be included and the world realises their potential. However, at full power, I think it would encourage any girl or woman to be more confident in themselves and celebrate who they are.
What better than a day to represent women all around the world? Actually I feel so proud of my mum as a mum of 3 children, hard working and keeping us safe.
But women are not respected the same in all the countries. So for me International Women's Day is a good think and a reminder of what they deserve.
It is a day that raise awareness to women themes such as discrimination, unequal access to health and education. It cam also inspire action and highlights the work that is still to be done.
i think International Women’s Day is very important and necessary because we need to remind the world that women deserve to be recognized and respected for their work, some people may think that celebrating the International Women's Day just one day is something stupid because it should be celebrated every day and maybe they are ot completely wrong, but sadly we often need to remind the world that women are important and should be listened to.
I disagree with option D because I do think that this day will make a difference for gender inequality as it is a day in which women reivindicate their rights, and doing this makes them being heard.
I think the option C would be a great choice for me. Now, The world has set a new rule called gender equality and Everyone need to follow it otherwise the world will consider you as a blot. I believe that Men are also deserving to celebrate this kind of festival for their hard work, patience, sacrifices, struggle, etc to their family. In recent years, Woman has got so much power that they can use it for any kind of small reasons. If the woman need to celebrate this kind of festival so why men can't.
I agree both with option A and option D, because while international womens day is an opportunity to celebrate women in history and now who have done amazing things, and it is absolutely important to celebrate as women are often overlooked in history, one day a year isnt going to make a massive difference in the world of gender inequality, or change the mindset of a misogynist. In some cases, international womens day is wrongly labelled as a waste and unnecessary by misogynist, so it both advances and hinders equality for women in various ways.
I agree with option A because I feel everyone should appreciate women and who they are. I feel women and men are equal and there should be no other heirachy between them.
I agree with D. International womens day is an important day to highlight the development of womens rights and the fight for the womens community to be more equal ( or fully equal) to men. Women have always been big for the eshablishments of civil rights, voting rights and promoting gender equality.
However, unfortunately quite the quantity of men are extremely sexist! Which is is obviously very disturbing and really shocking to the rest of the community. Various men make sexist comments about womens education, voting and sports. I believe, most comments on Internation Womens Day are negative because the majority of the postitive ones are overthrown by the sexist men contiously spreading hate everywhere online.
This post is not to stereotype men or women in anyway, just to exclaim my opinion online!
I agree with c to a certain extent as i agree that it will raise awareness to areas of the globe that are less aware but unfortunatly in some places even the uk in 2023 the pay gap between men and women was 7.8%. To be honest in such as socially aware country as the uk its surprisng that are still such differences between men and women.Even though 7% does not seem like a lot it is still unfair that there is any difference at all. Even worse is that people do not or refuse to act upon such facts they ackownledge them but don't do anything about it. So yes i agree that international womens day would make a difference but a big difference. I'm not so sure about.
It's good because although its only for one day it's showing that all genders are important. We get to reflect and take the time to think about women's rights throughout history. During WW2, women had to take up jobs that men normally did which proved to everyone that they were capable of doing 'men's' jobs.
The opinion that I would definitely agree with is option A because now currently we are all witnessing gender inequality against women and as option A siad “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.”if people are aware to this it might promote equality between men and women to me I think that option A would be the best way to promote equality between men and women.
I genuinely agree in the option "B", because Woman do not deserve to be celebrated for only one day. They are the power of the society, they always support their family and incourages them to do something new. I want to give a example of my mother, she is a banker and a hardworking woman. Sometime I think, I want to be just like her "a independent woman not depending on a single penny of others and always a wonderful and great woman. All of the women should be respected and blessed, as they have given you the best life that you never imagined of. Thankyou...😊
i agree with option A. Most students voted for this option, as they felt women were not treated right for centuries, and this needs to be addressed. It is an opportunity to recognise women's efforts in today's society
I'm going to go with opinion A, because although some people might say women are not just to be celebrated on only one day but to me its just like a birthday that only happens once a year making it special and unique. Having a whole day dedicated to celebrating women is such an honor to every woman worldwide although everyone deserves to be appreciated for that they do and the effort they put in to many things, I feel it is nice that every year a day has been set aside for us to appreciate and thank women for everything they do but do not get me wrong I am not trying to say that only women should be celebrated because a special day should also be set aside for men to be celebrated to because the also do a lot and they deserve to be celebrated and honored too.
I agree with point A because it highlights the importance of celebrating women and their achievements. I believe that it is necessary to respect and appreciate women as they can achieve anything they set their minds to. However, I disagree with point D, which suggests that there is less gender inequality today. The writer believes that more gender inequality has been brought to light over the years, and people are now more supportive of women. This also relates to point B, which raises the question of why people are still fighting for gender equality and discussing issues that need to be addressed all around the world.
I agree with A because people constantly forget about these amazing women that have made big contributions to the earth and the reason that there are not as many famous women as men are because women have had restrictions held over them and some are afraid to cross it but there are some that aren't and that is what we need to remember. These women have tried really hard to become successful and we need to praise them for that.
Responding to opinion B I would partly agree and partly disagree. I like the reasoning behind the opinion, that women deserve to be celebrated every day but I don't think that makes the International Women's Day any less important. If anything I would argue that this reason actually supports the International Women's Day. There's so much that women do in their workplaces, for their families and everyone around them on a day to day basis that go unnoticed which is why I think International Women's Day is a nice reminder to celebrate and thank the women in our lives, to let them know we appreciate them and everything they're doing in everyday life. That is why I think International Women's Day is important and a great way to draw attention to all of the things that women do so that our societies can thrive.
Hello !! As for me, I disagree with statement B. By celebrating this day we mark it as a very important day. And we have seen that important days throughout history are celebrated to act as a reminder.
Women's Day is a way to raise awareness and in away to be advertised in media.
However we should honor women every day and recognize their contributions.
This day should act a s a reminder of the ongoing work that needs to be doe in order gender equality to be achieved worldwide.
I strongly disagree with Point D because i feel as if International women's day makes a big difference in gender inequality . It shows that women can do whatever they put their mind to and that not everything is a mans job . It shows that we should not be treated differently because of our gender because we can do just as much as a man can do also. So i think it does make a difference .
I agree with A because it could boost women's confidence and make them feel appreciated. If women start thinking positively about their gender, more women would want to do 'Men Sports'. If anyone puts them down, International Women's day will remind them how strong and confident they can be in any type of job they want to experience being in. I also agree with C because if people from all over the world start noticing the problem with inequality, they could start focusing on it more and doing other things to help other women feel more recognised and heard.
In my considered opinion, I agree with option A and B both and disagree with option D.
I agree with option A as International Women’s Day highlights the inspiring and incredible stories about the life of women and of the struggles they have to face in society. So, in my opinion, it helps in showcasing the social, economic , political and many other achievements of women in all fields which helps raise their status in society. More people become aware about women’s abilities and other women also get inspired to pursue their dreams and goals as well. I agree with option B as well because International Women’s day will hold significance, only when people understand the fact that women do not have to be appreciated and acknowledged only on one day but all days. If they are only payed attention on this specific day and people don’t pay heed to them otherwise, then there is no such significance of celebrating International Women’s Day.
I disagree with option D as I believe that this day helps in alleviating women’s position in society. It eradicates gender partiality and fosters inclusivity . It helps in empowering women worldwide. So, saying that it makes no difference would not be correct in my opinion. However, it is important to understand the fact that this day will only be purposeful when it enlightens the masses about a woman’s abilities and that women are not inferior and are second to none!
Thank you
I strongly agree with Point A because international women's day is to remind people how great women are to society and to the world. International women's day is to remind people that women can do anything , they can also do more than some men. They do whatever they would like and be whatever they would like. That we shouldn't be excluded because of our gender .
I agree with opinion "A".
A international Women's Day is great because it's reminds the world how incredible the women are.The role of women in the construction of human civilization of the world is immense. The role of women the development of the world is no less than that of men in any way.Women are constantly moving forward though their skills and creativity.
I disagree with opinion " B".
International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day. Women continue to work for economic and political progress in the world. The role of women in building this wonderful world today is incredible. They continue to fight for the rights. That is why every man should give proper respect and dignity to women.
I respond with opinion "C".
International Women's Day will make a big difference for gender inequality. In the world, both men and women
are recognised as human beings. I think the world should believe the equal rights for men and women. the roles of a men and women equal in the history of the world. But certainly women's right are being undermined in many cases. International Women's Day make people aware about women's right. As a result, gender inequality will be reduced.
Thank you.
I strongly feel that option A is quite fascinating or exquisite and I agree with it.I disagree with option B. The reason why I believe that A is the best option to select, is that sometimes the planet and everyone who lives on it might forget what women have done in human history. Why do I disagree with option B you may ask? Well I disagree with it because I think that women should be celebrated for more than one day but people won't think that.
I disagree with C because many people don't even know when International Women's Day is, aka me, and it doesn't make that much of a difference for me and a lot of other people that wouldn't even know its existence. I just now learned of it with Topical Talks. It only really makes a difference for the people that celebrate it, which is definitely lower than the amount of people that don't celebrate it. For the people that do celebrate it, it only lasts one day so it definitely can't make a big difference to gender inequality.
Why do you think we have days dedicated to certain causes?
I completely agree with opinion A because woman throughout the history has been less recognized for unfair reasons compared to men. Both genders are important and society should be aware of this and the nowadays situation. From my point of view, having a day dedicated for the International Women Day is the minimum we can do to thank them for all their work.
I disagree with opinion D. The objective of having an International day for women is for reaching the gender equality and is making its progress. For example, people before did not knew a lot about women good actions and their important in society but nowadays we cannot think of a world which has not been improved by several women.
I will respond to opinion B. I can understand the point of view of a person who thinks like this because actually it makes sense, women should be recognized every day, not one in special. The thing is that making an International day for women also is useful for people to think for themselves and say that women should be celebrated all days of the year. What I mean is that even not all days in calendar is for celebrating women International day we should remember their achievements all days of the year.
In my opinion I chose A and C because we are celebrating how amazing women can be and the achievments they have made. Moreover, I also chose C because this can change the inequality of gender as several people still treat many different gendered people unequally and that is unfair. Everone should be treated equally. While on the other hand, I disagreed with B and D because at one time women were treated unfairly and like slaves however now everything has changed and the day this changed we celebrate it for women. Also, men were not treated unfairly then, as they got to vote for things and women didn't. Furthermore, I chose D because for example if there were a group of people who didn't treat everyone equally (especially women) then maybe they will realise that actually everyone should be treated equally. And this could make a difference.
I agree with point A as I believe that the women must be celebrated as they do a fabulous work in
a lot of things. And I think that they deserve all the respect from us because women act as the half of the
society.
I disagree with point D because the International Women’s Day shows their roles in the society and in various areas of life as women can work in engineering like men they can also work in health caring like men. As you see there is no big difference
between women and men as they can work in the same fields .
for example:
1- In education
2- In teaching
3- In healthcare
4- In engineering
I want to respond to point B. I don't think that the international women day meant that women deserves only one day for celebrating.Instead, it serves as a global platform to show the gender inequality, celebrate women achievement, and for women's rights throughout the year.
FINALLY, women have all the respect as they do a lot of things that men can't do.
And as I said earlier that women act as the half of the society and we need to encourage and support them.
Moreover, this is only a small thing that we can do for women and they deserve much more than that.
I think option c “International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality is a opinion I agree with. International women's day helps recognize how great and accomplished all women are in what they do.For example women in politics,women in sports, even moms all over the world will be recognized for the great role they play to society and how great they are in everything they do! This will also be able to show men that women are equal to whether they want to believe it or not. With all said everyone should realize how great women are and how greatful we should be towards them.
I think option b “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day" makes me feel a balance of emotions.Yes we should recognize women more and understand their value.This is why there is a international's women day. But I do agree with the part that talks about how it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.Instead of just one day in the month why not celebrate women for the whole month or what even the whole year/rest of life.We shouldn't just want to appreciate women on this day but we should want to appreciate women everyday whether its their good day or bad day. We should want to always appreciate women and everything they do for us because they are important part of us and the world!
I agree with opinion letter B because I think that we must celebrate the women every day not only on day in the year because the woman is the mother, wife, sister and daughter. Before any success for any man, there must be a woman. If there are no women, we can't live.
We must respect women.🌹
I totally agree with opinion A. Because international day is such a great day to remember all the great work done by women and the way of maintaing gender equality. Women has done many incredible work on the field of science, politics, and many more. Women has done incredible work as a everyday heroes to global icon and I think every work needs recognition. And international women's day helps to recognise those works. It helps us to raise awareness about the challenges faced by women worldwide in current society such as gender inequality, discrimination, and violence either domestic violence or other. It helps women to pursue their dream and reach their full potential.
I agree with A because International Women's Day is not only to celebrate and have fun; but also to give a reminder that women are very great to the world. Women are incredible because of their help to the society. Women can only give birth to babies; men can't! Without women the world would basically be ending because there would be no new babies and when everyone dies there will be no one left. This day would also help bring gender equality because in the past women were just used for the household daily works but nowadays women can also work jobs to help the family's economic conditions.
I absolutely disagree with option D because it will anyhow bring a difference in gender inequality. Men will no longer treat women with disrespect. And Again Thank You To The Tropical Talk Team For Giving Us This Opportunity To Show Our Thoughts On These Ideas.
I agree with victorious_raccoon at the option A. but I have to disagree with you at your thoughts about the option D. Women are also getting jobs in some countries but they aren't in many countries. I know that in some areas men will no longer treat women badly or will abuse them mentally or physically. while, in some rural and uneducated areas it won't have any effect on the gender inequality. Men will still think that they can dominate women and they will still think that women don't deserve to get a job and earn money on their own. If you have some objections feel free to give a reply. Thank you
“International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.'' - It is always important to celebrate, having this day to remind us how incredible women are is fantastic. There is more equality in the world nowadays, however it is still not where it should be.
Women are seen to be more equal in various jobs, for example there are more and more women working as Sports commentators on the TV which is fantastic. This encourages and motivates young girls to feel important and inspired them to work toward their dreams.
I agree with option C because it demonstrates how important women are in modern day society. For example, women worked in lots of really important roles and jobs: teachers, nurses, political activism and staying at home and completing most of the domestic chores and task. Another reason that I agree with the statement is that International Women's day highlights the struggles that women have gone through in the past.
We agree with B. We feel international women's day should not be only one day. Women should feel celebrated, supported and respected every single day of the year. This should also be equal for men. Having an international men and women's is also excluding those who identify as non-binary.
We disagree with option C. One day will not be able to change the opinions of people who have deep routed misogynistic views as this is an issue that needs to be tackled on a deeper level. Only when people can see women as equal can they be celebrated as equals!
International women's day is a day to remember things that women have done and tells us and reminds us how great and amazing the women gender is and things they have done for us. Also nearly everything is about men and hardly any women. Before the 1900's women weren't allowed to vote for anything and during 1916-1917 women were finally allowed to vote. So International women's day is all about to celebrate women and gender equality.
I strongly agree with option A as there are many things that men cannot do and women can , for example :
-giving birth, without women , there would be no babies and human starts of as a baby then grows . Without
women , the would be no humans.
- before women were aloud to go to school , they had to stay home to clean and do jobs for women then, without women , men would be at school and there would be no women working at home.
These are two important examples that shows that Earth without women , there would be no humans , not even men. International Women Day would be a day to show everyone that women are so important. According to research , the term 'women work' indicates that jobs only women could do was :
- breastfeeding
- childbirth
-pregnancy
I agree with A as a good way to show that women matter just as much as men is a full day dedicated to women. We can also celebrate it to remember all the great things that women have created and done for the world and how it helps. I disagree with D as International Women's day could really help encourage young girls, women and a lot of other people in different countries to fight for equality between men and women.
I agree with A because women in the old days were treated badly compared to men.I think there should be an International Women's Day because it shows how equal women are to men.Women are just as important as men and men don't have the right to say nasty things to women.Men were always the ones that did important stuff like fighting in wars,going to school and more,women would just sit at home with their children,it's really unfair.Some men have to realise how important women are to the world because they can't have a child without them.Sadly some countries don't recognise how important women are and have them sit at their homes looking after their children and unfair and disgusting to know about.the day shows how important women are and honestly we do need more of them in the world.
Celebrating women's day is so important to me because we women need to be appreciated as we do a lot for the community. People take us for granted which is not for women's day was for us to be appreciate, loved and cared not violated because we go through a lot of things and experiences that's why I think women's day should be celebrated and valued
Thank you
I think that international woman's day is a good thing because the women can be treated differently compered to men. Women can do multiple things on international woman's day and it is a time where they can do somethings that men can't do on that day.
I believe that international women's day is a great thing and should be celebrated as almost everything on the media is based around men for example you might be interested in sports and want to find out more but every time that you click on their web page the first article or picture that you would see or read would most likely be about men so that is why we need a day to focus on all the good things that women do for a change .
Hi
i agree with option A that “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.
International Women's Day is a importance and positive global observance that celebrates the contributions of women throughout history. It serves as a reminder of the ongoing fight for gender equality and women's rights. The day provides a platform to raise awareness about issues like gender violence, discrimination, and unequal opportunities. It input a sense among women and encourages collective action for positive change. However, some critics argue that dedicating a single day to women's issues may not be enough to address systemic issues and that the focus should be on continuous efforts for equality throughout year. Despite differing opinions, the day has played a role in bringing attention to important issues and promoting dialogue on gender equality on a global scale. Overall, International Women's Day serves as a role for positive change, but ongoing efforts are crucial for sustained progress.
My opinion lays on option "A". Because throughout history women were hidden behind the curtains . Even now we may not know about incredible findings that were made by women in the past. And the 8th of march reminds us of how we closed and ignored incredible women and girls . I think we need to celebrate the international day of women because it is a reminder that women are as incredible as men are .
I can agree or disagree with both option A and D. I think it just depends on the country or the area.
Option D is good because, in rural areas the people still follow the blind believes or superstition and the men and women aren't treated equally. Most of the people in rural areas don't even know the International women's day and they still believe that the women are better at home and they don't deserve to get a work and earn money on their own.
But, on the other side option A can also be the best option. Because, on some developed and educated countries people believe that men and women are equal and should be treated equally. International Women's day is a day to remember the things that are done by women for humanity's sake and we celebrate it by not only remembering those women that have done good or sacrificed themselves for the country or the world. We can also remember our Mom or sister or anyone that you love and have done great things for you. For example: Everyone's mom is their first teacher, first friend and they are their everything. Our mom sacrifice herself for their children's future. At last I just want to say that, this festival should be known worldwide if it is known by everyone then the gender inequality will be decreased and at some point it could also be stopped.
Thank you
I respectfully disagree with opinion B, as International Women’s Day is not intended to coincide with a single day of appreciation. Instead designating a specific day that is a collective effort to shine a light on gender-related challenges, advocate for equality, and promote consistent inclusion marks a year-long commitment to address gender issues, promote sustainable thinking and inspire action for positive change
In response to Idea C, I firmly believe that International Women’s Day has the potential to make a significant difference in the pursuit of gender equality. By serving as a focal point for discussion, awareness campaigns and activism, it can inspire visible and lasting change. Progress on this day has the potential to go beyond its immediate impact, creating a social shift towards greater gender equality. For example, greater visibility of women’s achievement can inspire policy change, workplace change, and cultural change that contributes to a world of equality.
Hii ,
"I agree with option A ('International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.') because it is a day for women and it represents the value of freedom for women.
I disagree with option D ('International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.') I think Women's Day will make a significant difference for gender equality because people often perceive that men have all the freedom and can do whatever they want, but this is wrong. Women have the same and equal opportunities as men.
I respond to option B ('International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.'), from my point of view, Women's Day is a day where we should not only celebrate women but also encourage them, respect them, obey them, and address the discrimination they face. It's a day that amplifies voices, sparks conversations, and encourages collective efforts towards gender equality throughout the year. Women deserve to be celebrated every day because "Women are the backbone of society, the architects of tomorrow, and the drivers of progress."
Thank you .
Great comment open_speech. Did you know there is an International Men's Day too, on the 19th November. What do you think about that?
Hii Ursula,
"I know that there is also an International Men's Day. As I mentioned in the comment, men and women should have equal freedom and rights, so men also have a particular day to celebrate. In many places, there is discrimination against men in jobs and occupations. Therefore, International Men's Day is celebrated to ensure that every citizen, whether male, female, girl, or boy, has equal rights. Additionally, it serves as a platform to raise awareness about men's health issues, mental health challenges, and gender stereotypes that affect men."
Thank you .
I agree with B the most because other than International Women's Day and Mother's Day, men are mostly celebrated instead of women. I also agree with A as it reflects what many inspiring women has impacted the world. For example, the lionesses impacted the world with women's football. The most popular news about them is that they've won the Euro 2020.
I agree with option A because celebrating Women´s day is important in order to remind the people that women are as necessary as men in this world and gender inequality still exists. But I think Women´s day is not only celebrated in order to congratulate women, it´s a day in order to stop and think why every day a women is killed just for being a women or why women need to be afraid of walking alone on the street at night. I think that some people just ignore the fact because this problem doesn’t affect them, but it does affect those children that lose their mum or those families who has lost their daughter. Because gender violence kills many women every year, in fact, in my country 1237 women were killed since 2003, so I think celebrating women’s day is a day in order to think what can we change in order to stop this problem and to give support to all those women who are suffering or had suffered domestic violence in their lifes, and give confidence to them to raise their voice, because many women are afraid of report their situation.
That is a valid point you made about the need to focus on change to protect women in the future. Please can you provide a source for your information about gender based violence?
I agree with statement 1 , international Women’s Day is an important day that helps people remember the amazing things that women can achieve. It shows how strong and intelligent women are. Women’s Day is a time to celebrate all the accomplishments and contributions that women make to society. By acknowledging this day, we honour the value and significance of women in our world
Coming from a female myself, I believe that "Womens day" should be a day because women make the population higher and they put in way more effort than anyone on this earth. They also have so many achievements and how much progress they have made . For Example, Rosa Parks helped the race equality when she didn't give her seat up to a white man, She made a huge accomplishment that made the world better and way more equal. Women have fought for their freedom, equality, and fairness. They have worked hard and put so much effort into making the world a better place and they deserved to be honored and appreciated for everything they do. Thats why I believe that women should be appreciated, celebrated, and honored for every second of work and effort to make a difference in the world, and women appreciation day would really make women feel loved and appreciated way more . That's why I think people should support Women's Appreciation Day .
I agree and disagree with statement 2 because international Women's Day is an important day that celebrates the achievements and contributions of women worldwide. While it's true that women's accomplishments should be recognized every day, having a designated day allows us to highlight and raise awareness of the ongoing struggles that women face. By celebrating International Women's Day, we can promote gender equality and empower women to strive for their rights and opportunities all year round. This day serves as a reminder of the progress that has been made and the work that still needs to be done to achieve gender equity.
I think I will pick A, because if we celebrate women for one day it can change everything.
Women can do a lot of things to help the world\their country. For example:
1. Massive protest
A lot of citizens have won trying to get their freedom have won their rights. But in our world today there are few women who are trying to lead and carry along with them all of the 4,043,243,501 women in the world and be heroes to improve their communities and their children’s children will not be going through the same issue.
2. Taking positions
Most men are taking big positions while most women are not doing anything about it they are just complaining (that is our challenge in the world we do not act about it we just complain) if this continues people will think that a country does not give women positions and they do not support women rights. (Even if men leave the seat for a woman, women might still not show interest for the job.)
3. By voting
Most of the women that try and successfully win normally lose when it comes to the last stage. This is because most women do not vote for each other to make their gender win. And when women win, most women do not support them, maybe because she is not popular or did not do well in her political background. She might also not want to give women more rights when in position of authority.
I choose option A, I believe that women are great people. They are the other reason why the earth holds 8 billion people. They are the reason why we exist. People wouldn't be a thing without women.
I do not agree with option D. Women's day will make a change in gender equality because it will show how important women are. According to Medium.com, we will notice something more and see the importance of it if we celebrate.
I stand with opinion A. International women's day appreciates and respects women, having fought for their roles in today's modern world, examples being the Women's Suffrage. since men are mostly in the media instead of women, International Women's Day honors the events that women have gone through, and during that day people post, recognize and congratulate the change in politics, social, and many more that women have done.
I concur with opinion A as International Women's day is a great manner to celebrate women's achievements and all the contributions they had in our world since ancient times.
Nevertheless, I strongly disagree with opinion D as this event can make an enormous difference to the discrimination between the two genders. It can make people aware that what a man can do, a woman is also capable to achieve it too as everyone in this planet is equal and should nit be judged by their gender.
I think A, international day is good because it, gives most women or girl child an impression that they can do better in whatever they do it also enlitens other people to encourage gender equality in the a
Society .for example in my country Nigeria, women have not been active politically. in my own opinion I think that the reason women have not yet runed for the presidential candidate in my country is because they think women can not handle things like dealing with that specific status,and that that sit is too high for their gender .
do you think a woman should run for president in Nigeria, smart_effort?
Hello,
Well, I honestly feel that since Nigeria has had a male president since it gained her independence and the country keeps getting worse, why don't we try a female president so that we can see whether or not it has a positive or a negative impact on the country.
Thank You!!!
Yes o say this because so many in all my life I haven't heard of any female that have runed for a presidential candidate ,and moving forward I hope that when I grow up and achieve my dream,and I would make decisions that would matter in my country Nigeria.
international women's day is a great day to celebrate all that women have done and it will help with gender inequality it is a one day per year when we all think back to the great things women have done. Like with the lionesses they won the euros and made sure that women were inspired to play and know that not only just men can play. So i belive that international women's day is very important and great.
International womens day is a big deal for people as it's to celebrate womans freedom. This celebrates women being able to vote and have more opportunities like men do. Also, this is a big part of history, as it shows the stop discrimination of women. This meant more women were able to do many things
I agree because it is amazing that women are able to be supported and celebrated for all the amazing things that have happened in womens history as such as getting a political voice.
I agree that woman day is a good thing and should continue to celebrate the hard life of a woman in the olden days since there were many things woman had to get through such as getting there vote and that is a thing worth celebrating.
Great points allowing_guineapig. Do you think there should be an International Men's Day? Why/why not?
I feel that International Men’s Day is useful, and deserves to be put to good use for some reasons which include:
1.Men may be better placed to develop their whole potential as a result of this new approach.
2. It can be beneficial for societal perceptions of human rights.
3. International Men’s Day can help human rights more widely flourish.
Can you explain how this would help men develop their potential?
International Men's was made to celebrate all the extraordinary things great men have done throughout history. This day not only celebrate men, but it also promotes gender equality.
Celebrating anything in general helps it get better. Celebrating men can boost their confidence and also motivate them. Showing that we appreciate men will make them know that their efforts in the society are not negligible. This will motivate them to work harder and do better. I do not know about you but honestly, praises make me want to work even harder, to earn them more. Men will develop their potential more when they are aware that all their other achievements are not forgotten.
The same also goes for women and when both men and women boost their potential, the society becomes a much better and productive place. This is a reason to celebrate both men and women.
I think it is good to have a international women's day because of what they have done for us and like we are hardworking and strong so ladies don't give up.
As a boy i don't really find it fair because women gets a day and men don't. Like what happened to gender equality.But if there was a man day then it will be fair. But i feel like women deserve it because they didnt have equality in the past but i feel like men should get a day to.
Good news - there is an International Men's Day!
how come there's an international women's day but there isn't a international man day ? as women are still asking for gender equality for them even though they have a full week about them and a whole day about them and men dont even have a day about them let alone a week.
so
Good news - there is an International Men's Day!
It's a good thing because it's when women are able to show that they can do what ever they want even if men can do it they can show that women can do it as well. It's a good thing we have a day for women because it can show us that even if men may say that we can't do something us women can show that nothing would stop us from doing something we want to.
Hello everyone!
I agree with A and C. I agree with A because it can remind what woman do for society and roles they have played to help people grow , support and many other actions, but I also agree with C as it is just a day to celebrate the other gender and some people may ask, well why isn't there a mans day? I would believe the answer to this is because for a lot of the time humans have been alive it seems that men have always tried to be the dominant gender for example men can do that better men can do this better and sometimes men saying that woman should "stay in house and" which is unacceptable as men and woman should be equal and can do anything each other can do, but if we did get International Women’s Day people would be mad and their could be controversy as people could say this could go against woman or trying to make men the better gender and some men will either be happy or feel that this does not feel like everyone is equal even if men never had a day of their own. So I do think International Women’s Day isn't bad and is good that we can make sure woman are as respected as men and we can only hope one day we will no longer discriminate against each other and that we are all equal.
I agree , i feel like an International Women's day is good because it would be a day where everyone could actually appreciate women and all they had doe for people in the past. This will be a day for men to recognise how much women were treated unfairly in the past . It is also a day to raise awareness to others about how humans were treated in the past . International women day would be a day to remember all the ordinary women and all the other women .
The opinion I agree with is A. It is very important for people to know what women do in the word. Without women the world would not be what it is today. Women are so important. They do so much for us. For example women give birth, they take care of the house and they raise their children. One opinion that I disagree with is D. Women in some counties have been treated unfairly. Some girls are not allowed to go to school because of their gender. That is very wrong. Girls and women are much more that house wife's and house helps They can be biasness women and they can run their own businesses. For example women like Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Kelly Clarkson, Selena Gomez, Jessica Alba and many more. I really do think women are incredible.
Namasthe everyone, today I find this topic interesting and interactive.I agree with a.It's an opportunity to celebrate women's accomplishments. History bursts with important events that have made the world a better place. Women have always played essential roles in the movements for voting rights, civil rights, LGBTQ+ rights, labor rights, children's rights, and much more.even though it creates gender related issues but we women's have lot of struggles to face in day to-day life's than men. A woman named Clara Zetkin (Leader of the 'Women's Office' for the Social Democratic Party in Germany) tabled the idea of an International Women's Day. She proposed that every year in every country there should be a celebration on the same day - a Women's Day - to press for their demands.. "Women are the real architect of the society".
Thank you,
I agree with opinion A. International Women's Day should be celebrated as women have impacted our world and are continuing to impact our world. Women do so much for us, but we do not truly see it nor celebrate due to gender inequality. Gender inequality is the discrimination against a gender. Though women have been facing gender inequality for years and centuries, they have still made amazing achievements and have impacted our world so much. Marie Curie, Rosa Parks, Amelia Earhart, Harriet Tubman, Marie Van Brittan Brown, Maria Beasley, Hedy Lamarr, and many more have made such huge achievements and have done so many things in which impacted how our world works today. The listed women have made major impacts and achievements whether it's by inventing world-wide used things or even becoming the first or second person to achieve something, they have made impacts and achievements that SHOULD be celebrated, even if it's by learning more about them, thanking them, or even something little, it shouldn't be just them that are celebrated though, every single women should be appreciated as they play a huge role in our world and society. Though there is a day for women to be recognised, I disagree with opinion C. Opinion C states that International Women's Day will make a big difference in gender inequality, which I believe is not true. Though there is a day for women to be celebrated, the day may not change a lot of people's perspective on women and how they should be treated. Businesses and companies may not change anything for their female workers either, so would people really consider that a big difference? or would they just consider that a small difference? I believe it is a small difference, leading to me believing opinion C is false.
I agree with A as International Women's Day reminds people how great some women are. I disagree with C as there have been multiple International Women's Days and there hasn't been much of a change in gender inequality. I'm responding to B with the fact that B is a kinda bad opinion. Just because there is only an International Women's DAY, doesn't mean people will think women should only be celebrated for one day.
I agree with opinion A, this world is generally a patriarchal society except for some exceptions in some cultures. On a daily basis women are not appreciated or respected due to gender inequality but with International Women's day people are reminded of how incredible women are and are informed on the importance of giving women equal chances and why they should they should be respected and appreciated often. In response to opinion C, International Women day will greatly influence gender inequality positively as women are reminded on this day that they are incredible and they become more encouraged to fight gender equality in the society. People are also informed on the consequences of gender inequality which will greatly influence their mentality and gender equality will start being strived for not only by women but also men all over the world.
Hi forgiving_goat, you have clearly thought about why you have chosen your opinions, it has got me thinking about opinion C much more. Do you think it will have an influence on what men think too?
I agree with D because most people never want to learn about other people they just want things to be about themselves. I know not to be negative but, I disagree with C because like I said with statement D people never want to learn about other people they just want to learn about themselves. I want to explain letter B because it says that people will think that women are supposed to be celebrated for one day. That's not true. Because it's not fair to be celebrated for one day!
Hi cherished_physics, I would be interested to hear if you think it is possible to change people's minds and get them to learn about others?
It could be possible if we try to show what women are capable of. What do you think Siriliya?
Hi cherished_physics! I would like to think we should at least try and change people's perspectives and I agree with you that ones of the ways is by showing people
I agree with C because gender equality happens often to both genders but mainly to women so I think that International Womens day will help with gender equality so that is why I agree with C.
I agree with A because it is letting you know that women have a stand in this world because there is a day just for them.I disagree with D because every day just a little bit changes.
I agree with comment C because if women will make a big difference in gender inequality, then that means that women will probably make discrimination go away.
I'm interested to hear more capable_tomato on how Opinion C can make a difference in gender inequality, it would be great to have an example
International Women's Day is a great reminder of why we celebrate women. How is celebrated and what is its impact depends on how each country conceives it.
In my country it is a big day where women are gathered together to emphasize their empowerment.
However I think that if we want these day to make a difference we need daily to address the issue of gender equality.
It is well deserved celebrated but not enough for me. Throughout history we can find many role models of women that can remind us their strength.
I disagree with the statement that International Women's Day isn't good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day. International Women's Day serves as an important reminder to recognize and appreciate the contributions and achievements of women throughout history and in modern society. It highlights the need for gender equality and empowers women to strive for equal rights and opportunities every day. By celebrating International Women's Day, we are advocating for a more inclusive and respectful world for women now and in the future.
I choose D! I think that International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.
Sure, it is quite important to celebrate women. To respect them, to honour them. But do we really think that an abusive husband would change just because International Women's Day is celebrated? Or a woman with low self-esteem can be motivated simply because the day exists?
Can we say women will be given equality in the workforce on this single day, if we celebrate International Women's Day? Celebration of a single day cannot bring about much change. What can, is celebrating women EVERYDAY! What can bring about Gender Equality would be continuous awareness and help programmes and initiatives.
Celebrating this day is just a reminder to those who respect women to keep respecting them. I don't think it will bring about an impact on gender equality...
I agree with 4th statment I believe that International Women’s Day is great because it serves as a powerful reminder of the incredible contributions that women make to the world. This special day highlights the achievements and impact of women across various fields and industries. It helps raise awareness about gender equality and encourages society to appreciate and respect women’s abilities and talents. By celebrating International Women’s Day, we honour and recognize the vital role that women play in shaping our communities and societies.
The opinion I personally agree to is "A" because it is true that international women's day act as a reminder for us to make sure we never oppress women and give our best efforts to bring them at equal footing, various programs are organized around the globe to mark this day which brings awareness to people and make a big and positive difference in the mindsets of commoners. The opinion I disagree with is D because as I stated that it might be a small reminder for the people already in power but for women and especially housewife, mistreated office employees and labors it is a symbol for hope that they will surely one day attain equality and hence make a great difference!!!
Certainly! Here's a light-hearted take on the different opinions about International Women's Day:
- *I agree that "International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are."
- I disagree that "International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day."
- I will respond to "International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality."
Remember, celebrating and advocating for gender equality is essential every day, not just on International Women's Day! 😊.
Independence Day is a day to honor the freedom fighters, Mother's Day is to express gratitude to the mothers, so why not celebrate Women's Day to showcase the value of women and how they are growing every day?
I am in agreement with point A!
The history of Women's Day speaks for itself. On February 28th, 1909, the International Ladies’ Garment Workers’ Union (ILGWU) organized the first Women’s Day on February 28th in New York, USA. This day was celebrated to commemorate the strike of the ILGWU, which led to the improvement of working conditions for women and the promotion of equal rights.
Each women’s day either tells the story of women being supported and growing, or it tells the story of the women who are striving to grow but are not supported.
I am proud to say that the Indian government has always taken the better path. On this Women’s day, Union Minister of Haryana, Anurag THakur, launched Mahila Subhash Kavach, which provided 108 motorcycles to the Haryana Police to improve mobility and patrolling for women’s safety and security.
The Women and Child Development Ministry, the Education Ministry and UNICEF launched a campaign called ‘Kanya Shikha Pravesh Utsav’ to encourage girls to re-engage in the formal education and skills system. The aim is to build on existing schemes such as ‘Beti Bachao’ and ‘Beti Padhao’.
The campaign was accompanied by a series of celebrations and events at national and state levels. It also held an event to celebrate the entrepreneurial spirit of women in rural areas.
In the light of these initiatives, I believe that International Women's Day does have a significant impact on gender inequality.
I agree with option B.
The things women do should not be only appreciated on womens day..everyday we should remind ourselves that how great womens are and what all work they do for their family . And i disagree with D , it will actually make a huge difference in the society. As people will start recognizing the hardwork of a women.
Hello there!
I disagree with the quote “International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality.” I think that why do we need specific days to abolish gender inequality? Abolishing a superstition -in this case gender inequality-is a choice; if one knows that these stereotypes are existing in the society but doesn't want to contribute his/her part then nobody can do anything about it. Abolishing of stereotypes in the society don't need a specific day, but they need support of the people of the society..
thank you!
I agree with A. The reason for this is that Women are special in our daily lives. For example, women go through the struggles of getting a child and some women even have a miscarriage which can be one of the worst situations a woman may face. Another example that women are special in our daily lives, is that they do more housework than men(Unless they are single). This is because men mostly focus on work and gaining money than women. Some women are even called housewives since they always stay at home. This has happened ever since the centuries began. In all, this indicates that International Women's Day is very memorable for women to see how far they've worked hard to reach the freedom that they have today although some women are still being treated in an unfair way. Thank You!
Personality, I strongly agree with statement A, “International Women’s day is great because it reminds the world how incredible women are”. This is purely because in our everyday lives women are too often overlooked or not given the same appreciation as men are for doing the same or better things. I believe that, especially in the education system, International Women’s Day gives everybody a chance to reflect on the successes of both women in the past and the present, who may not currently be recognised enough. Not so much now, but especially in the past men have been recognised for creating or doing things which some women had actually done first so this day also gives us a chance to reflect on where credits should be awarded or should not be awarded.
I strongly disagree with statement B, “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserved to be celebrated for one day”. This is because I believe that this day sends the complete opposite message. For me, it sends the message that we are having to have a dedicated day to women because they aren’t celebrated enough everyday. Therefore, I believe that this day spreads awareness about all the fantastic things women have done and how this bias towards men should end as women should be being celebrated everyday just like men are.
Hiii, Hello, Namesthe and Vanakkam to everyone......
I agree with option A and C, because it is very true that women will get the inequality chance on that day and also continues throughout the year. It makes us remember the women who made the gender equality and protested to make the gender equality. Women are very much important in the society now a days as today they hold more salary job with them and they earn more than a man today. All these changes occurred by the protest and sacrifices made by the women in the old time.
I disagree with option B, because as I said above women's day will get the inequality chance on that day and also continues throughout the year. That is not the only day we celebrate women, women are celebrated daily but in a private manner. On that day only we celebrate them in the public manner.
I want to respond to option D, because this statement doesn't make any sense. Women's day is for making women to get their wanted right as they need. So this statement is very very wrong.
Thank you.
I agree with opinion B, because it is true that it seems that women's day is only one day, but really we should celebrate every single day of our lives that we are here. But this opinion makes me think about something else: why does not exist Men's Day, or at least that has been estabilished officialy? If we are searching for gender equality, both men and women should have a day to celebrate their gender, if not, that would not be equality in that sense, but anyway, we should be proud of ourselves every day of the year, not only one specific date.
I disagree with opinion D, this is due to the fact that with everything people do in this date make people realize that we should be equal in all ways
Hello topical talkers!
I feel like both the first and the second opinions are veracious at their own places. I really adore and admire the idea of celebrating and acknowledging women's existence on an international basis but the fact that this celebration lasts only for one day, disappoints me. You see, the women around us, let it be our mothers, sisters, wives or daughters constantly provide us with love, support and care non stop without complaining a bit. These women play indispensable roles in our lives and deserve to be celebrated and considered every day. We should not limit this celebration to one day and instead we should focus on showing gratitude towards them and cherishing every moment we spend with them. We should provide them with the love, respect and protection they deserve and honour their importance in our lives.
First of all, hi everyone.
In my opinion, the most suited answer is B. I also agree with A, but I would have to say that women and men equality is not only one day a year. Every day we must think on the equality between everyone, women are so incredible in the sense of working, on sports and intelligence as men are. Well, you must think that men, generally, are stronger than women due to their natural and physical development. Also, generally, women are more flexible than men. But, really, a man can be more flexible than a woman and a woman stronger than a man. In the sense of work, both men and women are able to perform any job.
The other day, I red a news saying:
They made an study about what gender is more intelligent and they came to a conclusive result: "the number of men with an intelligence quotient (IQ) of 125, which is the average for university graduates, is twice that of women. They also claim to have discovered differences in intelligence between some races and others."
What do you think? I don't agree. I don't think that intelligence is based only in studies. There are more than science or lenguage. There are a lot of things we must learn outside universities or schools. We must learn how to cook, how to be healthy, how to live.. but I Will never understand how society has make us think intelligence is based only in studies. Another question is, well, you have make a study of some universities, but, what about the rest? I don't think a gender is more intelligent than another, and less if we talk about studies. Both genders are intelligent. There is a case, in which men are a priority in Jobs than women, why? There is any sense in this thought. Women can be as radiant as men can be in a job.
The answer I disagree the most is C. I don't think that a day named like the women's day may have an important effect on the change of thinking of society to spread equality around the world. Every day should be a mark in that fight for equality.
Thanks for reading, bye!
I agree with point A that it reminds the world how incredible the women are .. there are some people who don't know the importance of women so for them this day would be like raising awareness about women ,to show the importance of women, to show the empowerment of women etc. I strongly disagree with point D because can make a huge difference for gender inequality because the International women's day represents the importance of women and lastly I would give my opinion on pont C as I mentioned above that International women's day is the day to show the importance of women and to showcase the empowerment of women.
I agree with B and I disagree with A. Though I don't think international women's day is bad but still the fact that it exists proves that women are not celebrated enough in this world and it requires us a particular day where we feel grateful for them. I think gender equality would be achieved when there wouldn't be a need for such days and both the genders will finally be celebrated every single day. So yes I believe that women should be celebrated everyday rather than one single day but at this point international women's day can help us achieve that equality until we won't need it anymore.
Well, I think that woman need ti be recognised because they are essential to the development of society, they have done lots of things importante for the presente but I also think that they are already recognised an have the same rights than men
Thank you for sharing your thoughts - can you explain more about how women are essential to the development of society?
Alright, women are of great importance in the community and society in aspects of:
- Mothers: Women play essential roles in the family as mothers, they take care of the children. They nurture the children and provide discipline to them and teach them good morals.
- Wives and partners: Women as partners provide emotional support to their spouse and also companionship.
- Business Entrepreneurs: Women support and promote innovation and change, create businesses, and contribute to social and economic growth.
I think that international women’s day will make a great difference for gender inequality because in some places where women are being discriminated, it is so because of the fact that people who live there are illiterates and their minds are not open enough to see the important of training women in the society and celebrating their day. So if international women’s day is to be celebrated for the first time there maybe by someone from a developed place who wants to make some improvements in that community, it will make a great difference as they will be exposed to some reasons why women are supposed to be trained and their day should be celebrated .
I agree with A and C the most. I don't agree with B, but I understand it. I think International Women's day is really necessary for all women that live in a situation of inequality that many people cannot understand. But women should not only be celebrated that day, as St Valentine's Day or other celebration that is unimportant because is only one day of the year. I think what is reminded on Women's Day should be reminded every day of the year until inequality is almost or completely gone. All the manifestations and everything that is needed to fight the situation of women all around the globe. It's obvious that not in all countries this is effective, as there are many differences between countries in terms of gender equality. But I think that we must do everything that is on our hands to stop the inequality.
Women's Day is very very important. I think the world must be remembered that women are not less in any term that men, so this that is completely necessary.
I agree with option A but I disagree with option B. I agree with option A because women are great and they help us so much in our everyday life to make sure that everything is in order when you are ready to do the things you need to do.
I disagree with option B because women deserve to be celebrated more than once a year, they deserve to be celebrated at least everyday of the year.
THANK YOU.
From my point of view I agree with C because some times we forget about women as there are several reasons why nowadays there are also some problems with women, in other words the problem isn't so much for them I think the biggest problem is in men, as a men I can realise some times been like limited as I think some things people could say time ago nowadays is imposible to say that words because you can harm some other people or you can also make them angry. To conclude, I think is a good idea to be a women's day but I think also we need to think about men, I know that this is thanks for all the women's they fought all along years but I think men are also needed in the today's world.
personally i think celebrating it is good because with all the achievements they have done in history it is nice to learn about it, also it will make people more aware of things like this which is important
I agree with statement A because Intenational Women's Day would remind us how great women can be at a range of different things as men can be.
I disagree with statement B because I think many women will be satisfied to have one day to celebrate themselves and International Women's Day will make that large step towards gender equality.
I think statement C is a true statement because it will be largely appreciated by women all over the world that they will finally have one day to themselves.
Thank you for your time.
Hello everyone,
I agree with C because we have a international womens day, but what about the men? They do get a day but i feel like the men isnt talked about enough, nobody really cares over international mens day, nobody really talks about it. I feel like international mens day should be praised more. Some people dont even know theres a day for men. I feel like it is because back then women weren't 'good enough' to do proper work, but both days should be equal. It just isnt celebrated enough and are overlooked because people think that men has no problems, but really they do but it isnt just talked about enough. International womens day should be done to celebrate about womens achievements, but the men isnt talked about. I think that men should get an equal amount of pride than women. If men arent going to get an equal day then there should be no day.
Should special days be reserved for groups of people who are discriminated against the most?
I agree on A , It's because International Women's Day is about Women in addition to what they have been through. The Day celebrates what women have been through over the past decades. The day celebrates social, economic cultural, and political achievements. No one will ever forget how women changed the world , and I hope you don't either.
I agree with opinion A because it is a day when everyone can be reminded of all the great things women have accomplished. Women have done many incredible things and they deserve to be recognized. I feel like they all deserve a day for all of the things they have done.
I would prefer option A, which states, "International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." When women called out an industrial action, in Russia during the Russian Revolution, it eventually came to be known as the 'Internationals Women's Day.'
This day brings proud feelings inside everyone, and thereupon it marks how incredible women are and what women can do. But, it's simply more than that, as it reduces gender equality, leading to women empowerment, and giving fair chance to women too.
I surely disagree with option D, which states, "International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality." It would make much difference if people really try. Some actually don't want the growth or independence of women, they don't support women's movement, and so they think that Women's Day will not make any difference. But if chances are provided to men and women equally, difference would be seen.
Consequently, 'International Women’s Day' motivates women all over the world to stand equally and independently as a man does, and have same rights as a man has.
I agree with A because it could give confidence to young girls and to grown women especially since they know that they are living in a positively changing and improving world which appreciates the contributions women made in history and in the present. Although there is still a long way to go before we reach complete gender equality but I do think that it is a good idea have a celebration for women. Also people will gain more respect and hopefully be more aware of gender inequality in any environment.
International womens day wont make much of a difference to gender inequality because you celebrate it for a one day and you should think about this every day.
I highly disagree with option B. I say so because I speak on behalf of all women in the world. International women's day is a day set aside to celebrate all our legendary heroes who were women and stood to fight for our country. This doesn't mean that men are not to be celebrated but it is just simply a day set aside to celebrate all which women contributed to the country.
Is it possible for one person to speak on behalf of an entire group?
I believe international women's day is good because it makes all people -mostly men- remember that they are not the ones in power of women and women are just as powerful and amazing as men, just because men are mostly in power that doesn't mean that women should be foreshadowed, therefore i believe that international women's day is a very good day that everyone should celebrate and women should earn respect in the world
I agree with A. I believe this as International Women's Day is for the purpose of reminding everyone of all great things women have done and that in the past they fought for their rights. It also reminds us that women are not inequal to men and vice versa and that it can put a spotlight on some people who disagree. I also agree with C for the previous reason and also that International Women's day can teach people women can do great things.
i agree with D because national woman's day is only for short period of time , and some people might think that it isn't important only because it is for day.
Hello there! I agree with opinion A. To summarize the comment, it's saying that it reminds the world how fantastic women are. I think that this is fantastic as a young lady, because most of the time men only get recongnized due to the fact that women only get one month of recongnition. Also, women should be recongnized for the things and contributions that they made to todays society and how they helped out.
A bunch of women have helped with a various amount of things. Such as Katherine Johnson, Sojourner Truth, Ada Lovelace, Ida B. Wells, Dorothy Height, Claudette Colvin, and many more great women. Most of the time the names that I have listed and women do not get spoke about. The opinion that I disagree with with is D. I disagree with this, because if I go back to what I stated before.
Women only get one month of spotlight. However, women do get spotlight all around, but most of the time women are mostly talked about on a specific day and month. Although, I do not all that much disagree with option d, because it will make a difference but at the same thing it wouldn't make that much of a difference. Why? Because at the end of the day sexism is still going to be happening and 9/10 normalized.
I agree with A because woman are great. Women have fought hard to be treated the same as man. And its not our choice if we were originally born as female. Still to this day women get treated unfairly. Like there are some things that men can work but woman can't. Or men get paid more than woman. I agree with A because woman are incredible and they have suffered a lot.
I disagree with B because even though woman are only celebrated one day at least we have a day. The one day can make a difference like people can do huge things like parades and big celebrations. Woman get treated good for this 1 day. So that is why I disagree with B.
Interesting comment poetic_eagle. Did you know there is an International Men's Day? Does this change your opinion?
I agree with D because not a lot of people know international women’s day even exists so they can’t celebrate it. I also think that it isn’t made a big enough deal about because more people worldwide should know about it. I disagree with A because people shouldn’t know how incredible women are for just one day women deserve a bigger recognition than just one day. Finally I choose to respond to C because how can one day make a big difference to a WHOLE problem of inequality. Women have had to fight for their rights for years and they get one day and people expect that to make a big difference???
Let me know ur opinions
Well....
I agree with A because females are often treated like they don't matter, and they do, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. March 8th is a time where females are recognized for all their contributions to our world, our confidence, our personalities. Females protect, deliver, and rise the population by tremendous numbers. The population is rising by billions right now (8.1 bilion and counting) thanks to females. I also agree with B because women deserve to be celebrated for more than one day. I can't imagine a man going up to his wife and saying "Thank you, you're amazing!" only on International Woman's Day. I disagree with D because we (men) can actually do our part in supporting women and give them confidence. In America, women are treated like actual women and not like pincushions or punching bags, but some men still don't support the idea of breaking the barriers. I think IWD will give women strength and confidence to join the fight against gender inequality. International Women's Day is a time to drop what you're doing and celebrate the woman(s) closest to you. It's a time to celebrate all the women that did extraordinary things throughout history, like Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks. It's not just that, it's to celebrate the equality that women have. It's a time to raise your voice about the inequality that's going on.
It's time to break the barrier and get women on the same level as men.
I will stay with letter A, " International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are." I say this because in my opinion, I would say that " International Women's Day" is a good thing, not a bad thing! I say this because " International Women's Day" celebrates women, and in different cultures. Also haven't you heard that in the news some women were mistreated by men? I got this good information from my classmates. If this were a bad thing, then this day will be changed to " International Men Day." This might happen someday. Also women would not appreciate this day. After all women have been through. Finally if this was a bad thing then, this will cause everything to be in the news. It can almost be like every day! So would you want these types of harsh things to be on women? This is why " International Women's Day" is an good thing for women.
I think national women's day is important because men have their own day.
The opinion I agree with the most is opinion A because it is true that women are amazing and we at least deserve to have one day to celebrate. The opinion I disagree with is opinion B. Women might only have one day to celebrate but we are special and we will show that we deserve our day to celebrate ourselves. The opinion I would like to respond to is opinion C. Yes it will make a big difference in gender inequality but will it make the men feel special?
I agree with letter A. In my opinion it is important for women to be recognized for all the good things they have done. For example, women role models. As a young female I feel that is something that should be celebrated. One letter I do not agree with is letter is D. It can make a difference for women equality because not only does it share accomplishments that women have made, it shows how they impact society. That can make a difference and change the way people see women and what men and women can do.
I agree with A because woman should have a special day to remember all the special things they have done for this world also without women we wouldn't be alive be they had to go through all the pain of giving birth to us and i also think women should have a day because back then woman didn't have rights for example they couldn't vote and they also didn't have the same rights as men so in conclusion i agree with A because women are so special to this world.
I agree most with A and D. Although women should be recognised more often International women's day is when women are recognised for their achievements. Until total equality is reached international women's The day is a step forward in that process. International women's day is a reminder to the world that women deserve the same as men. I disagree most with D because it definitely does make a difference schools can teach students about a woman who has made an impact on society. Leading to a positive change in the mindset of some children.
I agree with the statement that "International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are for example look at the last queen Elizabeth she was a women and she was well known ." This day serves as an important opportunity to celebrate the achievements and contributions of women around the globe. It highlights the strength, resilience, and talent of women in various fields such as science, arts, politics, and business. By recognizing and honouring women on this day, we can inspire future generations to strive for gender equality and empower women to reach their full potential. International Women's Day is a moment to appreciate and respect the important role that women play in shaping our society.
I disagree with the statement that International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day. International Women’s Day is important as it serves to raise awareness about gender equality and women’s rights also we have a men day so we celebrate both genders but women day is known more because of what women hade to fight for .It is a day to honour the achievements and contributions of women throughout history. By highlighting women’s accomplishments on this day, we can inspire future generations to strive for equality every day. Celebrating women on International Women’s Day does not diminish the value of women throughout the year; rather, it emphasizes the ongoing importance of recognizing and supporting women's rights and empowerment.
I agree with the first one. International women's day is celebrated to show that women are still tough and it also tells them that they also deserve a chance in life and they also have their own aim and aspiration to complete in life because what ever a man can do a woman can do if not better
I disagree with B, women should not feel that the International women's day is the only day they are celebrated, not only their birthdays do they also celebrate but it is every day. Women should know that they are celebrated every single day of every single year, because celebrations are not only about the gifts you share give but it is about the fun and love you share that makes it a celebration. So women should know that their family love them so much so it is a celebration every day.
I agree with opinion A. I believe International Women's Day is a special day to recognize and celebrate how amazing and powerful women are. It reminds people of all the hard work women have put into making a good change in today's world, and the many things they have accomplished throughout the years.
I disagree with opinion D. International Women's Day can be a way to highlight the fight for gender equality. It can raise awareness of women's rights and gender inclusivity. This day can inspire more women and even men to take action in gender equality and create a change in the world.
We agree with D as it is only one day so surely the impact it will have on gender inequality will be limited due to the fact it is only one day. Both women and men should be celebrated every day. Limiting both to one day a year reduces their successes and accomplishments down to a single 24 hours.
I agree with statement A, international womens day is a day to remind us how much women are worth and what they do for us. It helps us explore the changes in the world womens make and help destroy stereotypes and recognise women as an individual. However, i disagree with statement b because international womens day is just to broaden respect women rather than to cage it it into one. An arguement could be, shouldn't everyday be classed as women's day. Do we celebrate men on one specific day? This segregates women and men as with men they are celebrated highly constantly while with women they have one day where they get great recognition.
I agree with statement A, international womens day is a day that women are recognised for their skills and celebrate their inspiring acts. Women are incredible and do not get enough credit for their work.When we celebrate women, they feel more balanced in society and more wanted. This day is to help women realise how powerful they are. However i disagree with statement D, international womens day is important for women to recognise their worth, by engaging with the celebration you indirectly raise awareness and contribute to the resepct of women.
I agree with out D the most because I feel it is seen more as a day to celebrate woman and not highlight the issues they face daily.For example woman face misogyny every day but it's only truly recognised on international women's day yes it may stop for a couple of days near international women's day but it is overlooked or ignored other days.Some may feel however that international woman's day does a lot for gender inequality as for a day we can say how the system should change and how it can change with the help of women but think it is only for one day imagine how much more gender inequality could be fixed if we challenged it every day.In conclusion I think international women's day doesn't do a lot for gender inequality because its seen as a day to celebrate women rather than change the misogynistic system.
I think that international women's day is a great way to celebrate women and it's a brilliant way to remember all of the great things women have done for us.For example,Rosa Parkes changed the racial segregation in 1955.She said no to the government because of the way they were treating the black people.This was a big step for women.We need to think about schools and education that bring light to International Women's Day .I believe that if we talk about it more in schools,then we can share it across the world so women will be respected more.I think that one day to celebrate women is not enough.We shouldn't need an international women's day or an international men's day because we should celebrate and respect men and women every day.
In conclusion,I think that gender inequality should be stopped and something has to be done.I think that we should keep international men and women day but I think that we should stop gender equality for good.
Thank you for listening to my explanation.
I disagree with A because International Women’s Day is great no doubt but because if it reminds the world about how incredible women are then it will start to be inequality towards the men. What I am saying is that if women day happens the men will start thinking that the women are being unequal themselves but they are saying that women are now being equal because there are 6 days dedicated to women while men's is not as known and as much as that of women. This can cause riot in the country and it makes the men go ballistic.
|Another reason that I do not agree with A is that if International Women's Day is celebrated after that what happens, people just go back to their daily work so I just think that there is no significance of women's day.
THANK YOU.
I also agree with you because if this causes a riot in the world this might become a mess so then what is the point of all that hard work and dedication if all their getting is nothing but trouble.
I certainly agree with you because if women get their own 6 days when these days they already have rights, what rights are they fighting for? We all understand that International Women's Day is a day where we can remember what women did then what about men? They { these days } did as much work as women did...
I think B because women deserve more than just a day because in the past women got treated as slaves and some women even were slaves so i think women should have a week not just a day.
I disagree with open wallaby, first of all men were the ones who were treated as slaves more often than women but the women were more sad than the men because their husbands were being taken away from them this made them so sad 😞. And secondly women are celebrated everyday because celebrations are about the love we share and their families love them so much so in my opinion it is considered as a celebration.
I agree with option D because celebrating women shouldn't be just for one day - females should be known every day. This is the same for men, every gender should be known everyday. International Woman's Day just celebrates women, it doesn't show how hard women work and how they suffer more than others or how they do more work but do not receive gratitude. So, I ask: why is there a social bias that men are more important than women even though women sometimes do more work? I feel like not many people realise that women are actually extremely important.
In my opinion, I think that I agree with B because women are really powerful but sometimes men can control women. In the media, in subjects like sports or leadership elections, nearly 65% prime ministers are men. Women should be given a chance to show how peaceful countries could be if women could be themselves just for once.
I disagree with C as even if we do celebrate International Women Day, still we do not do much about the inequality that is going through hardship and some countries do not even let women vote !
i think B because women and men should be celebrated everyday and everyone should be equal and treated fairly
International woman's day I don't think that is a good thing because why is there just one day for woman? Why can't we celebrate them everyday? Woman's rights are so important so we have to listen to everyone's voices no mater what gender. There are lots of jobs and things that either men do a lot or woman do a lot and we need to stop that. We need to make everything equal so no one feels left out.
Thank you for that wonderful comment, but I want to ask you this question, why is it just one day for you that you celebrate your birthday in a year, why don’t you celebrate your birthday every da y.
So what I’m trying to say is that because we celebrate woman’s international day once every year does not mean that we only appreciate women one day but it is to create awareness and also to praise women, remind us of how incredible women are.
So celebrating women one day is not to sure the importance of women for only one day but it serves as a reminder to us that women should not be neglected in the society but rather should be seen as equal with men.
THANK YOU SO MUCH…….
I think international women's day is good because we have to praise women because they created men and without men there would be no hard work and no hard work everything would be not strong like houses,you need cement to make houses men made cement you need bricks to make a house and men made bricks so without women's there would be no hard work.
I disagree because women can do the same. You don't need men to create houses, cement or bricks.
quite right, playful_deer. Women can make all those things; women can make all things.
I agree with option D, as making a national day for women will not change other peoples mindsets even if a lot of people agree with it, their opinion with a fixed mindset on women cannot change unless they try and become more open-minded. I disagree with option B as even though it is making a whole day just appreciating women and what they have done; it will not make other people believe that women should just be celebrated for one day. It would more likely make people aware of how important women are to society and not just one day, but everyday.
hi everyone i personally think that women's rights should be talked about more there are always these 'alpha males' everywhere online stating how women should serve them but really they probably still live with their mothers even if they are a grown man.
I strongly agree with, "International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are", because it definitely reminds us of everything women have done. We celebrate it to honour the movement for women's rights and to build support for achieving universal suffrage for women.
I agree with A because it allows us to gain insight into the achievements women have managed to attain. It lets us look into the history of women and how they have fought for their rights with unwavering perseverance. It allows us to be proud of the women of the past, present, near and far future. It inspires us to be appreciative of women and to acknowledge their achievements. I also, however, disagree with B. B does not put into place the idea that women should only be celebrated for one day, in fact, I have not seen a single individual say as such. In fact, it allows us to look at how far women have come - and therefore, allow ourselves to look at women in a much more educated and positive light all year round. I believe that international women's day has made a huge difference in empowering women and allowing everyone, regardless of gender, to look and be educated on the achievements of past and present women.
I completely agree with quote A & C, as despite my young teenage age, I believe in feminism and gender equality. Women have been put down, abused, thought of as less than men for hundreds of years, and should have at least one day to celebrate how progressive as a society we have became as women's rights have became very prominent in most of the world now. i think it is great to celebrate the women of the world who have fought for their rights, and been proud of who they are, and what incredible things that they can do, equal to a man. for example, malala yousafzai who spoke up against the taliban who of which challenged women's necessary right to education. it is important that we celebrate people like this in society because it is rare that women who do incredible things are very praised and celebrated for what they do.
"International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are," I agree with this statement because on International Women's Day you get to educate yourself about brilliant women in the world and what they have done to help society progress. "International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day," I disagree with this statement because it isn't like they are the only people getting celebrated internationally as their is an International Men's Day that is celebrated on the 19th of November. "International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality," I find this statement interesting as it can be both right and wrong. Women can benefit from International Women's Day as society learns how women are important and how they need to be celebrated and appreciated. Despite this some people have fixed mindsets and think differently as they believe that women are inferior to men and how women just cause trouble and do not do good for society.
Personally, i agree with D as despite having a day for women, they still struggle with inequality in daily life such as the 'pink tax' and general discrimination to add on this we have many days/months for oppressed groups such as black history month, so far racism still hasn't improved due to it and it's the same with international women's day. On top of that, i disagree with A as there are days for everything right now, including toilets! I don't think women are on par with toilets.
I agree with Opinion C, this is because I believe lots of women feel empowered on International Women's Day, they feel this way due to the female recognition in stereotypically male dominated spaces, such as science, sports and mechanics. International Women's Day makes women feel noticed and proud to be female. As this special day is taught in school, it creates a safe environment for women to succeed and thrive in due to the surrounding males being educated on successful women. Also, as young men are being taught on these female role-models, in the future men will realise that women do not need to be oppressed and can have the same freedom as a man can in the same career. However, Option D tells us that International Women's Day will not equal the freedom of women, which I believe is incorrect. I think that because having a Worldwide day just for women, will help the younger females in the future as men will understand as women are just as intelligent as they are (if not smarter). I would like to reply to Option B, my reason for this is that women deserve to be celebrated all the time, but why is having a day better than having a whole month? I personally would rather just one day to be spoke out and make a difference than a month which will take longer and have less of a quick approach to talking about it. Thank you for reading!!!
Personally, I think that international women's day is great, but i also think there should be an international men's day, because surely if we are only celebrating women, men will eventually be wanting to be as equal as women are
Good news - there is an International Men's Day!
Hi Topical Talk,
On the 28/02 my class joined a live lesson and now I know so much about women in media. I agree with D because international women's day is a great idea however it's only runs for one day, my class thought it wound be a good idea if there was a day were male and female can celebrate who they are rather than women having a day all to themselves. But, not a lot of people know that women's day is coming up and I think they don't know because they don't care. Many believe that it won't make a change at all on how women are going to be treated because as we know women were told to stay home and cook for the family or to stay with children but the times have change and I am glad that they have.
Thank you for reading!
I strongly agree with opinion A. Women deserve to be recognized; women are mostly treated differently from men. Men get so many more opportunities because of their gender, so when international women's day is held, it helps people recognize women and their greatness. Women deserve to be recognized whether it is women's day or not.
In conclusion this is why I agree that women's day remind people about how incredible women are.
Well, I most definitely agree that international women's day promotes right and change for are society, even though some countries don't expose it as much as others. Because I chose that answer, it obviously means that I disagree with choice D because I think it gives a big focus to women from past and present. Although B might occur in certain countries, I believe international women's day is extremely important for women who wan't to speak out to the world.
I actually agree with D after that live lesson about women in the media. ( The one that was at 10:00 am)
I think D because it isn't making any change at all. It might raise awareness but it isn't making inequality any different. It is also unfair because there is only a women's day and not a men's day. There should also be a men's day because more than 50% of jobs are done by men like the army and doctors and even police officers. Even though men "seem" to be recognised everyday, they aren't. Men should also be recognised as well. We should try and be equal.
Jumping to another topic, equality is not always the answer. This is because equity is more useful because you are being fair. For example:
There are three people watching a racing game. One of them is very tall, one of them is average height and the other one is super short. You each give them one block so they can see over the fence in front. The results are that the tall one can see clearly but the average one and the short one can't see at all. But if you don't give the tall one any blocks, the average one is given one block and the short one two blocks then all of them can see past the fence. That is called equity.
I also agree with B because it does only seem like women have only ONE day to be recognised. It is similar to Black History month. Black people shouldn't be recognised for only ONE month, they should be acknowledged all the time.
I disagree with A as it is like my reasons for D. Women are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE and that is true. Same with men. But why are we only being recognised on ONE day just because of gender inequality. What about the men in the world that try?
In my opinion, I agree with option B because even if there is a day, once a year, where women are remembered for their achievements and phenomenal goals, well once a year is definitely not that much and well it should not be like that. People think that international Women's day, is enough for women as they are fragile and delicate and they are not important to this world. Well you are wrong! Facts say that women are more organised, responsible and more smarter than men. So without women, men would loose a lot of there money and probably will be unhealthy. Everyday, is like international Men's day! For example, lets say, Rishi Sunak gets promoted to a really expensive, essential meeting with Sadiq Khan. Now that's something! I mean, how much women leaders and referees do you see in a football match. For me, none!
Another example is prime ministers. When you see prime ministers, they are men however, the first women prime minister was called Baroness Margaret Thatcher. Now she, was one of Queen Elizabeth's II friends and she was so famous. Out of all of the prime ministers, she stayed prime minister for the longest. The female gender is remarkable! Women are not viruses. We are all the same species so we should all have respect. How much opportunities do women get? Everyone just thinks that women are good at beauty, fashion and models for Runway and stuff. That is not how you use women! How do you feel about this? Does anyone agree with me? Do you think that women will get more rights in the future?
I think C because International womens day helps women see they are important when sometimes it feels like everything is about men. I think you see more men in sport especially cricket and football, having a special day helps by making sure that women have equal sporting opportunities and can play well not just men.
I don't agree with D because if International womens day did not exist women would be sad because men would continue to get paid more in football and the differences wouldn't be highlighted.
I think that international women's day should be celebrated because women are incredible, been put through so much and have fought to have rights for such a long time. Genders have been segregated for years on end and now women are finally and thankfully in a satisfactory place in society where we can vote, compete and have opinions. Therefore, international women's day should be celebrated all over to world. However, I think there should be an international men's day to celebrate men so it is diverse and we can celebrate men. That way we can carry on a society in the future where everyone is equal and everyone is celebrated. What are your opinions this?
Hello,
Every life begins with a women. Every women in our lives is unique and beautiful. Wishing a very happy Women's Day to strong, intelligent, talented and simply wonderful women of this world.
I agree with option A because any women is of course incredible she works for her own to take money, any women in the world needs to be celebrated because she's special and different from any other person in the world.
I disagree with option B because the women is celebrated only one time although many people will say they are celebrated one time because they're not important but that's wrong. They're celebrated one time because they are stronger, special and talented so they're more than important.
I respond to option C because the women's day will not make a big difference in the gender inequality.
I want to say for all the women in the world (Always keep your face forward to the sunshine with pride and dignity).
Thanks
I agree with option 'A' because women deserve to be recongnized for their contribution to this planet. For example, Josephine G. Cochran made the dishwasher because she wanted to use water pressure because using sponges and scrubbers was too "time consuming" because it really is and we got the dishwasher. So that is why I agree with option 'A'.
I strongly chose option A, as Women's International Day is a significant occasion to assertively recognize and support the invaluable contributions of women to their respective countries.I pick A because I think that Women's International day could show us and support what the women contributed to their country.
Hello! In my opinion, I agree with option A because National Women's Day is to recognize women and their accomplishments, not for you to think that women are useless and only need to be celebrated for one day. Also, there is a chance that National Women's Day will change people's minds about women, but I don't think that it will make a big difference. That's just my opinion, if you have something different to say, you are free to comment. Bye!
In my opinion, I agree with option D. Even though option A talks about reminding people about how incredible women are which basically means the great accomplishments that historic women achieved over the long period of time. This won't solve the gender inequality between men and women because some men will start things off in a conversation about stereotyping women and slandering women on why they don't deserve a day just dedicated to them. People stereotype women on some of them being a housewife and staying in the kitchen and insult them, for example by saying, "Go make me a sandwich.", can really insult women who are housewives. This really won't make a change in gender inequality whether or not if there is an International Women's Day, meaning having an International Women's Day will not make much of a difference in gender inequality.
I agree with option A because people need to understand the importanceof women through various initiatives. Unfortunately, women haven't been given the same respect given to men. Therefore, making people aware of this fact, it is vital to celebrate women which we do by celebrating women's day. It might seem unfair but sometimes to treat people equally, those who aren't at equal positions need to be given a push by the society. Women's day is a wondrful opportunity to display skills that women possess along with creating a statement for others.
I disagree with option D, because any sort of step taken towards making women equal in the eyes of everyone will always help them. People need to understand how without a woman, one can not thrive. Women's day will help promote positive thoughts amongst society. It would definitely make a difference.
Option B seems fair too, but in a society where women aren't celebrated enough, this day is an important date tomake people aware of how important women are. They deserve to be treated nicely at all times, but by celebrating women's day we aren't doing it for a day but help others realise that they need to be treated amazingly everyday. It's a great way to spread information that could change many minds.
I strongly agree with opinion (A), because some people on earth need to be reminded about how great women are, since they are the ones who brought you to the world and they gave you love, especially some single mothers who thought their child all the basic elements in life, had to raise them without their dad and tries to provide them with the best education to help them become something big in the near future.
I disagree with (D), because intentional women's day might help some people realize how hard some women have been working, but some people will ignore all what they have been doing and will rather follow what the men have been doing. I would like respond to (B), because I think women's day is a very great thing, but I think the reason why women are celebrated for a day is because some people can't celebrate for a week or multiple days, since some of them have jobs or have work to do, so they can't be celebrating for more than a day or else a business will be slow causing stress for some people.
I am in the middle I choose option
D and A ,In my own opinion I think that womens day is good to celebrate ,it is made to empower women to work more harder ,but on a second thought how would the other gender feel about it ?
Men also have men's day which is on November 19,2024 but it's not being pronounced like the women's day . I think that female gender are given more attention than the males so , this is being bias to the opposite gender .
My point is after celebrating women's day , the next day
nobody would be worrying on how to buy gift for their mother sister aunty or any female relative ,not everybody would show love or be kind to women or girl child the way they did on women's day again ,everybody would live their normal life again .
I agree with B because every day should be an International Women's Day where everyone or anyone will be treated the same no matter what..... Everyone should have the right to be treated the way everyone around them would want to be treated. Although International Women's Day is a day to remember what women have done, that should be an everyday thing where women can do as much as the same things men can do.
I genuinely think that International Women's Day is a good thing to celebrate, but it shouldn't be restricted to just one day, because women should be recognised and treated fairly every day. We should stop looking at women as pathetic human beings, and look at them as amazing, helpful WOMEN, so I agree with Statement B.
I disagree with C, as unfortunately one day isn't enough to address all the problems of gender inequality. People would have to debate and reflect on how they acted towards women in the past and present and how or if they will change their behaviour to women. They do everyday jobs to keep people they care for safe.
I think international women's day is a good and bad thing because there is not an international men's day, but also most women are harassed by police when it is the police's job to stop harassment .Women are mostly treated unfairly when they are 50% of the worlds population. Women are treated like maids because in the past women would mostly cook,clean and take care of the children. Most men believe that women are useless and should not do anything but housework. International women's day is only for one day, after that day men could go back to making women feel useless. Men should get an international men's day because men work hard to get money to buy food and pay rent. I strongly agree with statement D because one day will not make any difference to gender inequality. Women only got half of their rights in 1928 to vote. I disagree with statement A because international women's day does not show how incredible women are because men could still think women are not pathetic.
I agree with A because some women did amazing things in the past and in 1903 Emmeline Pankhurst decided to fight for women's rights.So women had to work really hard because the men were not giving them the attension they wanted so they used violence. This is why I agree with A because all the things women did in the past.
International Women's day is a day to celebrate women around the world ,but why is there no International Men's day? International Women's day is not bad but some men could be offended of how there is no International men's day . My personal opinion is that women deserve their own day because in the Victorian times women didn't have
a lot of rights and they had to work harder to get rights than men because men make the laws.
I agree with option B because International Women's day should not be for just one day, celebrating women, but for every day. Women do not deserve to be praised and glorified for just a day and they should not be put down on the rest. Even though this day marks the freedom of the amazing women who lived before, live now and are going to live in the future, should they not be recognised at all times? Also, Black History Month is a whole month, whereas women, of all races, are only honoured for a day. I believe that they should have a whole month too! (By the way I also think that Black History Month should be every day as well, and we should not have 'just a day' for anything, in my opinion!)
I disagree with option D a little, because a lot of people think that this day marks the day when women received their equal rights to men, and not their fantastic qualities and who they are. International Women's Day doesn't just change opinions, it changes a lot of minds and even lives! This day might stop stereotypes slightly, because this day marks the spectacular things that women did to change the world. Without this day, a lot of people wouldn't see how great women are. In a man's point of view, they may believe that there should be an International Men's Day as they fought in the war and served our country. But do they not remember all the significant WOMEN who were nurses, ambulance drivers, factory workers - the list goes on and on! If there is no gender better than another, then why have a day just for women or why have a day just for men? Celebrate everyone every day and do your part for them, as you may not know what they had to do for you. Thank you.
In my opinion I believe international women's day is seen as a bad thing because nowadays women are believed to have flipped the stereotype but the question is will the stereotype flip so much that me will be experiences sexism?
Sexism is the belief that one gender is superior to the other, so one day men may become second class citizens.
In my school there are three male staff this is the first brief example of the stereotype being flipped, but has the stereotype been faded out or does men still have the upper hand.
I think that International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality. I believe this because men/boys will think it's not fair and then make a boys day when men are the reason why we started the day in the first place. If they didn't treat us as if we were their slaves/property then we wouldn't have this day. I wonder to myself " How did men claim power in the first place if women make men and risk their life giving birth?" Personally they should make a day for women everyday since women had such a hard past.
If we are all equal why is it that men get more money in a job than women. If we wanted at least 50% of a men's salary we would have to work so much harder. That's why i believe that international Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality
I predict that a women's day should be allowed because men treat women differently than other men and I personally find it unfair. Men should treat women the same as everybody else and gender should not matter everybody is the same!. Thank you for reading my comment
i think women should be treated the same as men in media
Can you explain what you mean?
I agree with (d) " International Women's Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality". I think this because it is only 24 hours that is being celebrated and after that day is over people are more likely to get back to their normal lives and maybe forget about gender inequality . Every day people should be reminded that men and women are the same and that both genders of doing the things that they want to do. I don't concur with option (c) " International Women's Day will make a big difference to gender inequality " . I don't think it will make a big difference because people are just celebrating and not actually doing anything to change gender inequality.
(B) because if it is just one day of the year no one will really care because they will just forget so i think that it should be more than just one day and we need to fight for gender equality so that women can also have jobs and chances that men also have so in my opinion we need to remember women's day like every week so that we don't forget.
I agree with A because women shall deserve good news of all the hard work they do! I also think that women must be proud of themselves because in 1840 there was woman's suffrage but until 1920 women started to be noticed of all their hard work and now women are treated equally! everyone needs to be proud of themselves and for all the hard work they put into their lives!
I think that D is right because it is only one day and what can be done in that short 24 hours shouldn't we be fighting for the rights of woman everyday
Hi.
In my opinion I agree with option D. The reason why I personally think option D stands out the most is because I believe International woman's day shouldn't be celebrated for just one day I say it should be celebrated every single day because it's absolutely unbelievable to just celebrate something so essential for just one single day! We should all stand up for human rights.
i think A because it is just one day of the year and it shows that women are special and have always got a chance and are allowed to do whatever they want so not forced to do something that they don't want to do.
I think international women's day is good because they created many men and you need men to do all the hard work like building,football,cricket and swimming instructor.If we don't start letting women's have there rights what rights will men have and it's not fair on women's because if they don't have their rights they might not be making or creating men anymore.
Women can also do all the jobs you mentioned too, warmhearted_tuba.
international women day will make a big change to gender equellity and men will see what women do for us and women even go into the army and war and they have more luck to set peace to the world and they dont even have to fight they could even just talk to the other countree to set peace to the war
For many years women have been doubted and been under a lot of pressure.it is absolutely correct the fact that International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world how incredible women are. It is high time that people realize how important of the role they play in the world and thank them for all the things they have offered to make the world better.
On the other hand I completely disagree with point D which points out that International Women's Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality since people will come to the realization about their importance and stop following the old patriarch conception.
Finally I would like to respond to point B.
It might be true that International Women's Day isn't good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.
It may be partially correct however it is better to celebrate them once and appreciate them always than neither celebrating them.
I agree with A and D and let me explain why. Women's day will not make a difference in gender equality because people will still treat women how they treated women before women's day but also at the same time it is a good thing. It is a good thing because that shows people how powerful and impactful women actually are and that they can do what men do. Basically it's a 50/50 because it can be good or non impactful/ stay the same before.
I would agree with Point A because I think that International Woman's Day is to celebrate all the amazing things women had done all around the world. Although we don't value International as much as other countries do, I still think this day is really good for people to realize that women are also incredible. I also think that it will make people know how gender inequality might be an issue to some women.
I would disagree with Point C because I think that one day to celebrate all the women's achievement is not enough. I think one day would not make much of a difference to the gender inequality gap. People might think that women's achievements only deserved to be remembered on International Women's Day and then their achievement will be forgotten. But I don't think that women can only be remembered on International Women's Day. I think their achievement should be remembered throughout history.
I strongly agree with B because it says 'International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” In my opinion I think woman should have a whole month because if they have one day people would think woman have a day so they are not that important and the government will give them not as much rights as men. But If women had a whole month, not only will the government make woman's rights higher, people will think more about women. Lastly the opinion b has a spelling error that is, because.
I have my strong opinion towards option A
International women's day is the best moment for every single girl that struggled for getting her rights , sacrificed her choices for her family and faught for herself The international women's day doesn't only reminds the world that how incredible women are but even it tells about the extreme potienal that women own. I personally feel that woman's are those kind human beings who are filled with spirituality and humanity . In my nations many people recognise women as being a goddess a soul that is totally pure This day is made in the behalf of struggles that women's have to face at every stage of their life . I totally disagree with B . Though it is true that women's should be celebrated everyday but , International women's day is one remarkable and valueable day that makes everyone realise that women's are capable and deservable of each and every thing
I solemnly disagree with option B because this day is just to commemorate how great women are. I am not saying women are greater than men, but there are many different things one can do to raise awareness about gender inequality. One thing that I have done is participate in the International Women's Day "Walk in Her Shoes" event. This event is held every year in my town and is organized by the local women's aid charity. All participants are encouraged to walk a distance of ten thousand steps, as this is the average distance that women and children in developing countries have to walk to access vital things such as food and clean water. This event is a great way to raise awareness about the global issue of gender inequality, as well as raise money for persecuted and abused women and children. While at the event, I spoke to other participants about the reasons for us all being there and that an open and honest kind of conversation can really help educate and inform people. Another thing that has done to raise awareness about gender inequality is to campaign for gender focused and gender neutral policies at work and in the wider community. For example, as a recent part of a large campaign, everybody who works at the firm signed an online petition asking our local council to establish a women's 24-hour health clinic.
After three weeks, we met with the head policy maker and handed over the list of people who had supported the petition, which had over six thousand signatures. Creating and supporting of these kinds of campaigns can really help to make a change to improve the lives of women in the present and future. Nowadays, there are plenty of different ways to campaign and spread information about gender inequality. Social media networks such as Twitter and Facebook can be used to get people from all across the world involved and interested in campaigns and events. A popular form of campaign on social media is to use hashtags. For example, the hashtag "IWD 2016" was used nearly one million times in the run up to International Women's Day last year. This kind of campaign helps to create international dialogue and awareness about women's rights and gender inequality. Whether it is asking for donations, arranging local events or running national campaigns, anything that visibly shows individuals uniting to make a difference will raise awareness about gender inequality. By educating people about the different issues that women face and supporting humanitarian efforts to end years of oppression, true and lasting changes can be made.
The worldwide celebration of women's social, economic, cultural, and political accomplishments is known as International Women's Day. Additionally, the day serves as a call for immediate action to boost gender parity,Therefore, I concur with choice D and believe that gender inequality will significantly decrease in the wake of International Women's Day.
However, I disagree with option A. Honouring Women's Day will boost women's self-esteem and provide the impression that the battle against gender inequality is won, but in actuality, it has only just begun, we celebrate women's day to cherish all females and mothers, In my opinion, during these times it can help reduce abortion and etc...,Thank you!
Here is my multifaceted thought.
I agree with option A and partially with B because I see International women’s day, children’s day, book day etc. As special one off day, kind of like a birthday, you celebrate it and you go back to your go on with life feeling different or not, that is why I partially agree with B, however if women encourage and empower other young women then they too can grow to become just as impactful changing the course of the world and enforcing gender equality, also the international women’s day can be used as a day for awareness on issues related to gender inequality further giving women leverage in society this is why I also agree with option C.
Additionally, instead of celebrating women for one day how about a whole month? A month of awareness, reflection and empowerment. To truly make a change in the world.
What do you think?
I agree with Option A, “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” While I understand the idea behind option B, I think because we live in a male dominant world it is easy to sometimes forget how much women bring to the table as well. I am not undermining the work of either of the genders as both are equally deserving of recognition and praise but I do believe that many people tend to overlook women's struggle and their contribution to society. They are just as human as their male counterpart and they too deserve appreciation and love.
International Women's Day is a global celebration of women's achievements in politics, society, the economy, and culture. I agree with option C and think that after International Women's Day, there will be a major reduction in gender disparity because the day also calls for immediate action to promote gender parity.
I disagree with option A, though. We celebrate Women's Day to honour all women and mothers. In my opinion, it can help reduce abortion and other issues during these times. Thank you! Honouring Women's Day will empower women and give the impression that the fight against gender inequality has been won, but in reality, it is just beginning.
I fundamentally agree with all of them, in different ways…
Option A “International Woman’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” This will make people think how women were treated differently from history and still today but made many great achievements. This day brings confidence to women and makes them know they can do anything.
Option B “International Woman’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” Women and men should be treated the same, paid the same and not be dared to do something they don’t want to or not be able to do something they endeavoured to do. Women and men should both have opportunities and this is really unfair that this is only for one day, it should be every day because nobody gets to choose if they are a girl or boy. This reminds everyone to change this unfair rule and that International Woman’s Day should be everyday.
Option C “International Woman’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality.” International Woman’s Day is a great way to celebrate how much better women are being treated now but still needs developing. This day makes women feel loved and cared for because men bring flowers or do more house chores. This is a thoughtful, happy day and makes it way enjoyable and fair for women.
Option D “International Woman’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality.” This Day won’t change how women are being treated because it is only for one day. As many people think women are meant to be slaves and clean the house, cook and look after children but many girls don’t want to do this, they want to earn money and have a job they really love.
I mainly agree with Option A because it is a celebration to see how far we have progressed and mainly disagree with Option D because everything we do will help.
Thank you and have a good day❤️
I agree with A. International Women's Day (IWD) is a really important and impactful day that is celebrated all around the world for many reasons. It's a day where we recognize and celebrate the amazing things that women have achieved.
We take this day to acknowledge the accomplishments of women in different fields like science, politics, business, arts, sports, and social activism. We look back at the incredible things women have done throughout history and also the things they are doing right now in our society.
IWD also helps us understand that there is still inequality and discrimination against women in many parts of the world. It reminds us that women deserve equal rights, opportunities, and representation in every aspect of life. We need to challenge the stereotypes and biases that hold women back and limit their potential.
On this day, we also want to inspire and empower women and girls to follow their dreams and overcome any obstacles they may face. We celebrate their strength, resilience, and determination in the face of challenges. We want them to be confident, assertive, and believe in themselves.
Lastly, IWD brings women and their allies together from all over the world. It helps create a sense of unity and solidarity among women. No matter our culture, background, or age, we come together to support and uplift each other. Together, we have a strong voice that fights for gender equality and women's rights.
Hi there, I think personally that international woman's day won't make a difference because it is only ONE day; some-one at my school said that there parents have the same job but yet get paid so different. Even though I am a female I believe that this is not going to work because if your trying so hard to just get no-were. I love that women get appreciated on this day. Also to remember the great things woman have achieved like Rosa Parks, Ada Lovelace and Nancy Wake the list just goes on. Women should get the same amount of justice as men. Thank you all so much for reading my comment we can all try our best to make a change and I have been told that to "try your best and that is all you can offer." Thanks for having me bye.
I must say that I do not agree with any of the above opinions.
I mean, everyone is right, but I prefer to think there is another option. To be more exact, when is International Men's Day? Or does it even exist? Actually yes, on November 19, but most people don't know it, unlike Women's Day. My point is that if Women's Day is widely known and Men's Day is not, little boys may think that women are somehow superior and that will only cause the process to start over, but instead of being the superior men, women will be.
I don't mean that we should eradicate women's day but rather make men's day known.
Before you say anything, I am completely against gender inequality, I'm just saying that the two days are as well known as the genders should be.
In my opinion I agree with option b that states that International Women’s Day isn’t good as it implies women are only celebrated and recognised for that one day. Through discussions about this topic in class one international women’s day the coverage of women in the media especially on news headlines spikes to 3% which is around about 2.5% more than a general day. This shows how that one day brings attention to women but once it is over the hype of the women on that day dies down as it’s a normal day again. Every person should be celebrated every day no matter what as I don’t see why a specific group has to have a day or a time period dedicated to them to be recognised.
I strongly disagree with option c that states that International Women’s Day will make a big difference for gender inequality. As stated above the one day brings attention to women and has more news stories and coverage over the media spreading the word about the specific day but once it is over the world is back to normal and the media returns to its usual stories. A big difference can only be made if protests or specific movements are put in place but there is no way a single day can change anything.
In my opinion, I agree with A "International Women´s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are" because I think that in this day women are remembered and I think that it is very important for making conscious that women are great people as they give life to thousands of children and they also help us in our daily life. I think this is an important day in which women can express what they think and that makes this day one of the most important ones. Continuing, I disagree with B "International Women’s Day isn’t good beause it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day" because this day is to express all women feelings and what women think about all about gender inequality and so on, so I think that what this sentence is really saying is that women only have this day for being celebrated, and is not correct because women want this to express themselves. Finally, I am going to respond to D "International Women’s Day will not make much of a difference for gender inequality" by saying that I think that this day can make a change in gender inequality, but I also think that it is not only this day, everyday we can do something for reducing it, which could be a great step.
I concur with viewpoint C,because, celebrating Women's Day has a big impact since it encourages kids to cherish their moms more on this special day by reminding them of the important role moms play in their lives. In addition, written and electronic media both praise and highlight the contributions made by women in a variety of organisations. This makes their accomplishments more visible and encourages others to strive for the same high calibre of work.
I agree with the option A because it indicates the fact that women deserve to be celebrated since they have done a lot of things which helped and continue helping the society to be more and more developed.We have to recognise that women have done great investments and improvements at a variety of realms such as education,economy and politics.This day also reminds to people the fact that except for men, women have also contributed to the world’s evolution and that is a stereotype which a lot of prejudged people adopt.
I go with a because international women day does remind us of the incredible things that women have done. During valentine day most people celebrate it by either talking to people they never talked to or helping people they not helped in a while and so on but during this same valentine day people sometimes change their mind about people after getting to know them same way the international women day helps to make men change their character towards omen and I think that is why it was created.
THANK YOU🙏.
I agree with option A.
Because women’s day is a very important day to remember how important womens are in the world, because probably if womens desapeared, the world would extinguish, but I also think that mens could have a day for them because they are also important in the society, but some of them, not everyone, put women under them, and that’s not fair, for example, in football, they normally criticize women because football is only for men, and that’s not true, because they are lots of womens that likes football and lots of boys that likes playing with dolls.
Nive morning to all,
The International Women day is coming nearer and this is the special day for women.
According to the given four points I agree with opinion A because this is the day when womens think themselves proud to be the women. This day is celebrated all over the world. This day is celebrated after World War Two where womens of different countries had served the country by various ways. I think that this day is incredible because it is the day of women when they are said to fo equal effort as men. So, I agree with opinion A.
And about the opinion I dis-agree is opinion C because women day is celebrated to show that women are equal as men but not to show that it brings gender inequality. In my opinion, mostly men are always doings work to affort families needs but this day suggest that women are also responsible to fulfill the needs of families.
Thank you.
In my opinion, I would choose option D because some men might think that women are the only ones who deserve to have a day dedicated to them. Although in the past, women were not allowed to have an education or even leave their homes, the times have changed. Nowadays, women are given priority in various aspects such as jobs and education. In my state, there are many schemes available for women, such as monthly financial assistance of Rs. 1000, free bus and train rides, separate train compartments for women, and even financial assistance for their marriage. By doing these things, men might start to feel like they don't deserve the same treatment. Therefore, it creates gender inequality for men as well. In conclusion, if they are going to celebrate a day for women, they should also celebrate a day for men.
Hi giving_seagull, I really like how you used real examples from your state about the schemes they have put in place for women, and you bring up a very important point about how it can make men feel. Why do you think your state put these schemes in place for women?
In my opinion, the reason why the state has implemented schemes for women is because historically, women were not given the same opportunities as men. They were not allowed to receive an education and were only expected to do household work. As a result, many women lacked confidence and stayed within their traditional roles for many years. To encourage women to participate in society and to give them equal rights, the government began introducing schemes for women. This allowed many women to participate in activities such as jobs and education. Many people, including poet and freedom fighter Mahakavi Bharathiyar, have fought for gender equality. Bharathiyar wrote many songs and poems about this issue, and other activists like Thanthai Periyar and Muthu Lakshmi Reddy have also worked hard to promote gender equality.
I agree with B. International Women's Day is great but i feel it can make people think that women should only be celebrated for one day which isn't true because if there is only one day to celebrate women. Women should be celebrated every day. If there is only one day for women, does that mean every other day is to celebrate and praise men? Personally I think it is useful to keep the day to remember the history of injustice but unfair as it inadvertently sends out the message that only one day is enough to celebrate the achievements of women.
I think international women's day is good because it is a day to remember what women have achieved and what they have done to help the world.
I agree with both option A and D. I agree with A because it reminds the world of the many amazing things that women have accomplished and how far they have come. I also agree with option D because after International Women's Day, no one ever mentions how much women do. They only get appreciated for that one day. I don't think it makes that big of a difference on gender inequality.
I agree with option B as celebrating International Women's Day is saying that women should only be celebrated for 1 day when they should be celebrated and appreciated every day. However, This doesn't show the history where women were seen as inferior. I disagree with option A as International Women's Day won't make much of an impact towards gender equality.
I agree with opinion A, international women's day should be all about woman and that day is to remember all the stuff women have done .it reminds the world how great women are and it is a day to celebrate all the good things women have done in our social ,economic life.
I highly disagree with opinion c , just because its international women's day doesn't mean that it will make a big difference for gender inequality because it will take a lot of people for everyone to be equal for example a lot of men think they are so much better than women another example a lot of women at work get paid so much less than men do even though they work at the same job even in the past woman had less education than men because they were known by staying at home doing the dishes for example . I think i have made my point about this argument
Thank you.
I agree with B and D because women’s day shouldn’t be for just one day because all the other days will be like men’s day. If it is for only for one day, one day isn’t going to persuade others to respect women will it?
I agree with Opinion D because when we talk about gender inequality, we don't just mean that women are not being given opportunities, it also means that we are favored more than men and it a lot of cases that is so, women are seen as soft and vulnerable and I don't think that having a day to celebrate being a woman would help. I really think that women's day is unimportant especially since women still have a long way to go until we are taken seriously, and although we have come far and be commended for that, I don't think that we deviate from the task at hand, I really feel that it is also unfair to the men and boys because they have also done a lot and they are not being celebrated like how women are being celebrated and I think that this is an even clearer example of the gender equality because, if women want to be treated the same as men, then there shouldn't be international women's day at all. At he end of the day, I think it all depends on hw you choose to look at it. Thank you.
On my opinion I think that is this os a controvelsial and delicated topic to talk about It, to have a day for women but to have a day for this does not means that women are only important that day or ara equal as men that day is more important to "fight"for women rights everiday, but note to have more special days because same men maybe would be hungry or reclamate also more days for them well I think is more important to work everyday an everyone together for get the equality while are in same things that they have greatfull results. Also is very important that old people participate as mainly they are the ones that has less resources for taking part in this as they have healthy problems or of other kind, is important too yo make sure that the little children that are growimc nas concienciate and learn that meaybe we can have batter things one than others but everyone need to have the same rights as you does not matter how that person is, and that we need to work in society allí together to progres.
I cannot choose only one option because what I think that is the correct one is a little summary of options A and B. I mean, the International Women’s Day is good because we celebrate how much importance have women in our lives like the option A, but I don't think that we only have to celebrate it one day, because women deserve more than one day like option B. Women are important in our lives because they are the ones that have given birth to all of us, they are the ones that take care of us, they are our mothers, our grandmothers, our sisters...
Therefore, we should appreciate them because women are worth a lot and they deserve it for all those injustices they had live over all this years.
I personally agree with comment A. Women are being discriminated and limited on their abilities every single day. All the time. So often that it has gotten normal for many people and even these women have accepted it, since they’re used to it. So why not have a day on which we remind every single woman that their existence is a beautiful thing? We would be reminding them that they shouldn’t accept the mistreatment just because theyve gotten used to it.
However, on the other hand I have to disagree with comment C. International woman’s day would make a difference for women’s feeling of self worth and maybe help them to work on themselves when it comes to being a woman under these circumstances, but it won’t change the general view on women and gender equality.
Hi, i am from Pakistan, I agree with A. When me and my sister talk about our aims she is inspirated by a female fighter pilot from Pakistan airforce ( Marium Mukhtar) and always wants to become like that. Luckily we have discussion about role of women in society she debated with me on MArium Mukhtar was an example for young girls that motivated many others. so my point of view is that we must celebarte international womens day in order acknowledge their sacrifices as well astheir achievemnt. Which is a great source of inspiration for any sosciety.
I totally agree with the first sentence. Women have made great achievements throughout history, but unfotunately their work wasn't always recognised because they weren't men. I think it's great to have International Women's Day and it's should be a reminder to everyone that women have to keep going with their work and indenpendence.
I also agree with B sentence, because it's not enough to have only one day where we're celebrating women and their achievements. I think every day should be dedicated to women, but of course that doesn't mean that we don't need to respect men. It should be a way to make everyone equal and that's how we can change something.
I agree with opinion "A"= “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.”, the reason I agree with this opinion is because most days and holidays are typically recognized from the excitement of being able to be involved. Woman can feel empowerment aswell.
I agree with B because I believe and think that women should be appreciated every day, not just one day a year. We need to give them much more attention because without these women we wouldn't exist either.
I agree with A because I think women are very special in the world because they are just amazing in every way. For me, women are the most caring and beautiful beings.
I am of the opinion that having Women's Day is neither good or bad, but I do believe that women should be treated as equals of men and they must be given independence, freedom and respect each and every day of the year.
I would agree with D) statement,because women's day it's once a year and women's are receiving different gifts and things that just make their day.But the issue of gender equality is much more complicated and one day a year will not help women to have better position in society and show how powerful and incredible they really are!
I agree with A that International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” I agree because people can learn a lot from women in ways they never know. Those famous women can provide encouragement for people in the world because they have already shown that anything is possible no matter what gender you are. They can also be used in projects for educational reasons and they can also start a new trend in the world that can last for years. Overall, the main message is International Woman's Day is good because they can help other people in multiple types of ways.
I agree with opinion A because we really should be reminded how incredible women and their achivements are. This brings us to opinion B which I also agree with and we should know that women deserve to be celebrated for every thing they’ve done every day and not just on Internationals Women’s day. Women bring life to this earth and without them we wouldn’t be here either.
I really think that opinion D is right. On this day everyone says gender inequality doesn’t exist anymore but we all actually know that there are so many countries where women are treated the way no one should be. Even in some more developed countries there is some gender inequality especially when it comes to jobs and working where women are considered to be “less smart” and “weaker” than man which results in women not getting hired or being paid less than man for the same exact job.
I agree with option A. We all know that women were really neglected and without any human rights in the past, and today we already see huge progress that deserves its day, but the past should teach us that such bad things should not be repeated. Women are strong and capable and have proven it countless times to everyone who doesn't believe in it, and with their activism and persistence they have earned a better life and conditions. This day should be celebrated because this is a wonderful way to remind that women have won importance and praise together, also this should motivate others to find effective solutions for current problems and rights. On March 8, every woman should be proud and encouraged because every day she fights hard and successfully in this cruel world and achieves great results in all areas of human science.
I agree with Option A!
Today is March 8th, 2024, and it is International Women's Day - a day to celebrate the achievements of women and advocate for gender equality. International Women's Day was first celebrated in 1911 AD. It had been started annually celebrating on March 8th, 1913. The idea for International Women's Day came from Clara Zetkin, the leader of the Women's Office for the Social Democratic Party in Germany. Today we should all celebrate International Women's Day. Today has also been 111 Years Since International Women's Day has been celebrated annually.
I am from pakistan and I strongly believe in OpinionnA also i am very much excited because in our school we have celebrated International womens day and students delivered speeches on Different personalities (Heroes) to acknowledged . I am so much inspired by Mother of the Nation (Fatima Jinnah) who faught Bravely with Dictatotor Ayub khan and loss elections against him due to righing.She is my superhero.so i want to tribute her on this day because she was symbol of democracy.
I stand with option A because I am sportman and i play cricket with my sister.she has dreams to reprent palkstan but our society donot allow women to take part in such activities. So i want to pay tribute to Our Ex palistan woem team captian an all Allrounder for her services to our country and pay big tribute because i can understand how much hurdles she face in her entire career. But at the same time i am very much happy that she was source of inspiration for many girls that they can do inspite of hurdles. So big tribute to my bisma maroof on International womens Day.
I agree with A. The International Women's Day is an important occasion to celebrate women's achievements, raise awareness about existing inequalities, and advocate for gender equality. Among its advantages are promoting awareness of women's rights, fostering solidarity among women, and providing a platform to address pressing issues such as wage disparity and gender discrimination.
But the other theses are also correct in my opinion. I also agree with number B. International Women's Day can also be criticized as sometimes being seen as a mere symbolic gesture that doesn't bring about concrete changes. Some argue that a single day isn't sufficient to combat deeply rooted structural inequalities and that long-term political and social measures are necessary to effect real change.
Overall, International Women's Day offers a platform for crucial discussions and actions, but it's crucial that it's not viewed as a one-off event but rather as part of an ongoing commitment to gender equality.
International Women's Day is a vital reminder of the ongoing fight for gender equality and the celebration of women's achievements worldwide. It serves as a platform to raise awareness about issues like gender discrimination, violence against women, and the need for equal opportunities. While the day itself is positive in its intentions, it also highlights the persistent challenges women face globally. Therefore, it's not about whether International Women's Day is good or bad, but rather about recognizing its significance in advancing gender equality and fostering positive change.
I strongly agree with C because gender inequality is a big issue that needs to be tackled, I personally think that no gender is better than the other. I believe that it isn't fair for women to be mistreated by men because of what they want to do or what they are already doing, International Women's Day is a time for people to understand that genders should not be fighting over who is better because in the end, they are not better than each other. In conclusion, I believe that International Women's Day is a great time to realise that both genders should be able to respect each other and live in peace with each other.
Thank you consistent_juniper! I would be interest to hear more about what can be done on International Women's Day to get both genders to respect each other
my opinion of International Women’s Day is good since you can see the importance of womens day but i do think there should be a day about men but in international women's days you only celebrate women and that's it you don't do anything important like celebrating important things that women have done
Hi secure_kiwifruit, I like your point about celebrating what women have done! Do you have any examples of these important things that you could share?
my opinion of International Women’s Day is good since you can see the importance of womens day but i do think there should be a day about men but in international women's days you only celebrate women and that's it you don't do anything important like celebrating important things that women have done
Hi secure_kiwifruit, I like your point about celebrating what women have done! Do you have any examples of these important things that you could share?
I agree with B, because I think everyday should be the women's day, not only one out of 365 days.
I think nowadays there are a lot of people who support gender inequality and transmit it to their kids, which are the future generation, so I think that if there was a protest or something like that several days in a year instead of only one, women would be consider as equal as men.
We cannot forget that we exist thanks to women.
I disagree with D because if there was no women's day no one will take into account or no one would be worried about all the unfair things that occur everyday to woman that does not occur to men. One example is the salary; women are paid less than men in many countries only because they are women, which I think does not make a lot of sense.
With this comment I'm not stating that women are better than men or things like that, I'm only saying that both of them are equal so they should be treated the same.
I agree with point A. Women's day is here to remind us, that woman are incredible. But not just that, it's also to remind us of women's contributions to society, which throughout history was forgoten or more often ignored. So this day serves as celebration to those women of past, whose works and discoveries were frowned upon and stolen from them by man. And to women of present, whose contribution to society is often overlooked.
Greetings,
If we look and understand from everyone's point of view,all of these opinions seem correct. I personally agree with option A. It is because it reminds women and the world about the contribution women have done for the betterment of this society. It also helps to boost up the confidence and motivation in women and make them make a contribution for the country. It is a good and important day as it makes people realize how each member of the world including women have contributed something. I think that it will make a great difference in the gender inequality as it reminds them of their worth and value.
Thanks
International Women's Day is very significant in terms of Bangladesh and the world. Because various struggles and movements have been organized to establish women's rights in view of Women's Day. As the women's movement played a vocal and effective role in establishing women's rights, various women's laws were enacted. United Nations CEDAW charter, Beijing plan, National women's policy etc have been adopted in the context of International Women's Day. It is my hope that , the spirit of Women's Day will be play a significant role in the provision of Women's safety in the labor law , dowry system, prevention of rape and women abuse etc.
I agree with option B, according to teaching of Islam. We muslims respect our women every time every minute 1400 years ago. So this is injustice with womens to celebrate their day for just once in a year. I met with one of my cousin who told me the inspirational story of Beenish saeed who won best Principal Award in Asia. Such inspiration for teachers encourge them to work politely.
I agree with "B" . On this platform atleast we can remember our heros and also their achievmnt in the past. As well as we trasnform history super heroes like Begum RAANA Liaqat Ali Khan who was first Pakistani Diplomat and beloved women Right Activist to our younger generation. I think this is a platform for whole world to remenber the contribution of their heroes on this special day.
I strogly Agree with option "D". I dont think person who worked hard and succeded will be acknowledged everywhere in the world whether he is male or female.Today is Women international day so i celebrate this day by dedidationg to "Mother of Pakistan" Bilqees edhi" who also won the second highest award which is Hilal e Pakistan for her services to mankind. She also laid foundation to Edhi ambulance network in all over Pakistan.
I agree with option A. Because we realise the women strength to them on this day and this day gives more courage and hope to women that they can do what they want. I have three sisters and my mother and sisters celebrate this day every year. They said this day is for us and we will do all those things what they want to do. And the funny thing is my mom didn't cook anything that day but my father do not say anything and quietly order some food for all of us and we celebrate this day with fun.
Each year we celebrate this day with love and care for our family women's but it's tells us that all the women of our society have need the same respect and care.
I agree with a .It helps recognize women and their accomplishments all around thee world.women like mothers or single mothers are someone who can some great recognition because they take care of their children and do whatever needs be for them and their kid or kid.It can also allow the child to see how awesome theIR mother is and one day hope to be has strong and respectful as their mother.
I agree with B. Women deserve much more than one day in a whole year. They aren't only our mothers, sisters od grandmas, they are important people in our lives who deserve attention every time we can give it to them, not only on the 8th of March.
I agree with A,women´s day is just a remember of how powerfull women are and we are still fighting for equality,and to show we are still here.
It´s not a big change,thats why I not agree with B,a day dedicated to woman doesn´t make all problems stop,it´s just make people talk about it ,and people who thinks we live on the 60s comunicate their hate of women actually treated like a human being,their ideas would not change in 24 hours.
That´s why we don´t fight only for one day,we do it everyday and we have doing for thousands of years until this long and difficult journey finally arrives to equality.
I picked option A. In my opinion, it often is forgotten about the role women play in society. Being often regarded as the ``weaker`` gender makes women feel less accepted in socitey than men. Women always were supressed and had less opportunites than men, always had to follow the rules society set up for them: having children and generally be a classic stay at home mum. This is not being regarded as something challenging in society, even though it is really tough. And women can do so much more than that.Just look at Marie Curie and what she has achieved in science! International Women´s Day is so important since it`s a way to thank women for their daily efforts and their achievements in many fields. Option C I also consider to be quite right since celebrating women also includes regarding their ability to achieve great things regardless their gender. Men and women are equal and should both be treated that way. The 8th of March is a symbol for that. In the end, every human being deserves to be respected and celebrated.
I agree with opinion A because International Women's Day gives the opportunity to women to show how powerful they are and how many things they can do to change the actual situation of gender inequality. I believe that if this day didn't exist, gender inequality would be worst than it is now, and women would be very diminished in society, as they wouldn't have an opportunity to show their real value and to fight for their rights.
I agree with C , as I think that this is a day to mark the evolution of women through years, I do not consider this day as only a day to mark this because we are continuously making differences, but also to make people see that women are not going to stop untill equallity has been acheived. Is true that this day is only focused on inequallity and I know not everyone agrees about this day because of different reasons but this day have not been created because of fun , this day has been created because is a necessity, some women may think that is ridiculous to have a day to mark inequallity when it is continuously seen by people, but if this day is necessary is because eventhough the majority of people is concerned about it, it stills happening all around the world and people do not try to do anything to stop it. I know we cannot do too much , but every little action will help.
To sum up, I think this day is one of the most important days through the whole year as thank´s to it inequallity is reducing little by little each year, eventhough is not sometimes noticeable.
I largely agree with statement D, because a single day will not make a big difference, but it will take years of education and restructuring until the unjust structures can be overcome.
I do not agree with statement C for the reasons mentioned above, as a single day will not bring about a huge change.
I would like to comment on statement B, as I think that Women's Day is more likely to draw attention to injustices and also ensures the visibility of millions of women who are mistreated on a daily basis.
All in all, you can say that one day is never enough for big changes, but that women and men have to fight for equality every day anew.
I agree with option B the most because national women's day has been acknowledged more often through the recent years, and many people are assuming that we only need to celebrate women for one day, in which we need to celebrate them year round, like men. I disagree with c because in my country America, there has not much been done to improve gender inequality in the recent years, mostly in the 2000's, despite the countless amount of national women's days. And for that reason, I think that c will not be very true, if at all.
I agree with A because it show us how useful women are but it should be celebrated everyday
Women's Day is a special day for women. It's importance is unmatched for women. It gives inspiration and courage to women to protest against injustice and strive for their rights. International Women's Day is celebrated every year and it holds unparalleled importance. Not observing it means disenfranchising women. It takes no bad day. Workers' Day is celebrated to respect the workers and their rights, just as Women's Day is celebrated to respect and honor their rights.
Option A is the best because Women are expected to do a multitude of tasks such as nursing people and helping during the war. Men are shown as the heroes of the war but women kept the city together. Men were always seen as the bigger more important people and women were not allowed to express themselves such as voting , being in the army and electing themselves as president. Women worked in factories that made uniforms, ammunition and bombs. Women deserve to be respected and noticed for their hard labour throughout the year.
I think that option A is the best because women have to do a lot of jobs such as:
Provide the food.
They have helped soldiers in the war.
look after the house and children.
This is why I think this day is great because it shows people how hard women work and how different and hard the world would be without them. Men were shown as the heroes but they were not the real heroes the women had used to work in factory and provide for the men if they had to go and fight in the war so without the women the men could not of fought.
What do you think makes someone a "real hero"? Would everyone say the same thing?
I think option B because people will make the most of the fact that there is only one day registered for women
I agree with opinion A because many women over the years have contributed to the world in many various ways. I disagree with opinion C because even though some people celebrate national women's day, other people still don't believe in gender equality. I will respond to opinion D with the fact that I stated before. This is because still some people think that men are above women and also think that women haven't contributed as much as men did.
I agree with A because women are barely celebrated so if just a day is set aside for them, they will appreciate it and male them feel special and incredible. However, I disagree with D because this will make a change to gender inequality because it will make women feel proud and also not underestimated because although men are known as the best, at least they have been appreciated in a particular field.
Thank you!
International Women's Day is great because it reminds the world how incredible women are. Women have fought for centuries for their rights and equality. The reason for International Women's Day is because woman have came a long way to have what they have now. I think that it is amazing how the Government noticed that.
I agree with both opinion A and B because I think that women should feel special and appreciated for all the great things they bring into our world but it's also very sad that we remeber about those things for just one day in year.
I agree with option A because men are thinking that women are not skillful when it comes to a lot of matters. Women are very talented. To be sincered about my statement, every single human was born from a woman
By overcoming this fear, some women are inspiring to the world. They are managing countries, cities, institutions, armed forces in various fields. Along with men, women are proving their mettle
In all wars of the world, women gave their lives, gave their honor, gave their husbands and children. They are sometimes a mother, daughter or wife in life. They have no specific address, sometimes father's house, sometimes husband's house, some son's or daughter's house.
Rebel poet Kazi Nazrul said:
"All things eternally created on earth are of great good,
Half of it is done by women, half by men। So i think women day is symbol of nation or women life
In my opinion, I agree with option B because, every year, on Friday the 8th of March, everyone celebrates women's rights and what women have achieved pass the years, when they were never aloud to do certain opportunities as men did. But, International Women's Day, only happens once a year. What is that? I mean everyday should be like International Women's and Men's Day, but instead, everyday is only like International Men's Day! Women used to be treated like slaves and treated with no respect. Women, first didn't have any power and rights in the 1800s but, the year where ,slowly, their amount of power and rights , started to increase, was in 1979. Can you imagine, for 179 years, women were left to admire their dreams and men got to actually preform and live their dreams? It's like women, have spent their lives, in a cage!
I disagree with option D. I think that International Women's Day, will make a difference for gender inequality because women used to be remembered for being delicate and fragile. But, if there is a day where everyone celebrates women, well that will be very good. It will be fair! I mean, it shows that women are very essential in this world as they can do numerous helpful things, that can improve the way we live, use technology, multiple things!
However, how much women referees do you see when there is a football match? For me none! How much women presidents do you see? For me none! I mean, still, women do not get that much opportunities as men but things are getting better! Anyway, thanks for reading this comment!
I personally like A and I also agree with it. International women‘s day is a day about women. It’s about appreciating women. I like the idea. Although I don’t favor men asking for an „international men‘s day“ because they totally miss the actual point of the day.
I believe International Women's Day serves as a powerful reminder of the incredible contributions and achievements of women globally. It's a moment to celebrate their strength, resilience, and accomplishments in all spheres of life. However, it's crucial to remember that celebrating women's greatness shouldn't be confined to just one day; it should be a continuous effort every day to promote gender equality and empower women in all aspects of society.
Good day to all topical talkers !!
In my opinion , I agree with option A which states - “International Women’s Day is great because it reminds the world about how incredible women are.” because international women's day is a very great and good way to make the women's proud and celebrate their achievements.
I disagree with option B that states - “International Women’s Day isn’t good because it makes the world think that women only deserve to be celebrated for one day.” because this day serves as a reminder of the struggle of gender inequality which is still going on and it also gives confidence to women's to celebrate their achievements beyond just one day.
I would like to respond to option D.We all can understand, that this day cannot resolve the issue of gender inequality by it own , but it can empower woman , spread awareness of the issues and lead to several discussions that can also have a positive impact over time.
Thank you !
Opinion A: Agree
I agree with opinion A because International Women's Day provides a dedicated platform to acknowledge and celebrate the remarkable contributions of women in various fields. It serves as a reminder to appreciate their efforts, often overlooked in history, and inspires future generations of women to pursue their dreams.
Opinion B: Disagree
I disagree with opinion B because while International Women's Day is indeed just one day, it does not imply that women should only be celebrated on this particular day. Instead, it encourages people to be more mindful of gender equality issues and extend the celebration and support of women throughout the year.
Opinion C: Respond
While I understand the sentiment behind opinion C, I believe that International Women's Day alone cannot entirely address gender inequality. However, it plays a vital role in raising awareness and sparking conversations around the topic. It is essential to combine the spirit of this day with sustained efforts and actions promoting equality in all aspects of life to achieve lasting change.
