Once the women simply knocked out a holiday from the men. History is replete with facts about their exploits on this day. The noisy start was laid by the “March of Empty Pots”, which was staged by New York textile workers in the mid-19th century.
And then three more strikes three years in a row with one demand – “Equality”! The result was March 8, International Women’s Day, first proposed by Clara Zetkin.
Men often perceive this date as an occasion to show their respect to the “weaker” sex, once again show tender feelings, take on some of the household chores.
Ladies, as a rule, putting aside the pots that have played their role, prefer to enjoy the attention and care-free spring day. Employees of institutions and enterprises for one day become two groups – gallant attentive gentlemen and beautiful ladies.
The holiday coincided with the beginning of spring. The first flowers blooming – tulips, mimosa – make March 8 a blooming, fragrant day. Perfume and jewelry are considered traditional gifts for beloved women, while flowers are a must!
On behalf of our entire editorial staff, dear women, we congratulate you on the wonderful holiday of female beauty and charm, on the holiday of spring inspiration and bright joy. On March 8, we sincerely wish you a constant feeling of happiness, daily fun of the soul, magical feelings of love and tenderness, a good mood and an invincible interest in everything new in life.
And in conclusion, a short video about the flash mob held on March 8 by Studio 2510 in the central square of Greece, Syntagma. And let this day remain in our memory not as another day of the war, but as a holiday.
