Happy International Women’s Day – Cupcake challenge

http://wifeincaptivity.wordpress.com/2010/03/07/805/

Now, I am pretty sure that women victimized by trafficking or genital mutilation use little time thinking about cupcakes. Further I would suggest that women who are digitizing thoughts about cupcakes spend an equally small amount of time thinking about

Survival of the Unlovely

http://www.askcherlock.com/

“Survival of the fittest,” my mother used to say to me and I am quite certain she did not see me as being fit. This is just one of the millions of survival stories out there. Self-awareness, and ridding one’s self of self-loathing can be done. For m

http://www.travelgalicia.blogspot.com/2009/03/international-womens-day…

The International Women’s Day still has a political context in some countries, but in Ukraine this holiday lost its political flavor many years ago. Now it is holiday of men’s expression of their love and respect to the women of all ages.

Feminism?!

Time n again i wonder about the incongruity of the above coinage.. Is women's claim to equlaity causing a too much debacle?? I guess so.. Even the well-paced 21st century not coping up with this is an irony - wherein we come across waves of trans-gender n

  • International Women's Day

    http://www.internationalwomens…

    IWD is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future.

    Started as a political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries (primarily Russia and the countries of former Soviet bloc). In some celebrations, the day lost its political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love to the women around them in a way somewhat similar to Mother's Day and St Valentine's Day mixed together. In others, however, the political and human rights theme as designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner. The IWD is also celebrated as the first spring holiday, as in the listed countries the first day of March is considered the first day of the spring season.
