So every year it comes and goes. Many men on social media get a chance to virtue signal about how they appreciate women and to make demands, often unreasonable, about how women should be given "more" in the workplace. This usually elicits kudos and appreciation from the women on Linkedin. Then the women start complaining about how hard their lives are, how they want "a seat at the high table" and how how the paygap is unreasonable, how they should lose out on promotions and raises for having kids "while men don't have to". What they seem to forget it is that at the end of the day, companies are there to make money. Hiring a women who is pregnant and will be gone for a few months to a year does not help the business.

Companies also love this day, they always post warm and fuzzy stuff about how much women contribute and pledge to "do more".

Now my question is, in the last 20 years, what really has changed for women. I am not going back too far, just 20 years. Are those changes fair? good? Sustainable?

What more needs to be done for women that is fair and reasonable?

The best thing women can do for women's rights is to stop voting for democrats who can't even tell you the difference between a man and a woman now.

Buncha misogynists running around here.

5-10 years ago, companies and "feminist men" would make posts on Linkedin and other SM about how they supported women, and they would get claps. That was enough.

These days I see more women openly telling companies and these kinds of men that it was time to show what they had actually done. This is a welcome step - put your money where your mouth is.

What do you think about situations where a pregnant woman is looking for a job? She may not be showing but she knows she will be off work after maybe 7 months. This would cause problems to some companies. Should she declare her pregnancy or is this none of the company's business? If they find out and it causes disruption, they may just fire her, is that an acceptable solution?

kind of feels like this day may have lost a little
luster in a day and age when men can have babies.

X is flooded with posts about transwomen being real women and standing in solidarity against the cis male patriarchy.

I get the snark of the tweet but dear lord that pic makes me both incredibly sad and angry

It looks like they intentionally cut her Achilles tendon, I assume to hobble her. I hope someone in the IDF incinerated that 5th century piece of filth.

I have been told there is no such thing as women. That it's a sociological construct

Or at the very least that they are just as strong and capable and the same as men.

So why would we set aside a day to celebrate something that doesn't exist except in our minds?

That is how I celebrated today.
