This year, International Women’s Day has perhaps never had more relevance.
Hong Kong Beat expressing support for all women resisting and speaking out against harassment, abuse, neglect, discrimination.
Come on guys, if somebody treated you the way some men treat women, you’d floor them.
Show respect.
James Brown sang “it is a man’s world”, asserting things like ‘man made the car, the train, electric light, the boat, the ark’…
Unfortunately some men stop thinking at that point, as proof of their supremacy, but James went on to say “it would be nothing, nothing, not one little thing, without a women or a girl.”
He was right, but only to a degree, because, without a woman, none of us would be here. Period.
Men, this is the 21st century. It really is time for us to cherish and respect womankind as an equal.
Wishing all women a happy and hopefully fulfilling International Women’s Day and, although I know there are many parts of the World where this means nothing at all, just wishing that at least one more man will find enlightenment towards our better half.
