The sad thing is, you are so right Twinkle.
Where I live, it is not celebrated, and even barely mentioned. This has been the same for years. Only some ritualistic mentioning by the bosses of the trade-unions. Wish it were otherwise.
If I remember correctly, the event that led to International Women's Day happened in the US. I thought it was a fire, in a factory where only women worked. A lot of these women died, in a fire.
Have a great day, all of you!
