INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY 8 MARCH 2022

But surely Adam cannot be excused,

Her fault though great, yet he was most to blame;

What Weakness offered, Strength might have refused,

Being Lord of all, the greater was his shame: 

Although the Serpent’s craft had her abused,

God’s holy word ought all his actions frame,

    For he was Lord and King of all the earth,

    Before poore Eve had either life or breath

Eve’s Apology in Defense of Women   Amelia Lanyer 1611  

What does International Women’s Day mean to you?

Growing up in a Polish household, it has always been something we celebrate every year. …It is a day to celebrate our strengths, our dreams and our abilities. R (20s):

It seems very bizarre to me that more than half the population has one day allotted to it. It’s kind of nonsense. J (70s)

Definitely excitement. It’s really exciting to have a day to celebrate women, but it’s like, I think women should be celebrated all the time. L(19)
