Women's History Month

Thanks, Walter.

Walter- I don't want to rain on your parade, but I take umbrage at "Women's History Month". I think that the appellation and the event only serves to illustrate that women still have a second class status.

Can you imagine something being called, "Men's History Month?"

Certainly - but cui bono?

We don't have history months here, but certainly 'history' reminders on various objects, dates and persons.

Thus, I understand a 'history month' is just focussing the interest on something special.

From the Australian History Month website:

As an aside:

this March is Irish-American Heritage Month as well :wink:

Phoenix--

I've become accustomed to the plethora of Special Days and Dedicated Weeks and Themed Months.....

As for A March through 30 Days of Woman's History, you and I have lived women's history. We embody Women's History. Still, Women's History (and thousands of other focused glimpses of the past) are blank pages to men and women who have never been exposed to the information.

Personally, I'd rather eliminate National Bungee Jumping Day--or eliminate Bungees for sections of the population, but let them jump anyway.

Hey, Walter and all. March 4th is Command Day everywhere.

Well, and March 8, International Women's Day!

Walter, that was a joke. March forth--March 4th--Command Day--geddit?

Now ... I'd thought of something organized by the Homeland .......

Maybe we ought to create a thread called International A2K Day...

There's Noddy and Phoenix and Letty, of course.
And Walter will bring up the rear on his horse.
