    I feel like days out of the year used to celebrate any part of history are pretty stupud. If that's the case we should celebrate every day of the year because if you go back in history there's always something significant that happened every day of the year. We should have a Nikola Tesla day... the day when alternating current was invented. Or any significant invention day. We should have a remembrance day for every war that's happened in the past in the area. But people only choose to have a day for the first world war (talking about Canada... I don't know American history) and will say you're disrespectful if you don't care for it. It's mind blowing. I'm not disrespecting the dead. And I respect what people have done to get to where we are today. But the past is the past. Leave it there and get over it.

    Because history usually focuses on men’s achievements as society had been sexist for a really long time. They didn’t even want women to be monarchs , just look back at the drama of Henry VIII he married 6 women to have a male heir and killed 2 of them. His son Edward died at a young age and Elizabeth Tudor was the damn best monarch that England had.

    Its just a matter or celebrating the accomplishments of women and their contributions to history.

      William the Conqueror was your best monarch.

      After defeating the Anglo-Saxon army at Hastings, he crushed opposition and rebellion to his reign by completely annihilating the north of England. Then... just to make a point... he had his coronation regalia sent from London which he donned and ate Christmas dinner in amongst the ashes of York. Just to make sure everyone knew who was the boss.

      Elizabeth was a turd compared to him. Just because she has a vagina doesn’t make her a great ruler or special in any way.

      @Exterminatore what a load of troll bollox.

      William was a good war leader but a fairly crap administrator.

      Male kings that have been great are tudors and Hanoverian
      Some exceptional women have been behind the throne.

      Saying William was, shows how little you understand English history.

      Laughable attempt at trolling.

      Why should he care about administration with the exception of his own people?

      The Anglo-Saxons were a conquered people. They were treated as a conquered people as they should have been. William took full account and numbered everything in England (Doomsday Book), he completely stripped Anglo-Saxon nobles of their holding and gave it to his own people and rightfully so. He made Norman French the official language and systematically removed and destroyed pretty much all trappings of Anglo-Saxon culture.

      I think that’s Amazing. He wasn’t interested in ruling the Anglo-Saxons, but rather taking what was rightfully his from them. They were merely tossed aside as one would do with a used piece of tissue paper. I guess that’s what happens when your King fabricate a claim on the throne, and gets crushed, and then you rebel against the new king who happens to be a bloodthirsty and savage man.

      The entire Norman line were all solid Kings. The Plantagenet line were also good except John who was an absolute wastrel and disgrace.

      The Tudors were losers. Especially Elizabeth who everyone thinks was awesome for simply having a vagina.

      I understand English history very well. The first thing I understand is you’ve all been ruled by foreigners and a foreign line since 1066. How’s that feel? To never have been ruled by one of your own I’m the last 1000 years?

      @Exterminatore god what a cockwomble you are.

      Know one cares about who ruled who.

      The Normans where descendants of same Viking line as had previously ruled England, the Saxons, Angles and jutes invaded and pushed out the Britons.

      Actually the Normans kept a few Saxons in place and also the language is a mix of high Latin from Normans, Saxon, Scandinavian and English.

      The reason you have things like Easter is because of Celtic culture.

      God you are an imbecile.

      I care about who ruled who. It indicates who dominated and who was dominated.

      I’m an imbecile? As is typical of people who cannot make a constructive argument they result to slander and insults in an attempt to compensate for their lack of intelligence.

      I also don’t recall asking you for a history lesson. You’re quite full of yourself aren’t you? In your arrogance you’re actually going to lecture me on who the Normans were or where Easter comes from. As if I don’t know. Thank goodness I have you to educate me. I’d be fully ignorant about all this had you not come along! What will you attempt to lecture me on next?

      Also come up with better insults than cockwomble. That makes you sound like a proper British faggot.

      I am American, but the fact I mentioned the Plantagenet dynasty earlier should have been a tip-off I’m fairly well versed in English history. I even mentioned John as being a Plantagenet.

      Ask an American who John was they will have no idea much less who the Plantagenets were. You’d be lucky if 1 out of 300 Americans can answer that successfully.

      I can’t believe you people have the energy to argue about history to this degree. I was discussing Elizabeth as a diplomat and not a conqueror. Because if given the opportunity I think most people would probably prefer to live during Elizabethan times than under any Plantagenet ruler. So much fucking war.

    Because snowflakes need a month out of the year to pretend like they're important, while ironically admitting that in doing so, they are also unimportant every other month of the year. I mean, if women were so important (and I'd like to think they are), which throw them one pity month out of the year to pretend like they matter, and then go back to ignoring them the rest of the year? Is this implying the other 11 months are "Men's History Month" and that men are 11x more important than women?

    Same reason why I (as a black dude) don't like Black History Month. It's patronizing, and only insecure losers need to be thrown a bone like that.

    Well, for these and many other reasons..
    Women were neglected, abused, denied education and when -in spite of all that- we contributed in history men still took the credit. It's not a 'pity month' but a 'why do we always hear about men's achievements and not ours? let's change that' month.
    A woman and her team designed the software for apollo 11 but all people know is that a man set foot on the moon.

    Why is women’s history month a thing?

    Also because this wasn't advertised that long ago. Shame on Bic.

    Why is women’s history month a thing?

    And also because we can count with our fingers how many countries have full gender equality... We've achieved so much but we should learn from the past to build a better future

    Because why not? I don’t get why we can’t have nice things anymore. It’s like people can’t just celebrate something without it being seen as “stupid”. Everyone always has to find a problem with anything that excludes them. It’s like hating from outside the club. Just let women be positive about other women. It can’t possibly be deep enough to be “stupid”.

    As opposed to a woman's history year, or something?

    Are you that insecure you cannot tolerate a bit of time being allocated to showcase some outstanding activism and/or gallantry? Even that which you, your family or kids might be profiting from?

    You're hardly being told to bow down on both knees. If you're not into it, move on. Stop gatekeeping and being a 60's grump.

    because it was invented as a way to "celebrate women" i get the O. G reason women are not mention in history. we forget about the escapades of Rahab and Ruth so they can I have a point and really women's history beyond the Bible can be summed up within a month as far as relevance by which I mean big named events.

    Let's face it Martha Washington and Abigail Adams etc are the founding mothers supporting the founding fathers

      men were treated poorly all throughout history. In the case of Feminists just look at the White Feather Campaign to get men to die on the front lines with shaming tactics. And it's men who are used by the state as disposable resources, not women.

      Because men were seen as leaders that's supposed to fight for the country and men were aloud to have a voice. We celebrate men's accomplishments all the time with Presidents Day, Columbus Day and independence Day. It's only been 100 years since women could vote and 61 years since women could work.

      that's not accurate. Women had tons of autonomy in Ancient Rome and Late Sparta. And they reigned many times in Egypt. Many of the Celtic tribes, especially Gaels had female leaders throughout history. But one theme was consistent with that. When the females took charge they were conquered or destroyed. Cases in point, Boudica, Cleopatra, the Empress of Rome let the Vandals into the city to spite her husband and they ended up raping and killing everyone and kidnapping her, and almost with Bloody Mary and Queen Elizabeth I who managed to piss off all of her rivals simultaneously and spark both a civil war and 2 land invasions on her homeland that resulted in many dying, including children as young as 8 and 9 years old on the front lines.

    The claim is that white males are the hegemony, so when you speak about history in general you're actually speaking about the history of white males. From that perspective, every single other socio-political and socio-economic group has been "left out", its historical events and figures ignored. These months dedicated to women's history, black history, etc., are meant to be steps towards changing that situation.

    Because the more women compete against men in a mans realm , the less valuable women feel. Today's women are in a rut between love without any disapline and they're value decreasing emensly in society. Satan has twisted Gods beautiful design and intention of love xisaplined perfectly to love without any ramifications or disaplines involved.

      Women are underestimated. My mothers life goal was to show that no man was better than her. That she could do just as much as she wanted. If she was going to remodel our kitchen. If she calls someone to pay and do it and some man makes the comment "good thing you hired a man. You couldn't do it even if you tried." my mother would have fire the person she hired and then she would remodel it herself. My father couldn't help. Too many disabilities. My mother never let a man tell her she couldn't do something because when they did, well she proved them wrong. Women aren't just pretty little things that you show off to your friends and that you leave at home to do all the house work. Women are strong, hard workers, independent and NO MAN can be better than them. I am like my mother. If my brother walked up to me and said I couldn't do this or that I would go do it. I was the same way at 11 to 13 years old. We had a trampoline and my brother took months to teach himself to do all these stunts and then tell me I can't. I made him stand by the trampoline and WATCH me. I always perfected every move whether I had to practice or not. A man told my sister she can't play baseball because she was too weak. She found ALL her male friends that played baseball and she played a game with them. She was just as good maybe even better than them,. Women need their moment to shine because men shoot them down way too often.

      tell you what? Grab a time machine, get your mum a gun, and send her off to the front lines of D-Day and then talk to me about the remodeling of kitchens. You're being emotional, not realistic. Men and women are no able to do all the same things. There's a reason why in history and today they didn't and dont want women fighting in front line combat. There's also a reason why no woman has ever held the UFC heavyweight title either.

      so you mean she was discharged. But why was she having sex while deployed? It goes back to you trying to say that she was trying to prove no man was better than her. Clearly they were because they can't get pregnant thus that makes them a better soldier because a female's biology causes more liabilities.

      @t-8900 Yeah discharged, my mother got pregnant before and was always under weight so she tookt he weight gain as finally catching up with height and age. She didn't have morning sickness really and she took the Nausea from being overheated.

    What, should we have a men’s month? Women get paid less in jobs, get harassed and sexually assaulted more, had to fight for rights to VOTE. Women’s day should be half of the year, not only a month. That’s equality. But we don’t, so what does that say?

    It is another part of the Communist plan to drive a wedge between men and women, to destroy the family, as per the Communist Manifesto (Marx, 1854).

      Men don’t really need a month you all practically rule everything to begin with so I don’t see the issue. Women have to work twice as hard to sit at the table and well some of us are the table. 5 years ago when I was in undergrad my intern supervisor was a guy... I have since past his credentials and licensing... you think I’m getting paid nearly half of what he’s making right now🤨 nope.

    No idea but most likely to appease feminists and make them feel unequal as man don't need to be celebrated for a whole month. It must exist to kill last bits of equality we have.

      Because it implies women aren't important any other time of the year and that they need one pity month to make them feel special and validate their fragile egos, instead of just acknowledging that some women (though honestly, far less than men) have made great achievements throughout history.

      It's a Participation Trophy that undermines women and reduces them down to 30 days out of the year to where people have to pretend that they're special, instead of just treating them as important to history and society year round. That's why it and any other "[_____] month" is stupid.

      @MCheetah Although I don't fully disagree with you, think about it as Martin Luther King day, or Veteran's day. It's a day to remember them, or their achiements when they are otherwise not talked about on a daily basis. It doesn't undermine anything.

      You are right that women haven't accomplished as much as men historically speaking, although that is in part to them being forced into a housewife position in most of history. But the fact that they have less achievements is the very reason it's needed. It's not about fragile egos. It's about what we are teaching the next generation. Imagine going into a history class, and almost every achievement mentioned was a woman's achievement. As a child, you would likely think that women are just better at things like that, or that men have no place in it. Then for a month, school's focus on the history that of men to show you that you do have to power to succeed if you so choose.

      Obviously, you'd be more likely to think you are more capable of accomplishing what you set out to do than had they just told you everything was done by women. And now reverse this and hopefully you can see why it's important.

      @SpiffyDiffy
      You are comparing important events in history or an important person to an entire class of people. That's not the same thing. Look at this way: Do we have a Men's Month, or a Human's Month, or an Earthlings Month, or a Mammals Month, or a Carbon-Based Lifeforms Month?

      "being forced into a housewife position in most of history."
      This is objectively false on so many levels. For starters, marriage not even being that old of an institution, and secondly, implying anyone "forced" women to do anything. This sounds like male feminist talk.

      "It's about what we are teaching the next generation."
      Yeah, I brought up Participation Trophies. As for your other point, What-Aboutisms mean nothing. We shouldn't do something just to avoid upsetting hypothetical imaginary people. Your point doesn't work anyway, because as I said, you'd still be spending 11 months of the year talking about men, so these imaginary children would still think of women as being "lesser" anyway. My point of NOT targeting women one month a year to Streisand Effect them as being seen as only 8% important to society adds more to the point you want to achieve than yours does.

      So no. It's still not important and my point about it only appealing to insecure snowflakes still stands.

      @MCheetah Dude, regardless of whether they were married or not, women in most of history have been put in the position of raising the children. It's simple facts. Yes, there were some queens and powerful women, but those were fewer than there were men.

      It's not a pity month as you put it. And since most of history was made by men, you simply can't talk about men and women equally throughoit the year. So it doesn't hurt to give a single month to focus on women. Call it male feminist all you want. I want my daughters and nieces to feel like they can accomplish just as much as anyone else.

      Also, saying they weren't forced into those roles? Women at least in America were taught to be subservient and obey their husbands. Men were even allowed to beat women without it seeming like an issue for a long time. Maybe you didn't pay attention in history class, or maybe they just didn't teach the worse side of history, but women barely had any say until relatively recently.

      Calling it a participation trophy is stupid as well. Bringing to light the successes and innovations of women is an important part of history. And imagine calling everyone else a snowflake when he only "snowflake" here is the person getting upset about month dedicated to someone who isn't you. Seriously, you are the one offended here.

      @MCheetah First of all, I don't consider myself a male feminist. And even if I was, so what? Why is thinking women should be equal a bad thing? I think both sides got a shitty hand, and I think there are different ways to obtain growth from it. You are trying to shove some view down my throat that isn't even what I believe to make me seem misguided and that you are right. Ignoring the past does nothing, and it's not sexist to realize the past was sexist. If you think things with women in professional fields are fine, go into engineering. Women have to put their names under a male underlings just to get their topic any recognition in the broader community. Having a month dedicated to saying "Hey, women have contributed to scientific progress as well!" not only gives little girls motivation, but also makes little boys realize growing up that women can compete just as much as they can intellectually. Get offended by the month all you want. I've seen the good it can do.

      @humayun69 are you hitting the gym, keeping your B vitamins and choline up, and eating leafy greens? that combination usually helps. Avocados, organic celery, and bananas also boost libido. Also lay off the fapping or limit it to 2 times a week and dont death grip or go to fast. You may have to retrain your body and go without orgasms for a few weeks. The results are worth it.
