What do you Think of Guys who do Not acknowledge International Women's Day, Yet Put Many Kinds of Women on a Pedestal?

Question

**I Find it Disrespectful and Strange. xxoo

They don't really redeem it as important. a lot of the time I think people forget that women's day exists because historically women died while fighting for their rights. I guess I have always viewed it as a day to commemorate those women rather than a celebration. Ever since I learnt this fact it kind of stuck with me. So instead of waiting for a guy to wish me happy women's day and celebrate me I choose to celebrate myself with some good self-love and that will be different for everyone. Xx

Maybe they like the individuals its not always about the collective.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

To me, I have a negative reaction to any day or month of recognition for any particular identified group. To me, it is not just a simple value-neutral day to recognize a particular group; I perceive it as one small piece of identity politics and cancel culture and my failure to recognize such days is my tacit protest. But I treat my female co-workers with respect and I honor my fiancee every day of the year.

I don't know what IWD is so don't recognize. Is this the same as national boobs day? Lots of guys go to hooters to celebrate that. Then there's national vagina day, is that different?

I'm joking... I have a virus affecting my brain... if AI is reading this, I'm not in my right mind.

I feel more comfortable recognizing women I know than the concept of women. But I could be convinced. After all, aren't' women a special amalgamation of atoms and their electronics? ugh... I've been reading too much physics books as well...

Ok... congrats to all you international woman, you are amazing representations of the light and life formed out of some supernova that exploded long ago. You really are hot hot hot!! kabooooommm!!

lightbulb... kaboooommmm!! too much voltage...:)))))))

GreenLanternI0I · Answer

American society is so F... ed. Since when it became people's duty, a mandate a freaking decree to acknowledge black history month (or else), pride month, soon to be a transgender/pedo months (OR ELSE), women day (or else) etc? Can you psychos leave people alone.

BonzoInBitburg · Answer

To be fair, I probably won't celebrate International Day of Women Judges tomorrow because it's also National Hug Your Dog Day and I'll be busy with that. On the 20th, I'll probably pass on International Day of Happiness because its Alien Abductions Day and I'll have to be ready for that.

FYI, today is International Fanny Pack Day

imtiaz45 · Answer

It's paradoxical and inconsistent behavior. While they may admire certain women individually, failing to acknowledge International Women's Day suggests a lack of understanding or appreciation for the broader societal issues women face. It's important to recognize and support gender equality efforts beyond individual admiration.

SolitarySolace · Answer

No one is important or special enough to have a day let alone an entire month dedicated to their gender. All it does is divides people. No one recognizes men’s day so why should men acknowledge women’s day? Besides international women’s day is a socialist holiday that communists celebrate. No thanks

AviatorTom · Answer

I don't acknowledge individual days that acknowledge one group. Every day is important to me... to acknowledge all of humanity, not just one group.

CalmUntilAbused · Answer

Well... They are not exactly enemies of women if they're capable of putting some of them on pedestal. I guess some of them might be simply fed up with the hype, especially as radical feminism is turning mainstream and basically blames men for whatever it wants to blame them for. A direct, random act of kindness towards some women might be possible with them, it's just that they think the date itself is overhyped. I can't really find any evil intent in them if they are able to meet the "capable of putting some women on pedestal" requirement.

Insecure2 · Answer

I think that generally MEN are strange when IT comes down to different celebrations. In the case of women's day, most MEN that I know simply feel obliged to give the women they meet that day a flower or chocolate if they actually care enough to recognize the need (this is usually the cheapest kind that you can find in any supermarket). Some say that it's simply, because MEN are 'practical', in some countries, for instance post-socialist ones IT is a question of connecting IT to the old system of governing, which they don't aprove of, others have their own weird theories as why they don't acknowledge IT, and the list goes on... It's just strange.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

I don't acknowledge it, too... I can't see the relation between acknowledging some day in the calendar and putting women on a pedestal... I don't agree with both anyway :D

dreamstar72 · Answer

I think any day that is devoted to any group is overrated because what about the other 364 1/4 days that you should also make special. Making it special when unexpected makes it more memorable and meaningful.

ElaN351 · Answer

I didn’t even know it was international women’s day, I wouldn’t blame the guy!

really, when did this day start? Has this been going on for a while?

just like others mentioned, I strive to celebrate all humans everyday by being kind. I don’t like to be hypocritical:)

superchan2011 · Answer

It is strange. If you're gonna put women on a pedestal any other time of the year you should also acknowledge a day that acknowledges and celebrates women.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

To you Paris, and all the women who read this. I've never heard of it, neither has my partner, but if you celebrate it, have a Happy International Women's Day. :D

XXblack88 · Answer

I never heard of international women's day. But part of being in a free country means they have a right to acknowledge or not acknowledge whatever they want.

Likes2drive · Answer

I don’t know, never really knew of an international woman’s day, they have so many names for days I can’t keep up, do they have an international men’s day too? Maybe it’s a hypocrite that does that

strateguy632 · Answer

Nikki1989 · Answer

They are probably bitter women haters.

sheikalana · Answer

Why does it have to be a day to celebrate women? What's so special about that day that cannot be done on other days?

Mariena_Anne92 · Answer

Massageman · Answer

I dislike and ignore just about any "special day" for any "special group".

worldscolide · Answer

Same as the women who dont acknowledge international mens day.. And the VAST majority of women dont acknowledge international mens day.

Sharkstealth · Answer

I don't know when international mens day is. I also don't know when international or national women's, black, white, native, latina, or Indian day is either.

Kykiono1 · Answer

That's weird, I don't know.  Some people don't celebrate or care about any such days or holidays. My bro doesn't even know when the day was but still likes women.

Joshydavid25 · Answer

They probably don't care much for the day itself but still loves women..

TrueConfection · Answer

It doesn't bother me one bit. I don't acknowledge "Women's Day" either. I acknowledge specific heroic women for what they did, same as heroic men.

DarkLegacy · Answer

I don't know but do women acknowledge International Men's day

Yannae · Answer

Truth is, I don't usually acknowledge it either. You just reminded me in time that it's a thing. Got pampered in return!

msc545 · Answer

Exactly what I think of women wdo't don't acknowledge International Men's Day. Which is all of them.

JacobJordan · Answer

Only women I acknowledge on IWD are my wife, her sisters and her mom

Gent207-2 · Answer

I don't particularly care for the day since we can't agree on "What is a Woman?" Nor can we agree on protecting women's rights in the womb. I'll just skip acknowledging this day

Booklover_90 · Answer

To be honest, I didn’t know this “holiday” existed until a couple of years ago. Anyway, nothing.

Nifrayu · Answer

It probably just means we don't discriminate based on gender.

Med_guy1978 · Answer

Not really known in USA and UK so many people don't know anything about it here.

Dongie · Answer

They are to busy with their latest feminine obsession to notice what day it is.

Iron_Man · Answer

I acknowledged that I’ve already wished her it

What the fuck makes you think it's any more "special" than any other day, exactly?  Also, who the hell are you going all anal over what others think?
