It's also Mothers day in Albania, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Montenegro

Women have, Mothers Day, Womens Day, Valentines Day, Raksha Bhandan in India (Although it's just a ploy to trap poor unsuspecting guys). We just have Fathers day. I think the slate of centuries of female oppression has now been wiped clean. Let's start anew.

Having a Day means nothing unless the mentality of how the society views a woman changes.

The day women gets to make their own decisions right from education, career, marriage, clothing etc is the day woman are truly liberated.

Nobody has the right to tell them what they should wear or what they should do. Its still far far away.
