Today is March 8, the annual International Labor Women's Day , a festival for our female compatriots. For them, what they should gain in such a day is a commendation of achievements, a praise for their efforts, a enjoyment of benefits, or a proof of respect? I think everyone has their own answer in their hearts.
In the past few years, for some reason, it seems that the word "woman" has become a taboo in the eyes of many people. It seems that it is a bit awkward to call young women "women". Some businesses took the lead, first changing the day into "Women's Day", and then taking it a step further, "Queen's Day" and "Goddess Day" came into being. The increasing intensity of merchant promotions naturally aroused some people's disagreements. I remember that two years ago, the official account of our Red Net Forum mentioned that "Queen" and "Goddess" put a lot of pressure on "women". Today, the entries of People's Daily have been released #No need to call Goddess Queen today#, and then there is another word definition. Women over 14 years old are "women". Moreover, from the perspective of value, the emergence of International Labor Women's Day is itself the result of modern women's struggle for rights and interests and resisting class oppression. The respect reflected in the words "working women" is actually not comparable to those "goddesses" and "queen" with the meaning of class oppression.

mentioned the respect for women's values. Our Hunan Province held a special report meeting to commemorate the 112th anniversary of the International Women's Day and the "cloud" report meeting today to commend the vast number of women with outstanding achievements and pay tribute to the vast number of female compatriots.

When female compatriots celebrate the festival, they should enjoy some benefits more or less. The above mentioned merchant promotions. I won’t mention whether this is to pay benefits or take the opportunity to stimulate consumption. But we can also see a lot of more practical benefits. For example, our work units of all sizes provide a lot of benefits on this day. For example, some units I know provide female employees with free movie viewing and daily necessities. Then, today, on Weibo #9-price Women's Day # was also on the hot search at high prices for a long time. When you click in, you will see that Zhejiang University , Nanjing University of Science and Technology, etc., have provided appointments for nine-price HPV vaccines. It can be said that you are keeping up with the times and reflecting care and welfare very clearly.

Like our Changsha subway, it also builds a romantic art space to pay tribute to every amazing woman. The care is reflected very delicately.

In the literature section of the Red Net Forum, many talented netizens also expressed their sincere blessings and praise for female compatriots in their own words.

On such a day, what we bring to female compatriots should not be the barbaric consumption experience of spending money like soil, nor is it the stingy sweet words rainbow fart . A thoughtful care, a passionate hug, a wrapping of sincere blessings, and a heartfelt respect are the most meaningful behaviors on this special day.
