The doorman in the building where I work said Happy Women’s Day to me this morning. Turns out, I didn’t even know it was Women’s Day.. But it is. Along with Women’s Day it’s the Global Women’s Strike with women in over 60 countries participating. I could have been skipping work today – oh well!

Lastly, it’s also Blog Against Sexism Day. I will gladly participate in this by sharing a story that happened today to one of my coworkers as the doorman said Happy Women’s Day to her too.

In the elevator:

Man: “It’s International Women’s Day?”

My female coworker: “Yes it is”

Man: “Gosh, I feel so bad that I didn’t know that…. is there an International Men’s Day?”

My coworker: “Everyday is International Men’s Day”

Indeed. We work to change that everyday.
