This day can be full of cringe to be honest, as people awkwardly try to be inclusive of women and overtly recognise women's gender it's just a bit strange.

Interesting observation. Most of the people where I’m from have not heard too much about IWD as there has not been too much hype about it, which is not surprising given the treatment of women’s rights has been recently πŸ™„
Thanks for sharing your post @ruthmoog! :)

Is that just this year, or is it usually the same?

How IWD is perceived can vary hugely too, from country to field of work. I am speaking from the UK, where there's often a corporate angle where awareness days can become the one day a year to tokenise employees who are overlooked the rest of the year.
Maybe I am being cynical though! Some positivity is nice XD
