    Just so that I'm understanding, the feminist movement has spent decades trying to get equal opportunities at work, stores, cars, voting...etc and the protest is for women to stay home?  Am I understanding this correctly.
    I don't think it's quite as strict as the orthodox sabbath. They can probably drive to Starbucks and text and stuff :)

    Shouldn't a day focused on women mean they should be more active in spreading the word rather than less active by people taking note of their absence or is this like a well deserved time off for reflection?

    While They're home, hopefully they have a good meal cooked for those of us who do have to go out and work.

    I think it is.  They're not supposed to be buying things to show how important they are to the economy!!  lol, like no shopping was gonna be a successful protest.

    Today women have shown they are a liability to the system.  When school shut down and left me in a pickle it did nothing to endear me to the struggle of women.

    Thank you to all the women out there who helped me when I needed it.  I just realised that a lot of the pivotal points in my life came about because of the advice given by women.  My life is pretty good now because of that advice.
