International Women's Day

Tomorrow we celebrate yet another International Women's Day and the Ministry of Women's Rights, Child Development and Family Welfare has figured out that the best way to promote women is to take a popular presidential campaign slogan, to modify it a little and to plaster it all over billboards accompanied by pictures of nice-looking women.

Women We Can


What the hell is that supposed to mean? That we can sell vegetables, or work as assistants or call-centre agents, or become police officers or even occupy a savvy post in an organisation? Thanks for telling us what we have been knowing for decades!

Why not try providing assistance to women really needing the help for once?

Oh! And I hope you CAN update the Ministry of Women website because it badly needs some work done on it.

Women we can.

Nice say, but not very original...

I agree that the billboards give you the impression that it's more the "International Good Looking Women's Day" than "International Women's Day".

Seems a bit copy paste of the moto of Nike!

yeah i've seen it and thought that was terrible.
its like claiming something like le ciel est bleu.
whilst we alrealdy know we can.
plus i hate the logic, if not lack of it, behind international women's day.
and who are we to judge what someone has to do, stay at home or go to work? really that guy's comment was pure bs.
i mean come one lets all watch l word and celebrate women in all their greatness!
we rule ladies. we really do.
