Feminist's Day
When rightwingers and other malcontents blame Feminists for a lower birthrate (in the West, at least, where virtually no one dies in childbirth anymore), women working outside the home (for whatever reason, but whatever it is, achieving financial independence from men), girls doing better in school than boys (while their moms make 70 cents for every dollar their dads make, paving the way for their daughters to break through that glass ceiling) - who are they talking about, exactly?
And I mean - exactly. I want names. You know, so I can give credit where credit is due.
Because that's one wily group of coyotes to accomplish all of that while Conservative and Liberal male politicians pretty much held all the legislative power throughout the country.
Say, I know - instead of Dalton McGuinty's sexist old Family Day, maybe John Tory could suggest we have Feminist Day. I mean, if Feminists are responsible for everything being so great (for girls and women, anyway - even without any legislative power), I think they deserve a Holiday named after them.
Or just replace Mother's Day or Secretary's Day with Feminist's Day.
Why not?
