http://transgriot.blogspot.com/2011/03/international-womens-day-2011-where-do.htmlToday is not only International Women's Day (IWD), but we're celebrating the centennial observance of it.
The first observance of International Womens day was on March 19, 1911 in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland . Over one million women and men attended rallies in which they called for women to have the right to vote and hold public office. They also demanded women's rights to work, to vocational training and to an end to discrimination on the job.
