History of Women's Day
Introduction


The international Women's Day is a day celebrated in many countries around the world.When women on all continents, often divided by national boundaries and by ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic and political differences, come together to celebrate their day, they can contemplate a tradition of not less than ninety years of struggle for equality, justice, peace and development. The international Women's Day refers to the ordinary women as makers of history and rooted in the centuries-old struggle of women to participate in society on an equal footing with men. In ancient Greece, Lysistrata initiated a sexual strike against men to end the war, in the French Revolution, Parisian women calling for "liberty, equality and fraternity" marched on Versailles to demand women's suffrage. The idea of an international Women's Day came at the end of the nineteenth century, which was, in the industrialized world, a period of expansion and turbulence, booming population growth and radical ideologies.
