Just that really.

My LinkedIn is full of posts from women ( mainly promoting themselves) about today.

Just fed up with it all.

Life still goes on unpleasantly for women , not saying my life is , but let's focus on other women not those who promote' look at me , look how great I am '

Urg! I’m sick of the negativity and people thinking that their bloody social media feeds are an accurate reflection of what’s happening in the non SM world.

You think life is unpleasant for women, so women being happy and positive (and saying so) is a bad thing somehow?
I think you're just green with envy because other women's lives are better than yours 🤷‍♀️

The focus in my opinion is all wrong.

Well, my mum and her friends worked hard in the 70’s and 80’s to get equal pay, make marital rape a crime, open refuges and get decent maternity leave etc. I think that’s worth celebrating. It also serves as a reminder we’ve still a long way to go.

Deeds, not words. The vast majority of IWD stuff is words.

I usually avoid LinkedIn on iwd. It's full of companies saying look we love our women employees without addressing whether they pay them well or promote them to leadership roles.
