What is the 2021 theme for IWD

WonderfulBuns · 16/02/2021 06:13

Does anyone know the theme for Internation Women's Day this year?

I am seeing one website with 'Choose to Challenge' and the UN site has 'Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world".

I am wondering why there are two different themes and if one is the correct one?

TIA

Ach, we're women, we can multitask.

Not all women have vaginas, probably

What is the point of IWD when men are women anyway Grin

For IWD this year my work is having a panel discussion and the topic is 'empowering men'. I kid you not.

I think it's 'choose to challenge'. I'm going by the IWD website.

Possible and plausible IWD slogans from the current shower:

Sit down and shut up.

What about men.

Smile more.

Reminds me of a women’s summit we had once that had a presentation on how to be impactful As a woman.. one of the talking points was how women are taken more seriously with a BMI of 21-22

Well this has cheered me up immensely and made me depressed as hell at one and the same time.

At least I'm getting in some practice in living with cognitive dissonance I suppose. 2021's emoji.

Lift and celebrate the Mk2 kind of women, the penis-y ones.

Ignore the boring old Mk1 cunty kind.

It's been the theme for the last few years, don't see it changing.

There’s no such thing as women.

Lipstick and head tilt.

Women should shhhh.

These are three of the most important women’s topics I’ve seen over the last year.

ArabellaScott · 16/02/2021 08:37

I am presuming the theme is a formless, miasma of woo. With breakout workshops on beauty tips to bring down the patriarchy.

Apparently Munroe Bergdorf was to open an event entitled "Gender representation in the arts."

This received a lot of pushback

This pushback was of course reframed as abuse, and Munroe deleted their twitter account

LongPauseNoAnswer · 16/02/2021 08:56

Abuse? Hmm

What I can’t understand is how they don’t see that the women all over the world speaking up about this haven’t suddenly decided to band together and hate on this one group. Surely they can see something is not right here? We didn’t all wake up bigots one day!
