Hi my friends, In the Women's day, I wish you're happy, peace and fund. In my local, men usually present roses for women. Men colleagues give their women colleagues roses or inviting them with small parties. Husbands usually present their wives the gifts such as dresses, chocolate etc...The couple usually go out for eating or walking. However, these activities only have in big cities. In countryside, almost people are not interested in the Women's day much. How is the Women's day in your country?

I've never heard of Women's Day. It sound a lot like Valentines Day though. I receive nothing from my husband. This is the norm. I usually get him candy hearts.

Here the Women's Day has become much more important today. However, not all the working women will have a day off work. I am one of them. My son can leave school at noon because the teachers will start this holiday. It's pretty bad that I can't stay with him and I have to work here. I love China

I think that because your country don't welcome the International women day. We don't have mother's day. We only welcome it following some Europe countries.

Yes, we welcome Valentine's day every year. And this day is expect by young people very much. The women's day is on 8/3 every year. And all man care their women by presenting them gifts or flowers. Some men cook the delicious meals for their wife and mother etc...

It reminds me the first time to celebrate the Women's day in last year.Before a week my colleagues were talking about where and how to celebrate the day. On that day,we asked men colleagues to take the work at noon,then we went to a country resort.After having the lunch,most of them were playing Majiang.The others were not playing Majiang,so we took a walk and we found a swimming pool.and then I called my little sister to come.There were no other people in the pool,only me and my sister.We had a great day.

Women's day is not famous in my country not like mother's day, other day to celebrate one of the famous Heroine of our country. Usually all woman will wear traditional dress as uniform to work on that special day.
