Do I need to buy a gift for my girlfriend on 8th of march? Or

it's not a holiday, don't buy her anything

on the same level as veteran's day, ys don't buy your girl flowers for that

I did buy her flowers for valentine's day and she bought me chocolate. It is considered a holiday here.

well where the fuck are you?

you say you're from europe and unsure, so i assumed you're asking for your american girlfriend

you should know the rules for your own country

>womens day
kek never heard of that before

>>18107587
I am from northern Europe as is my girlfriend. Yeah, you're right, I should know. Okay, I'll just get her nice flowers and we'll spend a nice evening together and go out.

>buying something for a made-up social justice day
if she genuinely expects something because it's "women's day", you should have serious doubts

8th of March isn't a day of celebration. It's supposed to bring attention to the various ways women are/can be discriminated against (whether you agree with that or not doesn't matter, that's what the day is about).
It's like buying your Jewish girlfriend flowers for Holocaust memorial day

Get her some acacia dealbata, I'm southern European and where I live is rather common for women to receive that specific flower. Orchids would be nice too

Pretty sure women are striking tomorrow (At least in America) Just cook her a meal or something.

So basically it'll be like when black people were supposed to go on strike?

Basically the upper class who have good enough jobs to take vacation or personal days will just take the day off, and nobody will give a fuck.

If my boyfriend bought me something on women's day....I'd be really blown away.

No. You have to ignore her all day. It's a "day without women" so you have to show you'll survive without her.

Lol don't do this. Make her dinner or something. Flowers would be cute but yeah, it's not really a holiday, women are striking.

>women are striking
for what? they should just feel lucky its not caveman days where we'd club them over the head if they stepped out of line
