The funny thing is that all this foolishness started in the US, by strangely enough, a bunch of commies there; the idea was then pinched by the Russkies and developed through the Soviet era. The irony, of course, is that when it comes to womens empowerment, marxist countries are no better than Islamic fundamentalist ones. Still, If women believe in this womens week twaddle & it keep's 'em happy, then so be it.
