And again a few days HOLIDAY! And the main one is March 8, the favorite holiday is not only the weak, but also the strong side of mankind. For how much joy they have with the eyes, admiring gifts and kisses, special hairstyles, specially tailored or bought for this day outfits. So that in the first rays of the spring that has hardly come, too, shine bright March sun and give joy to your beloved!

A good holiday on March 8! And ponder: why would he? It turns out that there are no special reasons. Just in the spring of 1857, textile workers in New York strolled through Manhattan, demanding higher wages, better working conditions and equal rights with men. The demonstration was dispersed, but the women made a lot of noise, that's what they called the March 8 Women's Day.

Soon, the International Conference declared it the International Day of Women's Solidarity, which began to work in the struggle for political, economic, and also their social equality. 
In Russia, this day, all women celebrate annually.

All this has already become a tradition since 1913. Well, and from May of 1965, on the eve of the 20th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War, the International Women's Day on March 8 was declared a non-working holiday in the USSR.

In general, women's day existed even in ancient Rome. On this day, freedom-loving ladies who are married could receive romantic gifts from their husbands, and were surrounded by love, care and attention.

Slaves also received beautiful gifts on this day, in addition, they were allowed to rest.Then, dressed in the best clothes, they wore wreaths on their heads, the Romans came to the temple of the goddess Vesta, who was considered the guardian of the home.

Apparently, after many years these passions grew and matrons decided to become everything. What have they achieved!
