Why isn't men's day as popular as women's day???

SW-User
I hate that we even have women's day or men's day for that matter. Every day should be women's day. Every day should be men's day. In certain countries, women's day is celebrated because the women there are still not valued the way they should be every other day.

Because men generally have less value as compared to women.

Cause sexism against men exists as well, just not a hot topic like sexism against women is. 🤷‍♂️

Because historically, every day is men's day. That being said, I don't celebrate either one.

It is to me. But indians also have a respect your brother day. So that's when i celebrate the men in my life! Regardless of blood relations or not

The day is very much unknown here in the U.S. Nor is women's day.

Now father's and mother's day is very much different.

The vanity of superficial self congratulation for a choice of nature would be immature.

Because they don't give birth?

@Melpomene giving birth is the reason why women's day is celebrated? 😮

And I thought we were more than tha. Not just pregnant loons @Ishtar

@Ishtar @Gangstress Because they can give the gift of life and in some if not most of the matriarchal cultures that's the main reason women were respected. With the development of the patriarchy, men got a bigger role in society, left the women to take care of the house and even took their voice from them. Women's day is celebrated because they wanted their voices back as well as equality between genders but the reason Women's day is more popular than Men's day is that men didn't have to fight for that, their rights weren't taken away from them.
Men spend a couple of minutes to inseminate a woman and then she has to carry the baby for 9 months and give birth which can be hours and hours of pain. And even if she isn't pregnant, she can still feel pain every month and regardless of that, she has to act like everything's alright. Not to mention the great legacy patriarchy has given us - to separate work into "male" and "female" with women doing what has to be done and men washing the dishes once and proclaiming "Honey, I washed the dishes for you".
it isnt? well some men could easily pull off women's day and celebrate with them! 👗👠 😉🤭

Men have less exotic points

Every day is mens day!! 🤷‍♀️
The issues that both genders face are very different and so I think a direct comparison is not relevant.
