Ladies they did all the hard work. Your man searched high and low for that perfect gift in the weeks running up to Valentine’s Day. They planned the perfect night out or in, brought in good wine and flowers and treated you like the princess you know you are. Well now men have a special […]
It began on March 8, 1908 in New York City. 15,000 women took to the streets and marched to ask for better pay and shorter hours. And for the right to cast their vote. In 1911, Clara Zetkin, leader of the Women’s Office for Social Democratic Party in Germany launched the first […]
