Women's Day

It’s Women’s Day and come-what-may There’s progress we are making. We’ve given all a wake-up call And notice they are taking. It’s not okay when equal pay Is not out on the table. Let’s overhaul the protocol Whenever we are able. And lechers note – your one-time gloat Had better vanish quickly For we won’t stand for moves unplanned; Reactions will be prickly. So let’s devote this day to float A vision of a sequel When, hand in hand, across the land, We’re all considered equal.

Mrs Ilene. It seems to me the rules have changed. What was once considered as flirting, has now become sexual harassment. Back in the day, women used to love to get a man's attention but I guess not so much anymore. You are woman and I hear you roar! (from the song)
