• 带上性别的尊重和赞美都可以打一个问号

• 我们不关心福利，我们关心权利

一、除了买买买，“妇女节”还剩下什么

"In fact, it has nothing to do with age, as long as you look forward to beauty, romance and gentle, and a little naive, you are always girls." For a variety of business activities, the seller interpretated perfect, but this is just a gorgeous consumer packaging.

“其实与年龄无关，只要你对美丽、浪漫和温柔充满期待，还要有那么一点天真，你就是永远的女生。”对于各种活动商家诠释的非常漂亮，然而这只是一场消费主义的华丽包装。

International Women's Day was originally designed to commemorate over 140 women who died in the fire in the triangular underwear factory in New York City in 1911. At the same time, it celebrated women’s contributions and achievements in economic, political and social fields festival. Ways and means for women throughout the world in their struggle for equality with men is long and International Women's Day is a testimony to women's history.

“国际妇女节”，本来是为了纪念在1911年美国纽约三角内衣工厂火灾中丧生的140多名女工，同时为赞颂妇女在经济、政治、社会等领域做出的贡献和取得的成就而设立的节日。全世界妇女为争取与男性平等所走过的斗争之路，道途且长，“国际妇女节”是妇女创造历史的见证。

In the age of consumerism, this festival has gradually lost its feminism meaning for women, "freedom" is more important than "equality," what’s more, is the freedom to buy bags, high heels, designer dresses and high-end cosmetics.

在消费主义时代下，这个节日逐渐失去了女权主义色彩——对妇女而言，“自由”比“平等”重要，确切地说，是购买包包、高跟鞋、名牌裙子和高级化妆品的自由。

二、带上性别的尊重和赞美都可以打一个问号

In addition to the consumption of sugar-coated shells, but also love the pink packaging. In March of last year, some people proposed "Girl's Day instead of Women's Day." Some people also promoted that "Anti-March 7, Celebrate March 8".

除了消费的糖衣炮弹，还有关爱的粉红包装。去年三月，有人提出“女生节代替妇女节”，也有人倡议“反三七过三八”。

Gender inequality still exists everywhere. So what is the point of discussing "Girl's Day instead of Women's Day"? Instead of arguing that "girls" or "women," we should learn from the vigilance and effective fight for reason. First of all, as Li Sipan, an expert on women's issues, says, "All questions of gender respect and compliment can be questioned."

两性不平等仍然存在，处处存在，那么讨论“女生节取代妇女节”的意义何在？与其争辩是“女生”还是“妇女”，不如学会理智的警惕和有效的争取。首先，像女性议题专家李思磐所说，“所有带上性别的尊重跟赞美都可以打一个问号”。

三、我们不关心福利，我们关心权利

March 8th International Women's Day, could have been a commemoration of women's rights and cultural identity festival, the spiritual core directed at the right. Today, Women's Day has been transformed into another shopping carnival in China. The feminist agenda has been broken down into trivial matters, talking about power without talking about rights.

三八国际劳动妇女节，本来是一个纪念妇女争取权利和文化认同的节日，精神内核直指权利。如今，妇女节在中国已经变身为另一个购物狂欢节。女权议题已经碎片化为鸡毛蒜皮的小事，只谈权力不谈权利。

True feminists, speaking not men and women indifference, but rather advocate fair, the most direct is that women need the same equal opportunities with men. True torture is before the sexes and equal opportunity.

真正的女权者，谈的不是男女无差别化，而是倡导公平，最为直接的是，女性需要跟男性一样平等的机会。真正的平权拷问，是性别面前，机会均等。

Women's Day, a day when many women are discriminated even though they are set up for women specifically. What we care about is that everyone should be free to choose and to be self-fulfilling.

三八妇女节，一个即使是专门为女性设定，却仍有很多女性遭受歧视的日子。我们关心的是让每个人都能够自由选择，让所有人都能够自我实现。

三八妇女节，祝每一个女人都能长得越来越漂亮，活得也越来越漂亮。
