On top of March being women's history month, March 8th marks International Women's Day, where people realize just how far women have come, but at the same time look ahead and realize just how far we still have to go. Jweekly.com posted an article about how in today's society we take women's rights for granted, and no one makes a big deal out of a women being at the top of a company or popular when it comes to politics. The article says that "We look forward to the time when an International Women’s Day would no longer be necessary, with women fully elevated to coequal status with men in every respect." I would like to see the day when this happens, and we don't have to fight out way to the top just to get noticed or to be taken seriously. I know I'm not the only one who would like to see women in authority a normality, and not something that people are taken aback by.
