International Women’s Day

Mimosa_2008

vilaine fille sends greetings to her sisters all over the globe for International Women’s Day, La Festa della Donna.

In particular, she salutes those lucky enough to live in civilized countries, who enjoy abortion rights; state-funded healthcare, child care, and maternity leave; and explicit guarantees of equality under the law. (G-d willing, she’s gonna be joining you real soon.)

Read Mary Wollstonecraft’s A Vindication of the Rights of Women.
