Last Thursday, if you had walked into a 4th year class at the beginning of the lesson, you would have heard “when’s it international men’s day?” or “why do women have a day?” and even “who cares?!” But after 10 minutes these questions were replaced with “Oh” and “Ahhh” and even “No!” as we went through and explained about the awful challenges and hurdles women had in the past (and some continue to have).
