Happy International Women's Day!

We raised over 500$ at school last week for this day. All of it will be going to a local women's shelter. We could have done more to sensitize students on the challenges women still face in this world. I am very happy that in my case, where I live, my rights are respected.

It's not the case in other parts of the world.

For instace, just south from here, in South Dakota, they banned abortion unless the pregnancy threatens a woman's life. Gee, my kid's eyes just like those of my rapist, how sweet...

In Mexico, victims of rape are denied help. BUt when the government gets shafted they scream for international aid.

And in Asia, in certain countries, women are considered as second-class citizens.

Just some stuff to think about...
