…TO ALL THE WOMEN OF THE FORUM!

And a reminder that the T20 World Cup Final is on this evening at the MCG. Will they get the biggest crowd ever at a women’s sporting event? I certainly hope so.

I have the TV programmed to wake up for the match.

They’d sold 75k tickets up to about Thursday.

Lets hope they get another 15.5k tickets sold, then.

Being realistic, IMO India will get up. :(

You mean singlet top. And no. It’s difficult for people who aren’t size 10 to find clothes in Bali.

The last time I went, I was 30 weeks pregnant. I do not recommend it.

I have no plans to go, pregnant or otherwise, and I do not recommend it.

I’m loving the HR people from the government agencies releasing dull, flaccid, opaque, bureaucratese PR statements about the diversity of their workforce because they’ve got eleven women from the same ethnic group, education background, family situation, gender identity, age group, disability status and religion hiding in middle-management offices somewhere.

Give me a f’n break. You couldn’t find a less diverse group if you tried!

Looks like they are not trying at all.

Although it seems they have tried your patience.

Well I didn’t.

I’m torn on IWD… it’s not that women don’t deserve recognition, but I’m worried that having a day to celebrate women makes it (the celebrating of women) unique.. and celebrating women/men/human achievements should be just something we just do rather than something we do on a given day (much like being nice to your SO anytime, not just on Valentine’s Day).

Anyway, international men’s day will be at least 20% better celebrated across the board.

I feel the same about St Pats day. Should we really only be celebrating Guinness on one particular day? I find that thought quite disturbing.
