The celebration of the woman and the angel of the hearth 
The years between 1900 and 1921 were crucial in the Western world to the social consciousness of women. The "International Women's Day", hereinafter referred to as the most commonly "Women's Day", was devised in 1910 in Copenhagen, in the House of the People of the labor movement, where more than 100 women, representing 17 countries, had agreed to a conference on equal rights.
But the first year of celebration, attended by more than one million women in Austria, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, was marred by an accident. A few days after the celebrations, held on March 19, a fire broke out in the Triangle Factory in New York and caused 146 casualties, including many women.
Women's Day was born, therefore, within the socialist movement. For some years it was not set an exact date for this day, until in June of '21 the Communist women, gathered in Moscow for the "Second Conference", decided to take on 8 March as International Women's Day working in memory of that spontaneous movement of women petroburghesi, on 8 March 1917, following a protracted anti-war demonstrations that had starved and killed husbands and children, forced the czar to abdicate and give it the right to vote.
The choice of 8 March to mark a terrible fact, occurred in a factory in New York in 1908 - where the owner had closed his factory workers, guilty of having shown the will to strike, and afterwards set it on fire, causing 129 dead - seems the result of a populist fantasy or journalistic carelessness that confuses dates and events, not having found historical documentary sources.
fascist and Nazi regimes that darkened Europe for the next twenty years, suspended the Women's Day. This tradition went back to being remembered after the war in the democratic and socialist countries. Indeed, the United Nations in 1975 proclaimed on 8 March, International Women's Day, correcting it two years later in''Day for Women's Rights and International Peace.''
Today the party of women, tends to lose more and more social and to be remembered as a general holiday, not without an apparatus of saccharine rhetoric. The long road to women's empowerment and equal rights is not over. Personally I think he also strayed into the path most taken. I do not think that women should strive to be equal to men, or to trace certain characteristics, too bad. It pains me to hear the complaints of those who deprecate the low percentage of women in command of the armed forces, banking, or more centers of power: Codest people, instead of raising the woman to the sublime, the lower the rank of "male power", ie a sort of pithecanthropus that has misled the intellect and transferred the ability to love, a Christian and sensual, in order to and use others for personal gain. The woman "angel of the hearth" was certainly an exaggeration, and often an excuse by the arrogant male to hold a person liable as a thing. This cultural conception of women as it is still the basis of violence and rapes of women. But we must return to the angel of the hearth to locate certain peculiarities of beautiful women - such as gentleness, kindness, altruism - that today's approval of the sexes has made it out of fashion. From these circumstances I believe that women should start to find a way to give greater authenticity to femininity and maybe spurs man to be a bit too 'less pithecanthropus.
