People gradually forget history. On the day when they used to really congratulate defenders, including women military personnel, now give gifts just to all representatives of the stronger sex. But which days are female and which male? What is the date for congratulations will be correct?

Gender holidays

The Tradition of congratulating each other for simply belonging to the opposite sex appeared out of nowhere. The original meaning of these holidays were completely different. Thus, modern international women's day occurred from the date when feminists celebrated the day of solidarity and struggle for the rights and emancipation. It all began with the strike of textile workers in 1857, when women workers protested against the intolerable conditions of work and demanded to increase wages. And if this holiday is, having undergone many changes and has lost his fighting sense, is now considered very common, the male counterparts are not so popular and not all have such a serious historical background.

International holidays men

Fully analog 8 March to be the date 19 Nov. For 15 years, this day is celebrated international men's day. This holiday was established by the UN, but not yet so popular.

Surprisingly, the international men's day aims to draw public attention to the problem of gender discrimination of the stronger sex. This may sound strange, but feminists seeking equal rights for women in some countries have done so well that we can say, began the oppression of men. In addition, each year the festival selects the most relevant topic. Day can be dedicated to men's health and psychological well-being or positive role in the family and society. In General, the gender holidays are required in order for people to remember that the basic rights of different genders should be equal.

Now this can be considered normal. In this speech about the artificial change of gender roles, of course, is not every family has the right to freely make such decisions and to earn their respect.

Born in Trinidad and Tobago, the tradition to celebrate this feast is spread only on a small number of countries. But since he first appeared in 1999, it is hoped that soon the men's day will gain popularity along with women.

Holiday History

The Idea that the stronger sex too is necessary your day by analogy with the female, sounded even in the middle of the twentieth century, but further conversations business did not go. Finally in the 90-ies on the initiative of Professor Thomas Oaster from USA, working in men's dayThe Institute of men's studies were conducted some activities, they occurred in February. But tradition is not caught.

International men's day what it is known today, was established at the initiative of the Jerome Teelucksingh from the University of the West Indies. On 19 November, was taken because that day was born his father, who, he believed, was a wonderful example to follow.

In different countries the celebration is different. In different sources the numbers are different, but some minimal event dedicated to the men, held on 19 November in approximately 60 countries in Europe, North and Latin America, and Asia. In Russia this holiday too, but there is also your. In some other countries also have special dates that are at least established for a purpose, gradually transformed into "Men's day".

National holidays

In many countries existed and continue to celebrate the holidays international men's dayDedicated to men and their role in society. For example, there is men's world day, established upon the initiative of the President of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev. It is celebrated annually on the first Saturday of November. But still not very popular.

In many countries, the main male day is a holiday which originally referred not to all representatives of the stronger sex. Over time he acquired the role and popularity. It's father's day, which is popular in a large number of countries from USA and Canada to China and Thailand. Dates vary - in some places this June and July, and somewhere in March or may. As mother's day is very popular celebration. And in this occasion I congratulate even those who have not yet become fathers in the power of youth. Just because they still support and support for gentle women.

which days women what menAnd in Iceland, for example, the spouse day - it is celebrated on January 19 and innext coming Friday. In Mongolia in mid-July have Nadom - day warrior. This festival is attended by all men from the age of six. Still, with such a militant past of the country it would be strange if the history of the festival belonged to some other region. There is a similar men's day in Russia. Initially, his role was completely different, but now it transformed into a major holiday of the stronger sex.

Defender of the Fatherland Day

This holiday was established in 1922 and originally bore a completely different name. It was a "Day of red army and Navy", meaning it was dedicated to the military. Later it was renamed several times, and finally it acquired its present name, multiple military losing color.men's days of the week

Perhaps influenced by the proximity of the 8th of March, but February 23, somehow informally was perceived as the main male day in Russia and some countries of the former USSR. This is the time women give gifts to their spouses and friends, congratulations to my colleagues. In addition, since 2002, this day has officially become inoperative as of March 8. And although this holiday is gradually losing its original meaning, renaming is not planned, and it's probably the right decision, because all men are potential defenders of the Motherland and women. Although 23 February is not international men's day, in the CIS it is much more popular.

Professional events

world men's dayIf it seems that to honor the men only because of their belonging to the floor is not enough, it makes sense to note their knowledge and skills. Professional holidays are quite popular in Russia, and although the official large-scale events do not arrange, in a narrow circle it is always possible to congratulate my dear people and give them to understand how they are valued and loved.

Traditions

Whatever name this holiday, many countries have developed different traditions for its implementation. For example, for father's day in English-speaking countries, especially USA, are very kind - children prepare gifts, those who are studying in colleges or working away from the family, trying at least a couple days to escape to his hometown.

And in Germany during the same feast men going their company and do my favorite things - go fishing, play football or go picnic in nature - a huge number of options. The only condition is that men's day in RussiaNo wives and girls.

In Italy, men give this day wine. Seriously celebrate does not work, since this date ceased to be a holiday officially, but before it was a holiday. Women in this festival do not skimp on compliments and gifts to others.

Spirituality

Among the fortune tellers and those involved in incantations, omens and other things like that, there is a separation of some procedures. There is even such a thing as women's and men's days of the week. Reception fortune-tellers, and men reading the conspiracy must depend on the floor asking for and purpose of action. So which days are for men? Traditionally, these include Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and the second, respectively, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. This means that a woman who wants to attract good fortune, you have to read conspiracy into your day, but if her goal is to find a marriage partner in male.

Conclusion

Despite the fact that in recent decades gender roles have become highly conditional, people still need to remember who they are, not in opposition to the opposite sex. Women and men need each other and complement each other. And remember that you must always, not only in the days of the gender of the holidays. After giving his mate a warm, care and love can and should be constantly, not only in honor of some anniversary.
