I don't see any good reason to celebrate International Women's Day. NASA Astronaut, Lisa Nowak, has been reported to be fired. Some American teacher has been charged with a sex crime with a 16 yr. old girl. Egyptian feminist, Nawal al-Saadawi, is being sued in her homeland, so she's taking temporary residence in Brussels. In Afghanistan, women serving in the coalition forces are celebrating but most of the country is in turmoil and women still aren't safe. I don't think foreign involvment in the Middle East have helped in women's right there. Better progress seems to come from women who actually live there.
