International Women’s Day gives us the opportunity to consider the current state of Gender Equality. Specifically, asking questions related to standards; equality ‘of’ what? equal ‘to’ whom?. Instead of renewing or maintaining contracts of tolerance or broadening the scope of who participates in an economy of power exchange, why not all together reconsider the standards under which we currently operate. Why recognize these contracts? Why participate in their exchange? The gender ‘problem’, historically or otherwise, is indicative of inconsistancies and complications with a moral system. That moral system, if we are serious about rectifying major problems that we attribute ’days’ to, is what requires upheaval.
