International Women's Day in Russia

International women's day was first celebrated in russia in 19 13, on the last week end in february. By 19 16, they had gone from supporting the czar and supporting the war to opposing the czer and opposing the war. No feminist could stomach the idea of losing the war to germany and then having a german army subsequently invade and occupy the country. Women do have a special opposition to occupying foreign armies for obvious reasons as rape and abuse has historically been one of the first things that all conquering armies throughout history have considered their spoils of war.
