March 8 is International Women's Day (US has its equivalent on the 26th of August) which celebrates the struggle for women's rights. Throughout history, many strong women had to rise against the odds and fight for their dreams and passions, equality and solidarity among men. Their bravery contributed to shaping today's world, and has to be remembered.
3月8日纪念女权斗争的国际妇女节（美国妇女节是8月26日）。历史上，很多坚强的女性不畏艰险奋起反抗，为了在男人的世界中实现梦想、激情、平等和团结而奋斗。她们的勇气铸就了今日的世界，理应为人记颂。
