Don’t ask me to celebrate Women’s Day. Don’t offer me ten - TopicsExpress



          

Don’t ask me to celebrate Women’s Day. Don’t offer me ten per cent off beauty products or a free glass of cheap bubbly. Don’t even ask me to commemorate the historic women’s march on the Union buildings – a milestone event whose noble essence has been sold down the river by leaders who are eager to claim some sort of retrospective credit for it, but don’t even pretend to honour its values. Last year, I was in an epic rage. This year, I’m in despair. Because the front page headlines the last few days have been about baby rape – AGAIN. Because yesterday’s headline was “W. Cape cop ‘murdered wife’”.
