This Comedian Is Responding To The Sad Cases On Twitter Asking Why There’s ‘No International Men’s Day’

WHY IS THERE NO INTERNATIONAL MEN'S DAY?

It's a question that echoes through the slightly more stupid corridors of Twitter on March 8 every year, as those with no access to Google – and a very scant understanding of gender equality – demand to know how we could possibly celebrate women for one day out of 365.

Thankfully, the amazing Richard Herring is on hand – as he is on this day every year – to set the record straight.

So polite...

Almost never. Only annually. On Nov 19. But your point is good. RT @OllieeColledge: Intl woman's day, there's never a intl men's days????

The baby sounds a bit easier tbh

If I can cope with a 1 year old baby then I can easily cope with 10,000 stupid people asking the same question.
