  • The Reykjavik Woman's Strike refers to a historic event that took place in Iceland in 1975. On October 24, 1975, Icelandic women organized a massive strike to protest against gender inequality and demand equal rights in the workplace and society. This strike, often referred to as "Women's Day Off" or "The Long Friday," was a significant moment in the global women's rights movement.
    Around 90% of Iceland's female population participated in the strike. Women refused to work, both in their jobs and at home, taking to the streets to protest. This event drew considerable attention and helped highlight the importance of gender equality. In the wake of the strike, significant progress was made in Iceland toward gender equality, leading to legislative changes, including equal pay and representation for women in politics.
    This historic event is still celebrated today as an important milestone in the ongoing fight for gender equality. Iceland has consistently ranked high in global gender equality indices, owing much to the actions and impact of the Reykjavik Woman's Strike of 1975.

      They are solipsistic and entitled. Women do little better than men and in all honesty if men were to create artificial wombs women would be obsolete to us and society as a whole
