The reason for choosing Sunday is to avoid female workers having to take leave to participate in the event, which would put extra financial burden on them. From September 9 to 15, 1921, the Second International Conference of Communist Women was held in Moscow, with 82 representatives from 28 countries attending the conference. At the meeting, Bulgarian female communists suggested that March 8 of each year be designated as International Women's Day in order to commemorate the heroic struggle of Russian women workers in the February Revolution of 1917. The Second International Conference of Communist Women adopted this proposal and passed a resolution to designate March 8 as International Women's Day. What is the origin of International Women’s Day?International Women's Day originated from a series of major events in the women's movement in the early 20th century. These events include: in 1909, American socialists designated February 28 as National Women's Day; in 1910, at the Copenhagen Conference of the Second International, more than 100 women representatives from 17 countries, led by Clara Zetkin, planned to establish International Women's Day, but did not specify an exact date; on March 19, 1911, more than 1 million women in Austria, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland and other countries gathered to celebrate International Women's Day; on the last Sunday of February 1913, Russian women celebrated their International Women's Day by holding demonstrations against the First World War; on March 8, 1914, women in many European countries held anti-war demonstrations; on March 8, 1917 (February 23 in the Russian calendar), in order to commemorate the nearly 2 million Russian women who died in World War I, Russian women went on strike, which kicked off the "February Revolution". Four days later, the Tsar was forced to abdicate and the provisional government announced that women would be granted the right to vote.It can be said that it was this series of feminist movements that took place in Europe and America in the early 20th century that jointly led to the birth of International Women’s Day on March 8, rather than the assumption that International Women’s Day is just a legacy of the international communist movement.
