8/3 of this year was such a special day at work because we bought lots of beautiful roses and gifts to give to the female staff and to customers. The smiles on their faces is proof that they enjoyed the day.
What else can men do besides giving women flowers and gifts? A passionate kiss, a sweet comment whispered in their ear to wish them luck :) Anything else?

Tu, that's something I really loved about living in VN; we really celebrated int'l women's day! Here, no one even knew about it when I mentioned it! I miss getting flowers:)
I love your blog, it's very informational, and the pictures are WONDERFUL!
I'm getting very excited to travel to Vietnam!
Another very interesting blog! I would never have known how much the Vietnamese culture celebrates women...

Well, since you're asking, men could do more around the house, instead of letting the women do all the chores and expecting females to serve them. But I guess that would be too radical a change for the Vietnamese culture...
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww !!!!! what exactly do u do?!!
I loved this day in VN. It made me feel so special.
love the ao dai...
Cool! These special days... they're really good... it can really cheer someone right up!
First time I've heard of Women's Day. Wish we have that here. Faces of those women in the picture sure look very happy and pleased.
What men can give women...perhaps recognition
You wondered that what else women want for Women's Day? For me and most of my friends is that guys love and respect women with all their talent and creativity not only in 8th March but in the whole year as well...
By the way, why dont ya post some more pics of the massive but unique architectural style in Vietnam specialy in Saigon. That wouold make people impressive!

I forgot about it ;-). Most of the countries that celebrate women's day are current communist regime or former. I have friends who are from Russia also celebrate, but in Brussels, there are nothing like that. Instead they celebrate valentine big time but it isn't the same ;-))))
My husband said they have Women's Day in Yugoslavia as well, and in many Eastern European countries. Here in the U.S. we have Mother's Day and of course Valentine's Day, so women do get celebrated throughout the year.
Hi all, Thanks for all the comments. This is a special day for women in general and I'm glad to give flowers to staff.

How about a kick in the arse!!!
Hi Pip Squeak, I dont think its a good idea :)
To god knows: I totally agree with you. It is not a good idea at all. Woman’s arse is/are not for kicking. I am very sure of that.
To Pip Squeak : If you don’t know what to do with woman’s arse. Meet me up. You provide the woman’s; I provide my dexterity. I am sure you will learn a thing or two. For what it’s worth, woman’s arse is/are far more of use than you can envisage.

This year I bought a very nice gift for my mother.
Women should not have a day of their own, that's my humble opinion. Still many people are celebrating this day.

It's really good to see that people in Vietnam follow Women's day quite seriously, which is a good thing.
Happy Womens Day to everyone...Thanks for sharing with all of us....I will always look forward to here more from you...

It can't work as a matter of fact, that's what I suppose.
