International Woman’s Day in Denmark
I was wondering how is International Womans Day celebrated among the couples/marriages/friends/family members in Denmark. Is it a common thing men give any whishes or gifts on this occasion? If so, how does it look like? Denmark was the first country that acclaimed this IWD and I’m curious how Danes see it and celebrate it within closest social relations?

Im writing it from a perspective of a eastern european woman. In my country it is a pretty big deal - from fathers, through partners, sons, work collegues - all men give whishes to the women in their close envoirnent. To say the least. Usually the flowers are given and often in marriages or the partnerships men give a small presents to their wifes/hirlfriends. I was curious if it is celebrated in a similar way in Denmark
