Currently, many of the feminist revolts and demonstrations are being considered a party or celebration even by the protesters themselves and belonging to the movement. This causes many people to mark these important dates as 8M as one more holiday instead of a date to seriously claim for women's rights.
Isn't it better to have this type of atmosphere rather than anger and violence? Evidently, when there was a panel talk for International Women's Day (8 March) about women in art: 'Brutality and the female body: how can we reinvent female flesh', those getting to the event early were handed Bloody Mary cocktails!

Parties (maybe not too many cocktails!) and festivals rather than brutality and hate? As long as the message gets across.
It maybe isn't appropriate to mention the difference between the sexes, but do you think the lack of testosterone has something to do with women's events having this type of atmosphere? Surely more women are going to be attracted to getting involved in feminism if they do not encounter negative vibes when they join?
Elena Sánchez Pérez, could you please give an example of the revolts you mention?
The resignification is an important aim of feminisms. The advocacy of rights for the excluded can be effectively resignificated by giving joy to our vindications
