English Expressions for Women (Advanced Vocabulary on Women's Issues)

Learn how to celebrate women’s achievements and talk about issues that are important to women around the world - hear three women’s stories from the Confident English Community.

You likely already know the history of International Women’s Day, but let’s discuss it in English so you can learn some key vocabulary related to women’s issues.

This day is celebrated around the world to honor social, economic, cultural, and political achievements by women as well as to highlight ongoing issues including equality and discrimination.

It started in the early 1900s with women becoming more vocal about inequality and, 1908, women marched in New York City demanding better pay and better working conditions.

Just a few years later, in 1911, this day official became an International Women’s Day with rallies in Austria, Denmark, Switzerland, and Germany.

Through the last century, events have expanded globally and the United Nations (UN) has its official 2030 Agenda to encourage women’s equality, rights, and empowerment around the world.

This year, in the United States, there are parades, rallies, conferences, speeches, award ceremonies and much more scheduled all over the country to celebrate women. There is also a national strike called A Day Without Women to raise awareness of the socio-economic value women have, although many still struggle with inequality, job insecurity, and discrimination.
