I think I'll give Inernational Womens day a miss, I walked through Piccadilly gardens in Manchester last night and saw banners on the railings pormoting it along with lesbian rights (what rights do they want? Ive got gay female friends who are professionals who are doing just fine without having to tell the world about their sexuality!) and rights to work for famale assylum seekers - all singing something along the lines of "we shall over come" ...oh dear :( If thats what its about its not for me...Besides women bang on about equal rights, lets start an international Mens day!
My other half buys me flowers all the time, he doesnt need an excuse..

I bought my chick a buttload of carnations and some chocolate. She was thrilled and I felt like a mensch. There's no harm in any of that.
Thats lovely, but you could do that any day of the year, just to show her that she's special :D
