Today is International Women's Day. (Who knew?)
In light of that, I think this video with the Spanish Novela Hunk, Rafael Amaya (La Reina del Sur) is apropo. It's in Spanish and he's "selling" a service called "Para Ella" (For Her).
He's happy to pick up the house, fold laundry just the way "she" likes it, dust in those hard to reach places, rub her feet, arrange her shoes, vacuum, and cuddle. Yes, it's really a fantasy, but that's not important right now.
Even if you don't speak Spanish, you'll totally enjoy this. It may be the best minute and 22 seconds you'll spend today.
Excuse me while I call Eric. "Hi Honey, have you read my blog today? (hint, hint)"
Let the celebration begin!
Thanks to NBC Universal and mun2.
This is a genius business idea….if only it were real! hahaa
Ooo – I do like them tall, dark and handsome! And, btw, how great was her toenail polish??? Thanks for the giggle 🙂
Oh my! I like that fantasy world- where do I sign up? BB2U
“International Women’s Day first emerged from the activities of labour movements at the turn of the twentieth century in North America and across Europe.””1909: The first National Woman’s Day was observed in the United States on 28 February. The Socialist Party of America designated this day in honour of the 1908 garment workers’ strike in New York, where women protested against working conditions.”
“1910: The Socialist International, meeting in Copenhagen, established a Women’s Day, international in character, to honour the movement for women’s rights and to build support for achieving universal suffrage for women. The proposal was greeted with unanimous approval by the conference of over 100 women from 17 countries, which included the first three women elected to the Finnish Parliament. No fixed date was selected for the observance.”
And so on. The above are direct quotes from the United Nations’ Women Watch website. Yes, you’re right: Who knew?
It totally would be! LOL!
Glad you enjoyed it!I love that you don’t need to speak Spanish to appreciate the genius of this (and the beauty of Rafael Amaya).
Hilarious, right? =D
Thanks for sharing that bit of history, Bill.I knew it started as a socialist observance. Which is why I wanted to make it something more tongue-in-cheek post.
Communists, of course, are not known for their sense of humor. (I hope I offended some socialists by posting this!)
Besos,

Thank you for your reply.Socialists get it right sometimes. Maybe not in economics, but for sure they do in social issues. Women’s causes is one of them.
Best of everything,
Bill
Yes this is the best way to celebrate International Women’s day. Women have been treated badly in past and taken as crap. But honestly women are very respectful and deserve to be respected in any condition.
