HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY! 🌹 The person in the picture is the Prime Minister of Finland, Sanna Marin (35 yrs) - the youngest female PM in the world. (If she is a good politician or not is another question). Women got equal rights as men to vote in 1906. In 1980 we got the first female Minister of Defence, Elisabeth Rehn. Our first female President, Tarja Halonen, in 2000. There are many strong women in our country. The backside of the coin is that we have among the highest rates of domestic violence in all of Europe. We have been criticized by EU for that. I feel very safe in the streets, especially where I live on the countryside. I take evening walks alone. But there's sadly a lot of unsafety in homes....
