    Thank you Simin jan for creating such a nice thread. I will translate some sources and put them here. We should tell the world that what it is all about.

    Hi everyone,

    According to Iranica, "Sepandarmazgan is the day for celebrating love, friendship and earth in the ancient Iranian culture. Celebrated on the 29th of Bahman in the Iranian calendar, which coincided with Feb. 18, the custom dates back to the Zoroastrian tradition. According to this ancient tradition, Sepandarmazgan was observed in the Great Persian Empire in 20th century BC. It is also the national title of Earth, which is the symbol of love and modesty. Persians have a rich culture with many great feasts that are associated with happiness and joy. In the feast of Sepandarmazgan, the Earth was worshiped and women were venerated. On this day, women and girls sat on a throne and men and boys had to obey them and present gifts. This custom reminded men to honor and respect women." (http://www.iran-daily.com/1388/12/2/...per_3622_6.pdf)

    Absolutely a feminist movement, started in ancient times, and I am so proud of it. I think every Iranian people should be proud of it.
