Wish men around you with some motivational Men’s Day quotes. November 19th every year is celebrated as International Men’s Day, to bring emphasis on gender equality and non-discrimination based on gender differences. It encourages us to talk about men’s physical and mental health issues. We typically celebrate this day by appreciating men for their contributions to society in various fields like education, science and technology, theatre or cinema, arts, philosophy, and many more. In the present media structure, men have entered a harsh light, with negative attributes associated with them. This day serves as a reminder that men aren’t all bad and that women empowerment does not indicate the weakening of men, but rather a platform of equality for all genders.

International Men’s Day

The celebration of men’s day motivates them to become the best men and role models for everyone who looks up to them. Men’s day was started in February 1992 by Thomas Oaster; however, Dr Jerome Teelucksingh, a history lecturer at the University of the West Indies in Trinidad and Tobago, founded the International Men’s Day project on November 19, 1999.
