It’s March 8th, International Women’s Day!
And speaking of women, here’s a Soviet cartoon from 1974 that you definitely should watch. At first I thought was a really strange cartoon, but by the end, I was converted.

I just can’t get over how much women are objectified in Russia (have you been on S7 airlines?), but I do admit, that cartoon is pretty hilarious. I love old Soviet cartoons.

About S7- I don’t think so. Do tell!
