THOUSANDS of Spaniards will take to the streets today as part of protests for International Women’s Day.
Despite recent reports that 44% of Spanish men believe equality has ‘gone too far’, women across Spain will call for more action today, March 8.
Young and old will fill the streets of 26 major cities including Malaga, Seville, Madrid, Granada, Barcelona, Valencia, Cadiz and Mallorca.
They will march for an end to gendered violence, equal pay, protection of sex workers and more.
