The idea of having an international women's day is to celebrate the successes of women and to spread the message of progressing women's rights, helping us towards a more equal society.
Men honestly don't need that. Male privilege is very much still deep-rooted and this isn't about "let both genders have days!!1 equality", as men have not faced oppression yet women have. It's like asking for an international straight people day. What purpose would that serve other than shove it in minorities' faces that their day is no longer special because straight people have one too now?
