Actor Tamer Hasssan and comedian Andrew Doyle exchanged dialogues on the occasion of International Men’s Day as the latter thinks it’s just a reaction to Women’s Day, on the show Good Morning Britain.
Andrew insisted the event is simply a reaction to Women’s Day, he went on to say that Fathers Day feels like a retort to Mothers Day.
“I am thinking of the way we've divided up our culture and I think that's what the International Men's and Women's Day are,” said Andrew.
“Fathers Day feels like a reaction to Mothers Day in same way that Men's day feels like a reaction to International Women's Day,” he added.
Tamer while sharing his views emphasized that men should be celebrated for their accomplishments.
Calling himself old-fashioned Tamer said: “I think men should be celebrated for what they do. Is there a divide? I don't think there is a divide.”
“When a man wakes up in the morning and he's been an alcoholic and he says 'I'm not gonna drink today, for my family, I'm going to be better today.' I think that should be celebrated,” he added.
Netizens were soon to respond to GMB’s guests as one said: “I dont think there should be an international day for anything. We should celebrate each other and ourselves every day."
Another tweeted : "#GMB international mens day means nothing really does it”.
