RIGHT now, thousands of men are typing a few words into Google.

No, it’s not “Support International Women’s Day”. It’s “When is International Men’s Day?”

There are three times more searches for IMD today than at any other time, including – you’ve guessed it – on the day itself.

Not content with dominating proceedings for 364 days a year, the male of the species is so outraged at having to celebrate women today, they can’t wait to find out which day is officially all about them.

Lads, let me save you the bother. International Me's Day is the 19th of November.

Before the moaning starts, it’s fine for men to have their own day. But March 8 is ours – for good reason.

In 2017, 139 women in the UK died as a result of male violence – 105 killed by people they knew and 58 victims of “overkill”, murders so violent that multiple methods are used.

As for the gender pay gap, the TUC revealed this week women work “for free” for the first two months of the year, and their earnings are on average 17.9 per cent lower than men working in the same organisation.

The fight for equality is far from over. But someone needs to tell Piers Morgan.

The GMB presenter, a poster boy for disgruntled gammons everywhere, has been howling with rage about Emmerdale’s female-led IWD episode, calling it “PC-crazed poppycock”.

But why are Piers – and men like him – so furious?

Somehow they’ve come to see themselves as the underdog.

Piers, comic Jim Davidson and all those others ranting about BBC Newcastle “banning” men for the day view International Women's Day as an attack on them.

The fear is by supporting women’s rights we might be eroding theirs.

The same band of keyboard warriors also object to “lengthy” maternity leaves, women’s marches and - heaven forbid - Race for Life.

There seems to be a suspicion there, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that we have it easy. That once the kids arrive, they’re the ones being made to rush home and feed the baby while we’ve had our feet up all day watching daytime TV.

Wasn’t it simpler when they could just take the dog to the pub for a swift pint or two after work?

Now, there’s a rise in commentators like Jordan Peterson telling them it’s okay to feel like this and hanker after the days when men brought home the bacon and women knew their place.

Peterson thinks there is a “crisis in masculinity” - and that women are only marriage material if they’re “conscientious and agreeable”.

By that I think he means we should be happy to let our menfolk off the washing up duties.

Remember that recent tweet telling us how to be beautiful?

The author, Alexander JA Cortes, signed off saying, “Only a man can tell a woman how to act.”

Sadly, some men still want to believe that.

No wonder they can’t even let us have one day of the year to ourselves.
