How to make compliments in Russian

Tomorrow is an International Woman’s Day. It is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. In ex-USSR countries it lost its political meaning and is widely celebrated as a day of spring, love, warmth and all women. During this day all men remind their women how they love them and thank women for who they are. Mothers, sisters, daughters, friends, lovers or wives are given flowers and presents and this day was made as a government holiday so nobody works.
