DEEP DIVE
August 1st is National Girlfriends Day or #NationalGirlfriendsDay. This social media holiday encourages people to appreciate their girlfriends online and off. There is some debate online regarding who the day is actually supposed to be about – romantic girlfriends, platonic girlfriends, girlfriends who have girlfriends, or girlfriends who have boyfriends. However, all types of girlfriends are (rightfully) being celebrated on this day.
