007 takes a walk on the wild side

Maybe this article is more transgender than transcreation, but then it is international women’s day today.
At Wordbank we have been tweeting since yesterday on how to congratulate the ladies in your life in the relevant local language. As many readers will know, today in Russia is a day of flowers,  presents and congratulations to mothers, sisters, daughters, aunties etc.  Much as the celebrations will vary country-by-country, relative to the local history and culture, similarly the lifestyle, rights and expectations of women will vary depending on where they live.

Suffice to say that attitudes to women vary significantly across globe.

Today, however,  is a good opportunity for we men to consider for a moment the realities of life as  women.

James Bond -- who betterSo, whose eyes better to view this role than the renowned Mr Bond,  labelled as he is with a certain reputation in regard to women. Indeed, who better than Dame Judi Dench in the persona of  ‘M’ to be Mr Bond’s  inner voice of reason?
