Soviet Red Army day or Russia's men's day?

Today is Soviet Red Army day. In modern Russia they celebrate it as "men's day " or army day. However, These Russians demonstrating for socialism carrying Stalin's portraits. Stalin against Putin? I am not sure how that works out, only a Russian will know.

(There were speeches against Gorbachev as well.)

No idea.
Apparently, There were 800,000 women who served in the Soviet Armed Forces during the war, which is roughly 3 percent of total military personnel.
