And what exactly is that tradition? You didn't say much so I can't reply. We have some chauvinistics traditions as well...
Well, on the easter monday one can visit women and spank them with a "braided whip made from pussywillow twigs", thus driving diseases out of their bodies. And he even gets the eggs as a reward
I don't know if it's also common in other countries, I only know the Americans were quite surprised about this tradition
