Subject: Women who know their place...

WOMEN WHO KNOW THEIR PLACE ....... A point of view.

Barbara Walters, of 20/20, did a story on gender roles in Kabul ,
Afghanistan , several years before the Afghan conflict. She noted that
women customarily walked five paces behind their husbands.

She recently returned to Kabul and observed that women still walk
behind their husbands. Despite the overthrow of the oppressive Taliban
regime, the women are happy to maintain the old custom.

Ms. Walters approached one of the Afghani women and asked, 'Why do
you now seem happy with an old custom that you once tried so desperately
to change?'

The woman looked Ms. Walters straight in the eyes, and without
hesitation said, 'Land Mines.'

Moral of the story is (no matter what language you speak or where
you go):

BEHIND EVERY MAN, THERE'S A SMART WOMAN !

and all we ever were
just zeros and ones.
