Now these here Women-Folk really know their place.....



To All You Women Out Here:


Subject: Fwd: Women who know their place??

Ladies............take note:
Women who know their place, but the moral of the story doesn't change!


Barbara Walters of Television's 20/20 did a story on gender roles in Kabul,
Afghanistan, several years before the Afghan conflict. She noted that women
customarily walked 5 paces behind their husbands. She recently returned to
Kabul and observed that women still walk behind their husbands.


From Ms. Walter's vantage point, despite the overthrow of the oppressive
Taliban regime, the women now seem to walk even further back behind their
husbands and are happy to maintain the old custom.


Ms. Walters approached one of the Afghani women and asked, "Why do you now
seem happy with the 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: BEHIND EVERY MAN IS A SMART WOMAN!!
