    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 now seem to, 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 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
