Barbara Walters did a story on gender roles in Kuwait
several years before the Gulf War. She noted then that
women customarily walked about 10 feet behind their
husbands. She returned to Kuwait recently and observed
that the men now walked several yards behind their
wives.

Ms. Walters approached one of the women and said,
