A heart-warming story of the advances of women in achieving equality
throughout the world...

Barbara Walters of 60 Minutes (USA) did a story on gender roles in Kabul
several years before the Afghan conflict. She noted that women
customarily walked about
ten paces behind their husbands. She returned to Kabul recently and
observed that the men now walked several paces behind their wives.

Ms Walters approached one of the Afghani women and said. "This is
marvelous. Can you tell the free world just what enabled women to
achieve this reversal of roles?"

"Land mines," said the woman.
