Life Is Much Simpler In Other Parts Of The World
Life is much simpler in other parts of the world.
A story of the advances of women in achieving equality throughout the world.
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

Ms. Walters approached one of the women and said, "This is marvellous, can
you tell the free world just what enabled women here to achieve this reversal of
roles?"
"Land mines," said the Kuwaiti woman.
