Gender Bias

Gender Bias
A journalist had done a story on gender roles in Kuwait several years
before the Gulf War, and 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. She
approached one of the women for an explanation. "This is marvelous,"
said the journalist. "What enabled women here to achieve this reversal
of roles?"
One Kuwaiti woman replied, "Land mines"
