Kuwaiti Women
Several years before the Gulf War, a female journalist did a story on
gender roles in Kuwait. She noted that there it was customary for
women to walk 10 feet behind their husbands.
After the war, she returned to Kuwait and was pleased to observe that
now the men walked 10 feet behind their wives. She approached a woman
at the airport and asked, "What enabled Kuwaiti women to achieve this
role reversal?"
The Kuwaiti woman replied, "Land mines."
