Interesting development in Afghanistan . . .

Interesting story, sounds like there is at least some sort of a push for equality out there but also sounds like its going to be a long hard road. 300 woman protesting for equal rights to 1,000 odd protesting against (including some women).

The law sounds pretty medieval Shiite women must stay at home leaving only with permission from their husband and most have sex with him when ever he wants....

Does make me realise how precious our freedoms are....
