Severing the Chains


Below picture friends, in English and Arabic, uniquely captures the ongoing, amoral and seemingly never-ending struggle of women around the globe.

I think it's a good graphic portrayal of the burdens many women labor under, and not just in the Middle East.  I am reminded of some of the absurdly stupid comments about women and pregnancy that have been made recently in the United States.  And of some of the comments that were made during the hearings on rape in the US military.  One Senator actually referred to "raging hormones," as the work of "nature."

I say, it is time, way past time, for these chains to be ended!
