...status quo needs to change and men and women need to work side-by-side to change it. It’s a matter of fairness, but more than that, it’s a matter of self-interest. Bringing more women to the table will add fresh perspectives and facilitate better decision. And including more women sure beats paying out multi-million-dollar sex discrimination suits...

Add to that cynicism and disappointment, a few targeted assassinations, a segregation wall, a corrupt leadership, no work, militants demanding pay for your protection, and, finally, a checkpoint soldier with an ugly smile ordering you to dance. If there is really a God up there, He must have been...
