Iraqi women pay for low self-esteem of Iraqi men - big time.

Amal was once my neighbor in Iraq. My childhood friend is depressed, but she is not the only one since most of her sisters - the women of Iraq - have been forced to wear the hijab and more. Cajoled, shamed and threatened, the women of Iraq have been draped in black. Iraqi men have seen to that.
Let us hope that very soon the people of Iraq, especially the men, decide that a new day has dawned and that they no longer have to paint their hopes and dreams - their mothers, wives, sisters, cousins and daughters - black. |
