I would have to say the problems of women in industrialized more progressive nations dwarf in comparison to those our sisters are facing in third world and non-Democratic societies.The rampant starvation, disease and impoverished conditions of women in many of the African nations is a real travesty.

Adding ‘haven’t come across this ever’. |
