Remember when the Dalth Emad part of town was the designated area for business women and their paying customers ? <BR/> Whats even worse is that "business" isn't the only "business" happening all around town .It is disturbing to be driving around town and see drug dealers selling drugs out in the open , thinking no one will recognize what they are doing !Which one is the worse is hard to say , but this is for sure , if the men didn't buy anything, stayed home with their families as they want their women to do , then the "business people" would go out of business !on the edgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10587819346285495087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36645781.post-41456661448965255602007-10-31T10:20:00.000-05:002007-10-31T10:20:00.000-05:00That was quite a true presentation of our state of affairs. We tend not to face the obvious and hide our heads under the sand. I agree with you, things must be presented as they are to our children, what's right and what's wrong, and to remember always that not to look at what is wrong dosen't make it disappear. Otherwise, we just continue to be the hypocrites that we are.Gherianihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04349688517848959878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36645781.post-24998386352940017042007-10-29T10:00:00.000-05:002007-10-29T10:00:00.000-05:00Thank you both for your support. This was a big deal for me while living in Libya. I sometimes had to go shopping alone and would get harassed BAD. I wasn't looking at or taking to ANYONE and they would still follow me. Sometimes I would leave the house for some fresh air and come home sicker than when I left.Rose Budhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05521834184969131405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36645781.post-51608747778647525142007-10-29T07:59:00.000-05:002007-10-29T07:59:00.000-05:00Salam Rose Bud,<BR/>Haven't read Khadijateri's piece yet, but will.
