Ok, since you asked @SrinjoyBose83 , a couple quick reactions to this piece by Dr. Bernard. First, it is obviously written from a position of previliage, by someone who hasn’t bothered 2 talk 2 many Afg women, or Af feminists, or listened 2 them, or has been to Af recently.https://twitter.com/SrinjoyBose83/status/1101214285823270912 …

D struggle 4 gender equality is long & difficult, & as evident n US, setbacks r inevitable. As an Af woman,I offer my support & compassion 2 all Americans who r fighting against misogyny & follow their resistance with admiration. I wud recommend d same 2 Dr. Bernard regarding Af.

Approaching International Women’s Day, let’s remember with humility that it isn’t only Western women & men who’ve contributed 2 universal ideas f justice & rights,human dignity & equality that Af women r fighting 4. U may not join d struggle,but it is unacceptable to belittle it.

A very mean article wth poor understanding by Cheryl Benard. Afghan women were better of until the 70s when d US showed up wth Jihad ideas to fight d Soviets. Now they r bidding women rights with a terrorist group in Qatar. She has so much hatred of AFG 4 longtime I do know why?
