        @WSJ Woman are so far ahead & yet so very far behind. Some 'traditions' need to be broken if they effectively hurt humanity in the process.

        @WSJ huh, I would think being the wife of a rapist was a bit more "shaming" than being a widow... Compassion for the victim?

        @WSJ Sad but I think its probably more sad that she is in denial of what got her in this position. Denying the truth won't get her very far.
