ok good, one down but many more brutal sexist traditions like this one to go in much of rural Africa. I've saved that article because it puts things in perspective along the lines of country mouse vs. city mouse cultural divide problems worldwide. As in: there but for the grace of god I might have been born. Goes for India too. We've gone overboard with the global this way: our entertainment media depicts the upper classes of other cultures that are globally connected, in an attempt to propagandize that "we are all equal now", doesn't show the misery and backwardness that still exists in many rural areas enough. We don't see them in the media and we don't meet them in person because they are not the ones immigrating to other countries.

Hmmm, not sure who believes we're all equal now, or that villages disappeared, but no, I didn't know the widow custom was so widespread. A wonder they don't do it in the Bible Belt.
