In the Land of Invisible Women

This article was incredibly eye opening because of its honesty of how life is for women in Yemen. I think that the way women are treated as "business deals" is disgusting and degrading. While I worry about college and potential career paths the typical girl living in Yemen is most likely concerned about pleasing her husband both domestically and sexually. Additionally, in this society the women have little to no opportunity of success while the men are free to pursue anything they please. This article has inspired me to take action and bring awareness to this injustice. I would love to one day work with these women in rebuilding their lives, freely and independently.  I recognize how lucky I am to have been born in America and believe it is only right to give back in some way.
