Within the last two centuries‚ society has made a tremendous push for gender equality. Up until very recently‚ over half of the world’s population had been relegated to a subservient role; the men – strong‚ brave‚ providers – dominated the women – delicate‚ naïve‚ caretakers. Even today in many of the underdeveloped nations of the world‚ women remain submissive. In Saudi Arabia‚ women may face death if they are caught driving‚ while in Afghanistan‚ the average woman has a life expectancy rate of

We all have peculiar family stories that have been estranged from familiarity‚ often for a good reason‚ but the story of Cam Lyman is one that surpasses all in utter obscurity. Although the tale only brushes my family indirectly‚ it is so fascinating‚ so shocking‚ that it has never been forgotten.
