1) Hangovers have plagued humans throughout history as a side effect of alcohol consumption. While drinking provides temporary relief and pleasure, it often leads to headaches, nausea, and general misery upon waking.
2) The article discusses various scientific theories for what causes hangover symptoms, including dehydration, low blood sugar, inflammation, and toxic chemicals released by the body to break down alcohol.
3) There is no universally agreed upon cure for hangovers, but folk remedies involving further alcohol consumption ("hair of the dog") or elaborate mixed drink recipes are commonly attempted to ease symptoms.

The author dreams of a more just world where men and women work together for gender equality.

It describes how as a young child, she witnessed the rise of the new Islamic regime in Iran, the imposition of mandatory hijab, and increasing social restrictions. Her family was directly affected through her father's work in journalism being made dangerous, her mother's arrest for activism, and her own arrest for infractions of hijab rules as a teenager. The revolution forever altered her childhood and path in life, ultimately leading her to flee Iran as a young adult to seek refuge and freedom in Canada.
Afghanistan has a population of about 38 million people, with only 1/4 living in urban areas like Kabul. It is 99% Muslim, with 84% Sunni and 15% Shia. There is only one doctor per 5,000 people. Women's rights are severely limited - 44 is the average life expectancy for women, 30% of girls access education, and every 30 minutes a woman dies during childbirth. Under Taliban rule from 1996-2001, women were banned from work and education and forced to wear the burqa in public. The resurgence of the Taliban has again restricted girls' education, with one school being attacked with acid by men on motorcycles.

Girl-child beading is a cultural practice among the Samburu community in Kenya where young girls as young as 9 are engaged in relationships with older men, signified by the placement of beads around their necks. This practice amounts to sexual slavery and puts the girls at risk of health issues and ends their education. It is considered a rite of passage but denies the girls' basic human rights.

The document summarizes information about the Taliban from various online sources. It describes the Taliban as a predominantly Pashtun Islamic fundamentalist political movement and militia group that ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. The Taliban enforced a strict interpretation of Sharia law, severely restricting activities of women and imposing harsh punishments on those who violated their rules. Women faced severe limits on education, employment and freedom of movement, and faced harsh punishment for violations.

One such woman, Hanifa, lost her husband four years ago and is left caring for her six children alone without support. She says she feels like killing herself due to her desperate situation. Afghanistan's women's affairs minister calls for men to change their mindsets towards women in the male-dominated country. Under Taliban rule, women faced severe restrictions on activities and faced violent punishments for infractions of the strict laws.
Comparison of women in the past and presentSassy Nasa
Women's roles have significantly changed from the past to the present. In the past, women were subservient to men and had few rights. They could not own property, make major family decisions, get an education, work outside the home, or inherit wealth. In the present, women have gained greater independence, opportunities, and legal rights. They can now get an education, work in various fields, voice their opinions, and divorce. However, full equality has yet to be achieved as traditional gender roles still influence society. The document suggests women may continue improving their roles and one day rule nations instead of just supporting men.

The document discusses hijab (veil) for Muslim women according to Islamic law. It states that hijab is mandatory for women based on seven verses in the Quran and discussions in major hadith texts. Hijab protects women's modesty and prevents illicit gazes. However, some argue that hijab imprisons women. The document responds that hijab allows women to fulfill domestic responsibilities with dignity while also permitting going out of the home for necessities. Not wearing hijab could lead to increased societal problems and diseases. Islam teaches clear roles and domains for both men and women in society.

5. The BURKA *
It was introduced in AFGHANISTAN in the early
twentieth century, during the HABIBULLA era
(1901-1919), who imposed its use to his 200
women harem, in order to avoid tempting men
staring at their facial beauty.
They were made of silk and delicate embroidery,
Habibulla’s princesses even wore the burkas
embroidered with golden threads. Thus the
burka had become a luxury garment worn by
women of leisure. At the same time they would
distance themselves from ordinary people and
stop them from staring.
*It is believed the burka’s origin dates back to the
Achaemenid dynasty of the Persian Empire
founded by Cyrus II (6th century BC).
And according to some writings dating back to
the 13th century BC, (which were discovered in
Assyria) mentioned the wearing of the Burka. At
that time the Muslim religion did not exist.
6. Historically, it is the proper garment of the Pashtun tribes who are great believers
and supporters of the burka. In fact when King Amanullah, who succeeded
Habibulla, tried to modernize the country by abolishing the burka, and worst still
when his wife the queen Soraya Tarzi appeared without the burka, it created a big
scandal. Unfortunately his attempts to Westernize Afghanistan had created a
rebellious opposition with the Pashtun tribes. Finally he was forced to abdicate
and flee to India in 1929.

9. After the departure of the Soviets in Afghanistan the Taliban* came to power and
the wearing of the “Full Burka” became mandatory, thus imposing a garment that
can guarantee control over a woman’s body, since it covers the eyes with a thick
veil which prevents the wearer to see normally. And because the canvas grid has
a limited peripheral vision women become dependent on others to effectively
move around, specially in open areas.
*Taliban: Islamic fundamentalist group, emerged from the koranic schools in
.
Pakistan. The majority of them are ethnic Pashtun.
10. One of the objectives of the thick veil
is to prevent the face and eyes to be
visible.
The "burka" exerts a strong
pressure on the head (it weighs
about 7 kg), adding to the fatigue of
the walk.
The length of the garment goes
down to their feet, not only to cover
the body, but also to add greater
displacement difficulties, especially
to prevent them from running.
11.

13. The burka is not an actual garment, it is a canvas prison that submits women not
to clearly see where they are headed and can’t see more than a metre away from
their sight. It’s like looking through a pair of glasses where vision all around is
blurred. The eyes of these women are prisoners like their bodies.
A leader of the clandestine organization of Afghan women RAWA *, confirms
these views when she says:
"It's like a prison that keeps you warm and isolated. The women have troubles
recognise each other. Those who need glasses can’t use them. It’s as if they were
blind. The mesh fabric that covers their eyes is purposely made sufficiently thick
to avoid women enlarging them. Some women are beaten, because they have
enlarged the holes. For women having to wear it, has been a trauma since it is a
matter of humiliation, additionally it affects all movements as well as their sight.”
Often, when crossing the streets, because of their low visibility many have been
involved in serious accidents leading to many deaths.
* RAWA: A group of intellectual women who, under the leadership of
Meena Keshwar, in 1977 have founded the Revolutionary Association of
Afghan women. The ongoing social work and the fight against the
fundamentalists has cost her, her life. On the 2nd of April 1987 she was
assassinated by the agents of the Afghan secret police and their
fundamentalist’s accomplices in Quetta, Pakistan.

16. •
The Taliban regime is an ultra-radical and fundamentalist regime imposing
very taxing demands on women such as, no singing, no dancing or playing of
musical instruments, no sports, no employment, no schooling and even not
allowed flying kites which is Afghans national pastime, they are also forbidden
to walk alone in the streets and not to receive medical assistance except in
some dislocated hospitals without water, without electricity or operating
rooms, where they go only to die.
•
There are only male physicians practicing in hospitals, but they are not
allowed to treat nor operate on women.
27. • When a woman is pregnant, the Afghans say she is
sick. 97% of Afghan women give birth at home, because
they are forbidden to call male doctors, and they almost
never have means of transportation to take them to a
medical care centre.
• Malalai Maternity is surrounded by a concrete
wall built by the Taliban, with two little
windows. And on the other side are their
husbands. They may talk with their wives
through small windows.
31. A recent report by
“Physicians for Human
Rights" stated that 40% of
Afghan women in their
productive age die of
childbirth complications.
32. Under the burka the child can’t see his mother’s gaze, her
face doesn’t exist, her voice is changed and there is no skin
contact
33. Also during breastfeeding, the
mother can’t see her child’s
expressions.
It negates the basic bindings
between mother and child.
34.
35.
36. When the Taliban forces captured Kabul on 27th September 1996, they suppressed women
from their civil rights, taking away their education entitlements and confined them to their
homes. The mandatory wearing of the burka became one of the most compelling symbols of
the repression exercised on women by the new regime.
When in early Kabul city an emerging civil society where modern women had just began to
enjoy an interesting social status, was removed with a stroke of the pen by the Taliban.
Among tens of thousands of women working in the public services had been sent home,
there were 7790 female teachers in schools, 63 schools have been closed in Kabul. 65% of
the teaching staff, 40% of school children and almost half of the 7,000 university students
were female.
The leap into the past was overwhelming, from the twentieth century to the medieval age.
No one dare challenge the mulla Mohammed Omar who was the Taliban leader. The coup
was a brutal human and cultural result.
46. Their miserable life is lived with constant threats and fear of punishment if they
break a simple rule.
With young guards working for the Ministry for the Promotion of Virtue and
Prevention of Vice, patrolling the streets with whips, sticks and Kalashnikovs
(riffles), spotting women wearing makeup, exposing their faces or bursting out
with laughter etc…; they are obliged to take them in without any legal defence,
and some of the penalties are stoning, amputation, torture, floggings or public
executions.

51. After seven years since the
invasion by the United States,
and with an exponential growth
of armed conflict, we can state
categorically that the living
conditions of women and girls
in Afghanistan today are
dreadful, and that not much has
changed for them, despite the
promises of the international
community, not only in areas
south and east controlled by
the Taliban, but also in many of
the places dominated by the
international coalition, like
Helmad, under British control.
52. Despite the utopian equality of the new constitution of 2004, women can still be
purchased, sold or be as part of an inheritance. As in the days of the Taliban, forced
marriages continue, and domestic violence (due to lack of work). There is a city where
women leave their homes only twice in their lifetime, when they get married and go to
live with their husbands, and when they die.
During 2007, 165 women victims of violence have tried to commit suicide. 87% of Afghans
suffer domestic violence. Half the complaints are due to sexual abuse. Cases of violence
against women and young girls, has increased by 40% over the same period the previous
year (2007). 60% of women are victims of forced marriages. Half of the marriages are young
teenagers who have not reached 16 yet. (even thought the law prohibits these marriages).
Many girls are given as compensation to a dispute, to a debt or a crime under tribal law, also
because of the extreme poverty plaguing the country. A father can get between 600€ and
1500€ for his daughter, which is the equivalent of three years' salary for a worker.
53. Similarly to the times of the Taliban, the faded blue burka is still colouring the
streets and towns of Afghanistan. (Although now with synthetic fabrics the colour
doesn’t fade as much) The judging of women in public (especially stoning) is the
order of the day.
The nightmare of women is having an existence without basic rights and
fundamentals, in an impoverished country, ruined by the war which lasted over
twenty years, and without infrastructure, with persistent droughts, a country full
of landmines, toped by the difficulties of finding food and shelter, and with most
of their men enlisted in the forces. Many of the educated or professional class of
people have fled or are dead.
54. There are thousands of widows whose only resources is to beg in the streets, or
prostitute themselves, many go crazy, or commit suicide; this is because the law
denies them the inheritance of their deceased husbands. Thousands of women
every day can only afford to eat and feed their children on bread and tea. Hurts
them having to see their daughters stay locked up at home and without education,
and to see their sons physically kidnapped, or morally induced to serve in the
armed forces.
55. In desperation many women commit suicide. This is very common with widows,
since without their spouse they are not allowed to go out and are not allowed to
work thus they can’t feed their children.
The public hospital in Herat, a city where women suicide by fire is very common,
in 2005 has treated 90 women who tried to burn themselves to death.
Zahra, 20 years married was beaten daily by her
husband, was also forbidden to see her family;
was so depressed she poured cooking oil over
herself and lit it up.
She survived and legally divorced her husband,
now she lives with her mother. She lost mobility of
her neck from the cicatrices left by the fire.
56.
57. * Would it be too much to hope, for the
male populations not to be so lethargic
and actively participate against gender
violence, by campaigning, in
demonstrations and in many other ways
together with women?
* Will it be possible for men in unison
with women to stand up against the
aggressors and fight for justice and
individual rights for a fair gender
equality?
58. I dream that the sufferings of the many
concealed and disguised women of,
Afghanistan, Palestine, Morocco, and
Africa cease and that justice reigns
throughout all the lands where
presently, being female is synonymous
with disgrace.
I dream of a more just and egalitarian
world, joined by men to be active in this
conflict where there are neither
winners nor losers. For a hopeful future
where all of our children (boys and
girls) have learned the basis of mutual
respect for each other without
discrimination.
Would it be Utopia?
