I just got this e-mail and thought it was worth sharing.
There were 11 people hanging onto a rope that came down from a helicopter.
Ten were men and one was a woman. The rope was starting to fray, so they all agreed that one person should let go because if they didn't, the rope would break and everyone would die. No one could decide who should let go. The woman gave a really touching speech, saying how she would give up her life to save theirs, because women were used to giving up things for their husbands and children, giving into men, and that after all, men were the superior sex and must be saved at all costs. When she finished speaking, all the men clapped.
