My late ex- and I were offered $20,000 in 1972 for our 10 year-old daughter by one of the Arab princes...

Needless to say, we declined. I would not even GO to Saudi Arabia because of the repression of women as human beings. They are, in most Islamic countries, "chattel."

$20,000.00? Sheesh the most my dad was ever offered for me was six cows. :)

Chattle is to kind a word for it. It really is another world there, and not a very nice one from what I hear.
