The sale and exchange of women as goods is rampant in Afghanistan's eastern Nangarhar province with as many as two women traded per day, according to the findings of a sociology researcher.
In a report obtained by TOLOnews, researcher Assadullah Ahmadi stated that he found some women had been traded up to five times in three Nangarhar districts – Rodat, Mohmand, and Shinwar – as part of the socially-accepted use of wives and daughters as possessions.

So what does it matter? After many American lives lost and billions upon billions of US taxpayer dollars “invested”, that country is still the societal cesspool it always was. Who cares?
There is no value added by Afghanistan to the furtherance of the human condition on earth. None at all. A perpertual 2nd century country. Nuke it from orbit.
For all our troubles...I am glad to live here in the United States.
Whole swaths of the Koran would have to be changed to stop any of this evil. Let them waddle in their own filth.
Do they use Craigslist?
Reversion to historical human societal norms. Coming the USA in the future, no doubt. Menendez and his ilk will love it.

The probably sell the women as beasts of burden. Little boys are much more valuable.
Well, that’s okay with our liberal oppressives here, for several reasons:
1. They’re not Republicans doing the trading.
2. these women are far away.
3. They don’t vote.
4. They’re probably little brown people.
