It was Roman policy to foster inter cultural marriage between the roman troops and the populations they just conquered. Centurions often were offered 'monetary' incentives (salt and oil really) to take the local women as spouses.The idea behind it is very clever: most people just don't go around killing family so at the end governing the conquered lands becomes easier and easier as generation and cultures get mixed.?
One face, one race.Good idea but sometimes this cultural exchange can backfire…There is a new educational revolution going on in America and it sounds like it's coming right from the Afghani Taliban culture. Many schools are starting to offer classes segregated based on gender! Yes: girls in one room, boys in another.The old /sign is not for bathroom doors anymore, Single-gender not just for electronic connectors, Single-sex not just for the pimple infested teen.Supporters sustain that girls learn differently from boys and by separating them classes are more orderly and results improve for both. Well, I say, why stop there? Have you ever wonder why the Asians are always portrayed as brainiacs on TV? Maybe they learn differently, get them in a separate class!? I can speak for Italians (boys) and I can tell that we have our very own way of looking at things. Should we book a separate room?I think we just found the root cause to the bad education US children are getting: integration!?
Well, I don't really know if these educators so favorable to homogeneity of classes based on sex (or in short, homosexual classes) ?took the idea from the Taliban but I place my bet that anybody that grows segregated will foster a segregated society.So basically, you need to be roman to conquer the world otherwise you'll mess something up in the process.
