Well, now a group of women in India have started doing just that. And it's proving to be very successful.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/opinion/article3362796.ece"> They call themselves the Gulabi Gang, meaning the Pink Gang, so-named because the women wear candy-pink saris. And pink is the colour of life in India. They currently number several hundred strong. The group is based in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh and is made up of women and girls from the Dalit class (the Untouchables). These women traditionally do the dirtiest jobs in society: emptying dry toilets and cleaning blood and animal waste from the slaughterhouses. They are known as Untouchables because other people do not want to touch them for fear of catching a disease.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/2B94AC07-63B2-4086-97CF-E2A9981F454C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
