11 People on a Rope...


11 People on a Rope

Eleven people were hanging on a rope, under a helicopter,
10 men and one woman.
The rope was not strong enough to carry them all,
so they decided that one had to leave,
otherwise they were all going to fall.
They weren't able to choose that person
until the woman gave a very touching speech.
She said that she would voluntarily let go of the rope,
because, as a woman, she was used to giving up everything
for her husband and kids or for men in general,
and was used to always making sacrifices with little in return.
As soon as she finished her speech,
all the men started clapping...
