    I was fascinated reading about this school that was instigated by Nazi War Criminal Heinrich Himmler who later committed suicide before going to trial.

    My aunt participated in the program towards her first husband (who sketchy family legend has dying in the final days of Berlin).

    She said she was 'selected' for it and allocated a man in a very arranged manner, but I don't ever recall it being discussed in depth.
    (Granny called her 'Miss Belsen' for years after my uncle brought her home from postwar Germany... some topics were bound to be skirted slightly.)

    ..thanks--I don't recall hearing about this, too much
    ..didn't a lot of countries have ''comparable''' ideas on women, as the nazis [ Germans ] did = expected to stay home/clean/cook?
    ....so it was for brides and not younger girls?

    Propaganda,propaganda,propaganda....

    But things will be changing. You will see. men do not want to read and if you don´t read, you don´t get to top places.
    Like someone said, to beat the "terrorists" educating women is the first step.
