Unintentional?

If what Bono says is true (I say as I swoon...who doesn't love Bono?), and this woman didn't mean to be insensitive, her international aid organization has a lot to answer for.

One of my roommates from senior year of college went into the Peace Corps immediately after school - to Togo, to teach sex education. Granted, that's a loaded topic, but you can be sure the Peace Corps didn't let her leave the US without a very clear understanding of local culture and what not to do.

Talk about cultural imperialism.
