UN Development Programme in Viet Nam has new video series that flips gender roles.

The United Nations Development Programme in Viet Nam has a series of new videos that flip gender roles. Marked by tongue-in-cheek humor, the videos show women getting drunk with friends and playing billiards, while their husbands care for the kids and go shopping.
