Women’s Rights in Afghanistan

Posted on 05/01/2025 by Daniel

It is probably true to say they don’t have any since the defeat of the Russian by the Mujahideen.  I read on various UN sites and medical oversight pages that they cannot even appear on TV series. They cannot run café, or appear in public without a close family member (male) whom they are forbidden to marry. No driving cars, no walking in parks, no sports, no education.

I know for many generations western countries treated women like possessions and even salves but they did learn to be different. Women have not had freedoms in the west for nearly long enough, they should never have not had them. But if ever there is a reason to go to war it is with the religious bigots who, wherever they are, deny women freedom, the right to choose their path in life and the right to explore their own intellect. This level of thinking about women should have been consigned to a dustbin centuries ago.
