Taliban ban windows to stop women being seen inside homes
The Taliban have taken multiple steps to walk back women's rights including forbidding education for girls beyond grade six and banning women from universities.

Summary
The Taliban have banned windows in homes that allow views of areas where Afghan women might be seen, citing concerns over "obscene acts."
This new decree mandates blocking or obstructing such windows in existing and new buildings, continuing the group's systemic repression of women since regaining control of Afghanistan in August 2021.
The Taliban's policies have included bans on women's education, public appearances, and voices.
Critics, including the U.N., warn these actions dangerously erode human rights, while activists call out global inaction over the ongoing oppression.
You're viewing a single thread.
I always think about how they think this will work in the longterm. If you completely ban woman from all places and want to cover their existence you will create an environment where you simply kill your country by lowering the birthrates. When there are no places to date this will affect the birthrates in a way that, in the longterm, you will not be able to support your country because there aren't enough people to support everything.
They forcefully marry the daughters and they get raped when that marriage happens. So Idk if birth rates will go down
Hate to say it, but that devinetively seems like an option.
It’s not an option, it’s the norm in many of these countries. Arrainged marriage, social pressure, and rape.
