Iran: New plan to gender segregate telephone booths PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 19 February 2008
NCRI - In the latest plan introduced by the Iranian regime to deepen gender segregation in the society, telephone booths are targeted, the state-run website Farda reported on Monday.  

Following such previous plans as buses, taxies, schools, public service offices, and text books segregations, now telephone booths are divided between males and females in the holy city of Qom, in central Iran for the first time according to Farda.

Imposing strict gender segregation in all social activities involving women has been the practice since the early days of the mullahs' regime in Iran. However, going as far as segregating the phone booths is a new measure to deepen the gender discrimination in Iran.
