[edit]

it says that "men typically do not wear tight trousers". but in iran, most men wear extremely tight jeans, since it is popular.Could you give some background?Im having a hard time seeing how this is impacting the sex segregation?

Laws on Hijab[edit]

As far as I know there is no precise law on hijab and it's description and limits. The only law regarding hijab is the only paragraph in penal law mentioned in this article. All the rest are orders by police and official factions responsible for Islamic moralities.

Does anyone has any source on these laws?

Propagandistic lies[edit]

I removed this sentence:

Buses are divided into two parts. Men should get on and off through the front door while the back section and back doors are for women. Although the bus services in Iran are sex-segregated, women should remain fully covered while in bus. In other cities such as in Mashhad, males and females were prevented from traveling on the same bus. Traditionally it is not acceptable in Iran for a man to sit or stand beside a non-mahram woman in public places. It is not forbidden for women in Iran to drive cars like in Saudi Arabia, but riding bicycles and motorbikes remains illegal. It is also forbidden for women to be alone in a car with a non-mahram man.

Now check:

Obviously, someone has tried to spread anti-Iranian propaganda. --109.60.17.216 (talk) 23:29, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mehrshad Mehdi pour (talk) 13:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)Sorry about that, but some sentences of that paragraph are right. Buses are really divided in two parts, or women are banned from riding motorbikes. Or women can't go to soccer matches from 40 years.(there were only one or two games that Iranian women weren't forbidden from going to stadiums and non-Iranian women aren't banned from going to Iranian stadiums.Mehrshad Mehdi pour (talk) 13:39, 7 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I give some more explain in order to disambiguate. Cafe bars are not sex segregated but police checks them regularly and they should obey special rules. Metro (Tehran metro) is sex segregated and there are some female-only wagons. Class rooms (schools completely) are sex segregated for students till almost 18 years old while in universities there are no sex segregation inside classrooms but places outside class rooms inside the campus may be segregated by sex. Stadiums are sex segregated and men are not allowed to sit near non-maharam women. --Doostdar (talk) 20:27, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of content[edit]

BBC states there's so-called "bad hijab law". It's nonsense, there is official Majlis website and such media claims can not be confirmed.
MEMRI isn't reliable source, it's infamous for false citations.
Claims like there's sex segregation in schools, libraries, cafes, restaurants, hairdressers or sport halls is absurd, not even parliament applies it. --HistorNE (talk) 01:09, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sex segregation in bakeries[edit]

In bakeries across Iran, men and women don't stand in separate lines when buying bread. Correct it. (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:18, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, almost with no exception, they stay in separate lines for buying breads. People have used to stay in lines for buying bread, man in one line, women in another line. Give a look at the picture in this website. --Doostdar (talk) 22:10, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Now I added a picture of preparations for sex segregation in a bakery in Iran to the article [1]. --Doostdar (talk) 18:36, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
