In protraction of the Taliban’s misogynistic policies, they recently announced banning all girls from going to universities; which is an explicit example of disregard to the basic human rights of education and work, discriminating against half of the society. According to their narrow worldview people should be categorized and profiled based on Muslim and non-Muslim, men and women, Shiite and Sunni, and some other bigoted categories like ethnic group and the language they speak.

Most of their policies are derived from their sexual view of women, one in which women are reduced to sex objects and striped off of any human dignity, which then can be bought and sold as commodities. Taliban despise a humane look and normalization of sexual affairs and insist on keeping it a shameful taboo to the point that if other men accidentally see the face of their sisters/mothers it is equivalent to rape. In his manifestation, Taliban’s supreme judge explains that men and women looking at each other is adultery.

Taliban understand that educated women will participate in economy, politics, and cultural activities, fight for their rights and will never accept to be sold or bought as sex slaves or commodities. This exactly is against Taliban’s agenda, to enslave women and use them however they want after conquering the land. Free media is suppressed to keep the public in darkness and avoid resistance, girls are banned from universities to keep them unaware of their rights and clear the ground for commanders to continue their sex adventure as a reward to conquest. Taliban intentionally follow this path to keep commander’s loyalty and motivate them to continue fighting. With millions of people stuck in poverty, discrimination and deprivation Taliban have found a perfect ground to fulfill their unlimited sexual desires.

What is shocking for any sane human being is that why the UN, the U.S. and international community are silent? Don’t they see all these misogyny and violence? What good can condemnations do?
