Choosing Clothes, but Not Husbands (Xinbei Xie)

In this article, it talks about women's right in Afghan. Even though nowadays the feminine's position are increasing. In some areas, especially some countries in Asia, such as Afghan that mentioned in this essay, there is heavy unequal between men and women.

In some countries, women have to cover their heads and faces only show their eyes. They are afraid to show their skin in public, and this is also a tradition in their countries. Like that mentioned in the essay, most of them can't choose the married by themselves. Their parents will arrange all the things for them. Moreover, some women can't get a further education. I think it is really unfair for them.

I am not total a feminist, but I really hope women can equal with men

I think it is hard for them to go further, because it is a part of their culture. Only thing they can do is to move to another country and start to live another life, because there is no ohter way to change it. (Amangeldy Bugubayev)
