Gives me a little satisfactory glow to think that women’s words are so incredibly powerful that men can’t be allowed to read them.

Your loss you misogynist wankers.

Men sit at tables in a room with bookshelves in the background

Taliban ban books written by women from Afghan universities

The decree also outlaws the teaching of 18 subjects, including human rights and sexual harassment.

Ironically the only words I can think of to describe how I feel about this were written by a man - "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever." George Orwell, 1984.

books by women - including titles like "Safety in the Chemical Laboratory"

Not even books that will keep men safe. Misogyny is just the beginning. I suspect the objective is complete divorce from the modern world (except for guns and mobile phones, of course).

How long before the Taliban shut all the universities, to truly take all Afghanis back into medieval isolationism, not just female Afghanis? (Except for guns and mobile phones for elite men, of course).
