Quotes to be removed

[edit]
  • ...the veil is a symbol of sexual apartheid and the segregation of the sexes. In countries where Islam rules, like in Iran, the separate entrances for women in certain government offices; separate areas for women’s seating on buses for example; the banning of women from certain public arenas like sport stadiums; a curtain dividing the Caspian sea for segregated swimming and so on is what it means in practice to be a female under Islam. That people transgress these rules daily is a testimony to their humanity and not the laws or state that imposes it by force.
  1. The source given for the first quote is a biased islamophobic blog ; not a reliable and notable source, all will agree. I didn't found any reliable and notable publication quoting this.
  2. The second quote is based on a translation from MEMRI which is notable for often mistranslating items and cherry-picking controversial statements. In addition to this, it should be noted that this quote is more related to Iran than the present topic.
