Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Despite real restrictions, Iranian women are far from powerless. In fact, they are among the most educated in the region, and in many cases, more educated than Iranian men. According to UNESCO andĀ World BankĀ data, Iranian women have made up over 60 percent of university students in recent years, with female enrollment peaking at 70ā75 percent in the early 2010s. Today, women account for the majority of graduates inĀ medicine, engineering, and other STEM fields, andĀ female youth literacyĀ exceeds 98 percent. These are not signs of a population waiting to be saved, they are signs of a society where women, despite legal and cultural restrictions, have carved out powerful spaces for agency, knowledge, and resistance. Iranian women have been at the forefront of political protests, student movements, and intellectual life for decades. They do not need Western armies to āliberateā them. What they need is global solidarity that respects their voice and autonomy, not airstrikes framed as feminist interventions.
