Different doesn’t necessarily equate to worse. The IR does oppress women, without a doubt; but American society exploits young women’s sexuality for financial gain, psychologically manipulates them into prohibitive gender norms that are impossible to achieve without vast amounts of wealth and privilege, and then tells them the most important thing they can aspire to be is mother to a man’s offspring.
In short, you, your society, and your government are not as different-and clearly not any better-from any other in the world.
