Quote by Zhinia Noorian

“As a male taxi driver in Tehran complained, “Women no longer know their place, and they have disoriented us men too. They are taking our place everywhere: in the universities, the ministries, on the streets. Wherever you turn, there are aggressive women ready to push you aside. You are lucky if they don’t trample you under their feet.”
