Iranian Women Bloggers changing Men's Attitude




Iranian women use blogs for gender samizdat Women in Iran have created over 1,200 Perisan blogs, online outlets where they can discuss taboo issues of gender and faith.
"Women in Iran cannot speak out frankly because of our Eastern culture and there are some taboos just for women, such as talking about sex or the right to choose your partner," she said.
"I have the opportunity to talk about these things and share my experiences with others."
For the most part, the response to her blog has been positive.
"I've had e-mails from men who have told me that I changed their attitude towards women in Iran," she said.
