According to the Taliban, female students are bad because of their headgear and wanting to learn about agriculture: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/talibans-higher-education-minister-defends-ban-on-women-from-universities

@koavf not allowing girls education is a direct rebuke of the Quran. Mohammad directly says ALL should be educated
@redenigma Of course this is just a gross pretext for misogyny. The Taliban are just as concerned with Islamism as they are with Pashtunwali and if either can be used as a justification for barbarism, they will use it. As I recall, lying is anti-Islam as well and they made several promises to preserve the rights of female Afghanis. I fear that they will have to have a people power movement to stop this gross, regressive sham government.
