Abdullah Javadi Amoli, a high ranking religious mullah stated in his recent teachings that, “The characteristics of men and women is very different. One of the main differences is that women must become mothers. And becoming a mother requires affection. We think that the highest achievement of women is that they receive medals, yet the highest achievement of women is that she becomes a mother and raises her children.”
In response to a question on the “sharia” of broadcasting women’s games on television, mullah Amoli said, “The main principle of such broadcasting on television is incorrect and broadcasting scenes not abiding by sharia rules is not allowed.”
