According to the Iranian professor, Dr. Zohreh Kharazmi, women in the Western world are not living in freedom as they are being taught from very beginning, but instead are treated like tradable commodities.

Dr. Kharazmi, who’s a professor at the University of Tehran and “expert on women’s affairs”, told the Iranian news agency PressTV in an interview, that women in the West are objectified as commodity and a “part of the capitalist market”, with a growing “degradation of women’s rights”.

“For example, it is always that women in the cinema are filmed with the camera concentrating on the female and the male looking at her. The woman is never enabled in reality, it always looks like she is a mute commodity for the enjoyment of others, especially men, and this is something Western sociologists have said,” according to Dr. Kharazmi.

She also said that men and women in the West are taught to live a life containing just work and consumption, and that feminist values with the concept of 50-50 gender equality especially within the labor market that is being pushed by the United Nations, “cannot create an ideal world for women”, according to Dr. Kharazmi.

“Women are counted as labor. American and European sociologists already say that women are prepared and trained to be a chain of the whole market, women and men alike; just learning to work and to consume,” said the Dr. Kharazmi , calling it a “vicious cycle” in which both “women and men are trapped” in.
