   Iran’s Supreme Leader: ‘Gender Equality’ Is A ‘Zionist Plot’   
      
      
   In a statement made on Sunday, Iran’s National Women’s and Mother’s Day,   
   Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei explained the dangers   
   associated with “gender equality.”   
      
   According to Khamenei, the idea of elevating women outside of the household is   
   part of a “zionist plot” aimed at undermining Islamic society.   
      
      
   “These aberrant and neglectful people humiliate the role of a housewife   
   while a housewife is actually in charge of raising and educating the most   
   valuable product, which is a human being,” Khamenei explained.   
   “Unfortunately, sometimes inside the    
   country and in some Islamic environments, tasks and expectations are ascribed   
   to women that in fact collapse and humiliate their roles.”   
      
   “Despite sharing similar goals like rising to spiritual positions,   
   leadership and the ability to guide human beings, men and women are different   
   when it comes to responsibilities in management of life,” he added.   
      
      
   Khamenei even went so far as claiming that “Western scholars and those who   
   pursue issues like gender equality all regret their actions for the corruption   
   they caused.”
