Women were subjected to extreme gender segregation, were banned from working or receiving education, and were required to wear the burqa in public. They faced severe punishments for any perceived violations of the Taliban's interpretation of Islamic law. This included public executions, floggings, and other forms of brutal treatment. The Taliban's rule was characterized by the systematic oppression and marginalization of women in Afghanistan.

    The literacy rate for girls in Afghanistan is 18%. This indicates that only a small percentage of girls in Afghanistan are able to read and write. This low literacy rate could be attributed to various factors such as cultural norms, limited access to education, and gender inequality. It highlights the need for efforts to improve educational opportunities and promote gender equality in Afghanistan.
