KABUL, AFGHANISTAN - JULY 6: Afghan female students attend Kabul university on July 6, 2010 in Kabul, Afghanistan. The change in the status of women in Afghanistan has changed since the Taliban regime where women were forced to wear the burqa in public. The face of a woman was considered a source of corruption for men not related to them. They were not allowed to work and not allowed to be educated after the age of eight and then only permitted to study the Qur'an. Women wanting to be educated were forced to attend underground schools such as the Golden Needle Sewing School and along with their teachers risked execution if caught. They also were not allowed to be treated by male doctors unless accompanied by a male chaperone often leading to illnesses remaining untreated. Women faced public flogging and execution for violations of the Taliban's laws. (Photo by Majid Saeedi/Getty Images)
