Online petition on behalf of Iranian women
In light of what happened in Tehran’s Azadi Stadium, a couple of friends of mine who happened to be big football fans put together an online petition on behalf of Iranian women who are being locked out of sports arenas all around the country.
We think that sports organizations all around the world can and should make the issue of women’s access to stadiums one of their policies.
I think this, as an issue, is comparable to the race issue that FIFA and UEFA have correctly picked up as a cause.
If you share our view on this, please add your name.
Let’s all sign it!
Woman is the cradle of life!
God made us all equal!!!

[...] There are plenty of social issues out there as well that deserve our attention. The fact that women weren’t allowed to watch Iran’s national team play last month is an outrage. The continued violence in Cote d’Ivoire is something more countries around the world should care about. And on and on. [...]
