In the book Reading Lolita In Tehran girls being married off at nine or 13 have nothing but fear for the future. Unlike the 13 year old pregnancies in the west, the young girls in Iran are being married off and forced to have sex with men that are generally, at least, twice their age, and who they are fearful of. The book makes it sound like rape. But things may have changed now, the ladies in Iran in the 70s were quite liberal minded (as depicted in the book -- they hate what they see is happening to male thinking and the rise of religion in government), but religious fanaticism in the last twenty years, perhaps, has killed the female spirit there.
