How do TBers such as Susan Levin and Denise Denniston respond to this?
"...deny females access to higher education..."
Both these wmoen are UCBerkeley Ph.D.'s for garsh sakes.
Frankly I need to hear from them.

I have two daughters myself - have been a very involved father,
finding parenting a learning, rewarding and sublime experience in its

world of work. The female contribution in the workplace nowadays is
essential both technically and in terms of their "people" skills;
equally, the most significant factor in the rise of children's
psychological and behavioural problems often relates to emotionally
absent fathers rather than mothers.. Restricting the VISION of the
female function in society to that of a MOTHER, whilst perhaps
understandable in a hunter-gathering or early agricultural community,
makes NO SENSE in a post-industrial society where families typically
have much fewer children and females have important career
contributions to make before and after having children. I personally
would be horrified if my daughters had to live in a Global Country
where the ideal was not that different from what the Talibans
consider most noble for their women - namely, having no civic rights
at all!! Surely what we all need is CHOICE and better QUALITY,
whatever that choice might be.
So yes, I'm STILL puzzled why these clearly REGRESSIVE developments
don't bother meditators more..
