That, however, is a completely different question from whether women who do want to become engineers and are qualified to study engineering should be denied the opportunity to achieve their ambition. By explicitly preventing women from enrolling in courses open to men, Iran has taken a step that is as indefensible as racial discrimination, and that should be condemned just as forcefully.
但这与剥夺有志成为工程师也通过了工程师入学考试的女生实现愿望的机会绝不是同一个问题。命令禁止女生选修向男生开房的课程，伊朗的这一举措和种族歧视一样站不住脚，应该被千夫所指。
