[quote=Anonymous]Re: the STDs. STDs are epidemic in Iran despite the chador mandate. Iran's fertility rate has declined far faster than any other country. As of 2012, the birth rate for women stood at 1.6, below replacement. It has a lifetime infertility rate of between 22%and 25%, the highest in the world. The tentative conclusion is that the decline in birth rates is due to STD-induced infertility. The government has made IVF available very cheaply as a counter measure. You will notice that the onset of the decline in birth rates lagged by two years or so the Iranian Revolution. Can we conclude that the chador and other government mandated coverings are associated with a rise, rather than a decrease, in STDs? In any case, there appears to be no substance to the hijab as protection from STDs argument. http://www.meforum.org/5000/strategic-implications-iran-std [/quote]
