How is this social injustice?  Affects women and the people around them  Doesn‘t allow women the freedom of dressing the way that makes them feel comfortable  Can make women feel like they have no freedom and that they can only do what men feel is right or acceptable. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2009/aug/14/afghanistan- womens-rights-rape
