What will be an ideal response?
The overall status of women in Central Asia varies. Among the former union republics of the USSR, women's levels of education and employment are comparable to those of males. This is a reflection of the Soviet system's emphasis on access to education. In Afghanistan, which has been controlled by the religiously driven Taliban, the status of women is low, with exceedingly low levels of literacy and economic opportunity. In addition, Afghan women often are dominated by the men in their families.
