The Taliban restrict and instill fear of violence in girls and women’s mind. They ban women from laughing out loud, wearing white shoes, “as white was “a color that belonged to men,”’ and from wearing nail polish (Yousafzai 67). The Taliban oppose educating women because “they think that when a child reads a book or learns English or studies science he or she will become Westernized” (Yousafzai 162).
