I came across another example of legal double- standards between men and women.
In Iran, men and women can enter into a "temporary marriage" for an agreed period of time if some money is paid to the woman. Men can have up to four legal wives under Islamic law plus an unlimited number of these “temporary” wives, but women can only be married to one man at a time.
This is a story of one of those "temporary wives" and the consequences of this double- standard.
