Vladimir Minorsky said in his book (Kurds, notes and impressions) that Kurds are the most tolerant of all other neighboring Islamic peoples towards women.
words of Minorsky may be true in the (simple) social and economic situation, where the Kurdish woman had a wide freedom at these two levels.
The Kurdish traditions did not restrict moving of woman in her small geographical region (village, city) and did not prevent her from reception guests if the man was not present.
In simple economic terms, the Kurdish women were working in farming, even sometimes in some regions, women have to work in farming .
The history or the Kurdish traditions and customs did not document difficult conditions for the work of women.
Despite her freedom at these two levels, the woman remained with simple effective in her society, what she earns from her work was often back for man.
