You're welcome. I'm learning French using Duolingo. It's a great language. FYI you don't need to start over, I think you can take a shortcut in the middle of the tree and jump to higher levels.

Her memoirs were published under the title of Crowning Anguish: Memoirs of a Persian Princess from the Harem to Modernity 1884-1914(1996), edited with a preface by Abbas Amanat and translated by Anna Vanzan and Amin Neshati. They were well received, the Times Literary Supplement describing them thus: In somewhat unusual and cumbersome style, Taj's memoirs, written in 1914, cover a thirty-year span of a rapidly changing era[...] A curious blend of the reconstructive and reflective, Taj al Saltaneh's memoirs bring home the intense conflicts of a life straddling the harem and modernism. (March 4, 1994)

Taj Saltaneh was a trailblazer for women's rights in Iran and a feminist. She was a prominent founding member of Iran's underground women's rights group Anjoman Horriyyat Nsevan (The Society of Women’s Freedom), working for equal rights for women circa 1910.
She was a writer, a painter, an intellectual and an activist who hosted literary salons at her house once a week. She was the first woman in court to take off the hijab and wear western clothes.

All of this aside I like to talk about my ideas, if I hate some celebrity I say fuck them, I'm not five so I don't think saying fuck means I am angry or anything, I just use any words that I like

Why don't people in the US have a referendum on guns, maybe the majority want to ban them, and we will see what happens. It will be a great experiment in our lifetime

You are reading the wrong part, come up a little bit, I asked a real substantial question and we are talking about it. These comments at the end are just for the people who downvoted me I am just having fun with them
