Studies that make worthy contributions to the field of gender in Iran are few—notable exceptions are Janet Afary’s Sexual Politics in Modern Iran and Haideh Moghissi's many articles and books that look at feminism's role in revolutionary Iran.
Són pocs els estudis que fan dignes contribucions al camp del gènere a l'Iran, tot i que hi ha excepcions destacables, com ara Sexual Politics in Modern Iran (La política sexual a l'Iran modern) de la Janet Afary i diversos articles i llibres de la Haideh Moghissi, on se'ns mostra el paper del feminisme a l'Iran revolucionari.
