As male singer, Farooq Kasmaei, center, listens Iranian women singers, Pari Maleki,
left, and Sima Hakimi, perform with their Khonya group, at Honar Cultural Center
in Tehran, Saturday, Dec. 14, 2002. Two women singers broke a taboo Saturday to sing
in a concert for an audience that also included men, a new move testing limits on
expanding social freedoms in Iran. After the 1979 Islamic revolution, clerics banned
women from singing or dancing for male audience as un-Islamic. (AP Photo/Vahid Salemi)
