Farsi families are usually very traditional even when Iranian women do have rights which many Muslims women do not have around the Muslim world ... most are highly educated and very tight to their family ....
i would like to mention some facts about the Iranians though :
Iranian men are allowed to have up to 4 wives if the first wife agrees to let him and he can afford to have them each on their separate homes ...
Muslims do have the easies way in the world to get divorced , all they have to do ( the men ) is say i renounce to u three time and they automatically are divorced ...
when a Muslim woman is divorced she loses all the rights over the children since they are not hers according to the Muslim world ( i ignore if the same happens in Iran ) ...
a Muslim woman may be allowed to divorce if the husband does not fulfill his duties ( not good in bed ) and she goes and let the sheik know about it ...
in the Muslim world the family of the one future husband has to give a dote ( money ) which will have to be returned to him if divorce occurs ( i ignore if it always has to be that way or if there is exceptions in some cases )

Middle Eastern women are not supposed to leave their parents home and live somewhere else unless they get married. They could live in another house but they need a brother, father, uncle, or even husband (muslims call them MAHRAM) to live with them for protection. A muslim women is not even to get a ride by a someone unless her MAHRAM is with her.
