Safaei is an opponent of gender equality, having said “Instead of talking about gender equality, we need to talk about gender justice. Because these imbalances can lead to social crises.”[4] She supports sex segregation and “Islamicising universities”, and calls for examination of university professors and textbooks in accordance with Islam.[3]
