Isn't that separation also traditional in orthodox Jewish communities?
I'll help you out: "In many traditional Islamic communities it's common to separate genders when it comes to public performances" See? Easyhttps://twitter.com/mpvusa/status/866073131118608384 …

Truth. Much like how there are all girl and all boy catholic schools. Or all women or all male spas.
-
Yes, but taking your eg forward, are there other places where Muslim men & women are allowed to mix with ease, like a version of a bar? No.
-
Yes there are. I'm in afghanistan often where you see both - there are many public venues where both are mixed I've performed at them.
-
I'm from Pakistan and there is no restriction on mingling in public spaces but there is no culture for it either.

Separation of genders in public in Islam is weird/I don't like it, but I then again I participate in symbolic cannibalism on Sunday mornings

ive been to pakistan, i can vouch for this. weddings often divide the crowd and the performers.
-
I've been to Pakistan too (mostly for weddings) & I've never seen a division, i guess it depends on the family
-
ive been to weddings that have divided, as well as ones that didnt. i always imagined it depended on the hall, tbh.
-
No not the hall, depends on the families.
-
really? actually, that makes sense....we were friends with a lot of families.
-
Yes, the wedding scene in Pak is generally very open & OTT. Halls, vendors etc have no issue or say in segregation.
-
ahhh this was enlightening. i didnt know this before. :)
