Yes, but as the article in the Economist notes, the men were expected to pray thrice daily in groups of at least ten. The women had no similar expectation for repeated collaborative group prayer.

But is it men controlling other men, or indirectly, women controlling men, or even, men failing to control women, or through control failing to actually control them?
