Abstract

In the city of Tabriz, the combination of traditional and modern culture has led to the formation of urban inequalities in women’s experience of public spaces. The perception of the female body in these spaces is influenced by social norms, urban design, and feelings of insecurity, which can limit women's presence and Lifestyle. Accordingly, this study was conducted on the topic of " Women's Lifestyle and urban inequalities in Tabriz: Perception of the Female Body in public spaces”. This research was analyzed using qualitative method and content analysis with the participation of 92 Tabriz women. Sampling began purposively and continued until theoretical saturation. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using the Strauss and Corbin method. Analysis of the interviews showed that the main category of "female body; the basis of women's fear" overshadowed women's experiences in public spaces. This category included three subcategories: “Feeling of fear in vehicles”, “Feeling of insecurity in public places” and “Reputation in social life”, each of which specifically addresses women’s concerns and challenges in interacting with urban spaces. Findings: The results and findings of this study highlight the need to review urban policies to reduce gender inequalities and increase women’s safety. Redesigning public spaces in Tabriz city by considering women’s needs and experiences can be an effective step in reducing gender inequalities, reducing fear and promoting their safety and well-being. Such changes will not only increase women’s social participation, but also pave the way for a fairer and safer city for all citizens.
