Where in the Quran does it state that unrelated men and women should not mingle?

Please quote the surah and point me to the verse.

Follow up question:

If there is no direct Koranic reference to mingling then is it possible that this "rule" is stretched from the general call to remain sexually pure?

Second follow up question:

Can one mingle with all types of people and still remain sexually pure?
 
There is NO such restriction in the Quran. Neither is there any such thing as the viel / hijaab.

If you find it somewhere, do let me know. I have not been able to find it even after studying it 10s of times.
 
33:59 O Prophet! Tell thy wives and thy daughters, as well as all [other] believing women, that they should draw over themselves some of their outer garments [when in public]: this will be more conÂ*ducive to their being recognized [as decent women] and not annoyed. But [withal,] God is indeed much- forgiving, a dispenser of grace!

33:53 (Asad) O YOU who have attained to faith! Do not enter the Prophet’s dwellings unless you are given leave; [and when invited] to a meal, do not come [so early as] to wait for it to be readied: but whenever you are invited, enter [at the proper time]; and when you have partaken of the meal, disperse without lingering for the sake of mere talk: that, behold, might give offence to the Prophet, and yet he might feel shy of [asking] you [to leave]: but God is not shy of [teaching you] what is right. And [as for the Prophet’s wives,] whenever you ask them for anything that you need, ask them from behind a screen: this will but deepen the purity of your hearts and theirs. Moreover, it does not behove you to give offence to God’s Apostle - just as it would not behove you ever to marry his widows after he has passed away: that, verily, would be an enormity in the sight of God.

The second verse I mentioned is for Prophet's wife. However, as we are not free from the purity that is required by Prophet's wife we too have to follow it.
 
They twist their own scriptures in order to validate gender segregation and sexual suppression.
