Dedicated to the brave women of Iran who are standing up against oppression and fighting for their human rights. Women in this century should not be forced to dress as men want them to, or hide their hair under a hijab. Say no to the men and show your hair. No disrespect is intended for the Iranian people in general, or Persian culture, which is rich and filled with much greatness. My complaint is with men, and leaders, who seek to subjugate women. No culture or country can be great in the modern world unless their women are free. Free to vote, be involved in politics, drive, have legal rights to property, marry and divorce who they want, and dress as they like.
​
If a woman freely chooses to wear a hijab, I have no problem with that. It is her choice. What is wrong is men demanding women dress a certain way and using violence or the threat of arrest to enforce it.
