Love how red the one with her hand on her head is getting. It’s obvious the woman is destroying the four of them in the argument.
Can this horrible male dominated tyranny be overthrown?
I certainly hope so!
Karen’s in hijabs
Unfortunately, she will be disappeared soon.
Lot of badass Iranian women out there. Kind of feel like their leaders didn’t understand just how few fucks these women have to give about their opinions and rules.
Very nice hair
So sad that so many women get willingly suppressed.
Major points for bravery of course but I’m equally as impressed by that hair!
“No young lady, you don’t understand, the men aren’t oppressing us, allah wants it this way! The all-male Islamic authorities told us so!”
SMH
It must be super frustrating for the woman who took her veil off, right now they’re all lecturing her about morality, and modesty, and obedience, and “what a woman should be”. it’s really rediculous.
Imagine growing that hair and being forced to keep it covered up.
Religion. Scared of hair.
These threads get cowardly locked every time. Sometimes few times a day.
I just came here to say that people should have a basic right to NOT be religious…. religion is nothing but trouble
It seems strange but one of the biggest obstacles women have always faced when pushing for rights has been other women.
What are the woman in hijabs actually arguing for? Other than tradition or religion..
What specifically is their point?
What would happen if they shaved their heads bald? Because isn’t the belief that hair will lead men to temptation?
Curse upon these crazy mullahs who are torturing their own citizens. Religious extremism is evil,no matter what sect,ideology and belief you take too far.
Please win!
Hope they finally achieve freedom.
Kinda nuts that people defend having a women cover their face and think that’s okay lmao
Oh no, Allah will freak out if he sees her hair! Haram!
I feel for them and the repercussions they will face. I was born and raised there up to 5th grade. I remember this one day we were going to a relatives house for Persian new year. It was my dad driving, mom in the passenger with me and my grandma in the back. One of these bastard male basij militia started chasing our car with his ak47 pulling my mom out and putting her in a van to take to the station because apparently she was wearing lipstick. I just remember being terrified and crying. Eventually they let her go because by the time my dad pulled over she had wiped her make up off.
Beautiful hair. Shame she had to keep it covered if she didn’t want to.
She’s extremely brave. She’s risking death right there.
The Basij have women members? Assumed it was all males 🤔
Hurt people hurt people.
These women have been abused and mistreated their entire lives by a sexist theocracy, but they turn around and assault others just for the little bit of power and self-righteousness it gives them. Breaks my heart.
Good luck lady, you can’t argue with stupid
Wondering about the other women on this photo. What are they thinking? I wish I was that brave? I could do that if I knew my husband wouldn’t find out. Great evocative picture.
Imagine counter protesting in favour of your own oppression. An anti-suffrage movement created by women. (Worth pointing out, I don’t think the Hijab is oppressive in of itself if one chooses to – but a FORCED Hijab is.)
Insane oppression for a country that claims to be so “modern”. I hope every woman in Iran removes theirs.
I saw this pic and all I can think is
*Gimme a head with hair*
*Long, beautiful hair*
*Shining, gleaming*
*Streaming, flaxen*
*Hair down to there*
I think what we have to understand is that people don’t want this type of tyranny. They might crave the certainty of authoritarianism but it’s not good for human beings and humanity as a whole. People need less intervention in their lives and they will always fight for it at some level.
Dam she has pretty hair
I really don’t understand these types of women who wear these or are told to wear things like these. It’s the most literal visual of religious and passive oppression, and people think that’s ok or normal. Women taking them off to stand up to their oppressors are some of the most brave people I can think of in the modern day.
Fully supportive these brave women standing up against their oppressors in Iran, but for those in the West, let’s remember that it’s the state killing a woman for not wearing a hijab that is the problem, not that women sometimes choose to wear a hijab.
Let’s support our muslim friends by supporting the freedom to not wear **or to wear** the hijab as they choose.
They argue it’s for modesty. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think there is also a “it’s for her husband” theme too.
That hair is too beautiful to be covered.
Show off that awesome hair, girl!
What a beautiful hair 😲
Can we just say goodbye to all of these Abrahamic death cults already? I can’t stand when people say, “Oh, the beliefs are fine, it’s just the few extremist assholes who cause this!” No. It’s the stupid fucking religion. And these women have to fight against it.
Iranian women are beautiful. They should be able to express themselves
Not sure if it’s been mentioned elsewhere, but I’m very happy that all the pictures I’ve been seeing posted about women removing their hijabs have been from the back. Showcasing their bravery but not allowing their faces to be posted online, at least not here, for the cowards to track down these brave women with harmful intent. May they continue to fight the good fight
Have to admit, a lot of those Iranian women have beautiful hair.
And she has absolutely GORGEOUS hair too!
