Google 1970s Iran vs now. It’s an interesting contrast of how quickly societies can change; and some would argue, not towards the future but backwards.
Actually, she would be able to dress like that today, because she appears to be in a private home.
Unless there are unrelated men around, she doesn’t have to wear hijab.
Oh, so she'd have to change her outfit to be allowed to leave the confines of her master's home? That makes it so much better.
She probably wouldn’t get changed. She’d probably keep a long jacket and a headscarf next to the front door and throw them over top as she’s leaving the house.
the confines of her master's home
First of all, she’s not a dog. She doesn’t have a master.
And why would you assume that’s not her own house? Maybe she owns it. Maybe she lives alone. Maybe she has female roommates. There’s nothing in this photo that suggests otherwise.
Do you think women in Iran aren’t allowed to own houses or something?
Your logical fallacy is showing.
What logical fallacy?
Cool, thanks. I’ve done my homework and concluded that I’ve made no logical fallacies and you are mistaken.
That tracks. 😚
That really doesn't improve my opinion on Iranian religious oppression of women.
I’m just trying to correct misinformation. I’m not giving an opinion.
And unless you’re an Iranian woman, it doesn’t really matter what your opinion is. Very rarely has a Westerner giving their opinion on a foreign culture been helpful. Usually the opposite.
Gems of religion
Amen 😉
Tone deaf much? 🤦🏽♂️
Irony isn't your forte is it?
Projection, too? You're a triple threat. 🤩
