Women in Iran were granted the right to vote in 1963. They were first admitted to Iranian universities in 1937. Since then, several women have held high-ranking posts in the government or parliament. Before and after the 1979 revolution, several women were appointed ministers or ambassadors.
Iran was a very modern country with a vibrant culture before the islamists took over. Iranian women then wore modern clothes without wearing scarves or hijabs. This must be the reason why they’re rebelling: to return their lives to normal. Good image BTW @OldMetalHead
