        Meanwhile, women in Iran, right this moment are being beaten, imprisoned, and sentenced to long terms in the harshest prisons you can imagine..for protesting mandatory hijab. Something to keep in mind, please.

        It was. Happily, my mom fled the year before, so it never touched her head, but my aunts were less lucky. They lived there for some time before leaving, and a few family remain in Iran even now. Unfortunately.

        Patriarchies are worth defending if they get violent over criticism, I guess.

        Solidarity to what? the real feminists in Iran are confronting a brutal regime imposing the Hejab and here in the US, fake feminists are asking women to wear Hejab, that is a despicable act.pic.twitter.com/5admlkmYcV

        This is an absurd statement. Feminists in Iran and the US are both supporting choice. In Iran it's the choice not to be forced to wear hijab and in the US it's the choice not to be barred from wearing hijab.

        non sense- Are you seeing women getting harassed, attacked, and persecuted in the US because they are wearing Hejab?

        Yes. And in Canada there have been numerous attempts to ban it.

        at the same degree as in Iran? just watch what Masih Alinejad says about the fake feminists in the west who are hijacking the rights of women in Iran at the benefits of gender segregation established by Mullahs.pic.twitter.com/kNYB6i4RMY
