Curious how this is so far from many people's thoughts. All responses about what women "should" do. Like they're Martians, or something.

So basically pointless. Because there isn't a law is there? There's a religious decree that's unlikely 2 b changed by millions that adhere.

Yes, there's a law. They are protesting the law. They want to change the law. http://rarehistoricalphotos.com/women-protesting-hijab-1979/ … Part of this: http://mystealthyfreedom.net/en/

Religious decrees can be made but shld be able to be ignored. The Iranian law is for all women believers or not.

You might think protesting unjust laws are pointless and you might be right but the alternative is accepting them.

We live in a world where Saudi Arabia gets voted onto the UN's women's rights counsel. I just don't see how this protest does anything.
-
So, women shouldn't protest forced veiling in Iran because it won't remove Saudi Arabia from the UN Women's Right's Counsel?
-
This I won't respond to since I made no such claim or conclusion. I will tackle the other one though.

Then what did you mean by the former tweet? Was it just a non-sequitur or do you see a connection between Saudi thing & Iranian protests?
