Iranian Women Stand Up to Men Telling Them to Put On Their Hijabs

28

 

Women in Iran are increasingly standing up to men who demand they put on their hijabs — and are saying no, as they walk down the public streets, and film themselves saying no.

It’s really quite astonishing.

Women have been filming themselves doing this for some time in order to draw attention to what they say is the abuse of Islamic men.

The Daily Mail has more:

Women filmed themselves without veils to capture some of the abuse they face for failing to adhere to Iran’s strict religious rules.

At one point a female campaigner shouts ‘spit out your insults’ after being told to cover her head while a second film shows a man threatening to slap a young woman for breaking the law.

Another video shows a father standing up for her daughter after a passer-by ordered her to ‘observe hijab’. The father stands his ground and tells the man ‘I don’t believe that nonsense’.

The veil has been a mandatory dress requirement for women in Iran since the Islamic Revolution in 1979.

But a movement called White Wednesdays sees women flouting the regulations by capturing footage and pictures of themselves without their hijabs and posting it online. Some of the clips have appeared on the Twitter account My Stealthy Freedom.

One clip says: ‘I have no fear of you, my camera is my weapon here! This brave woman [is] unveiling herself to protest compulsory hijab while walking her dog.

‘Watch how she got attacked by people about hijab and walking a dog. She is strong and filmed it all for #WhiteWednesdays.’

Another video shows a man storming over to a woman and saying: ‘I’m going to slap you if you don’t wear your hijab.’

When the woman asks what he is going to do, he simply replies: ‘Put on your head dress.’

A passer-by then walks over and tells the man: ‘You can warn her calmly right? You can’t slap a woman.’

One touching video shows a father driving with his young daughter in the passenger seat and talking about her future.

He tells the camera: ‘My inspiration for joining the campaign and to oppose compulsory hijab even before that, has been the future of my daughter.

‘I want her to be able to freely make her decisions under the best of conditions. Long live White Wednesdays.’

In one video, a defiant campaigner insists women are ‘not puppets’.

She says: ‘Keep the desire for dignity, freedom, love and hope for all Iranian women. Iranian women deserve the best! Iranian women are not your puppets to do whatever you wish with them; to forcefully bully them, kick them out of stadiums, or forcibly make them wear hijab.”

There were a lot of Iranians in California during the 1970s, under the Shah, before the revolution.

The girls were nice, the men were creeps.

There are plenty of f’ing iranian islamic cretins in SoCal right now. They’re turning Irvine, CA into Irvinistan. One of the Iranian muslum cretins told me: “Christians are treated better than anyone” in Iran. This while a Christian convert and pastor was rotting in an Iranian jail.

Agreed. There were a bunch of Iranian exchange students at my college upon my return from Vietnam. Their lack of basic personal hygiene made them smell like the south end of a northbound goat.

Before the revolution near nobody had hijab there.
People actually say it is not usual even today.
Probably it depends on which region you are.

Iran still features honor killings — complete with rocks, stones and half buried women, as per allah, the balla.

muslim men are low life who started out as spoiled brats as infants then turned into immature spoiled brats as they got older. There is nothing wrong with a muslim man that a good bitchslappingg on a regular basis won’t cure.

These women should give the men a taste of their own medicine. Acid to the face and stonings.

I used to know an Iranian Jewish young woman, she stated the all muslum authorities went out of their way to insure her, her sisters and mother were all properly attired at both work and home — incl. surprise inspections. How thoughtful of the all muslum authorities in the Iranian Repugnant! Gag, choke, cough.

According to Raheem Kassan’s book about No Go Zones and Sharia, most of the mussie women who are now living in the West, are grumbling about wearing burkhas.. They didn’t wear them in their own countries, just the niqab.. Seems the mussie males are worried about the ‘rampant western men” who will rape their women and take their ‘honour'”…Western men are far more fastidious than that.

The veil was never part of society in Iran/Persia until 1974. Islam destroyed another great power with these inbred Muslim imams. The whole nation is held down by fanatics with subnormal intelligence, albeit they have a million very capable people in the cult.

Here’s the problem for the uneducated Muslims as explained in former Muslim Michael Youssef’s book: JESUS, JIHAD, AND PEACE.
He says by Islamic rules only those who can read Arabic are “allowed” to read the Qu’ran…..85% of Muslims are illiterate and cannot read Arabic….so then it falls to the Imans to “translate it for them”…..as the illiterate have no idea if what the Iman is translating is right or not….they accept whatever he says…..most Imans lie and twist and tell them what they want…..the illiterate leaving the Mosques believing what the “holy man” said…..

Granted….Mohamed’s words are vile and filthy enough….but the Iman whips them up into frenzies……stoking the fires of hate and murder….

I found Youssef’s book on Amazon very cheap and it’s not a large book….it has great information about what we can expect here….he even names banks here in America that pay a “tithe” to Muslims and their business interests just for Muslims allowing them to do business with them…. “tithes” that go to fund terrorism……they pay NO tithes to Christian businesses. I learned that even if your bank or credit union doesn’t do that….most are part of a large conglomerate called “holding companies”….you have to look deep.

Youssef was former Middle Eastern Muslim….he became a Christian, came to America and founded THE CHURCH OF THE APOSTLES in Georgia. Sometimes you can get some of his sermons on some channels…

The biggest thing that stood out for me was how he explained that even the so-called “moderate muslims” here in America…..are Allah bound that if called to fight the “Infidels”….they must comply or be killed themselves….think about that the next time someone is described as a “moderate Muslim”…..

More power to them but they had better be careful. The Iranian government’s idea of technological advancement is using construction cranes for gallows.

It is good to see that they are organizing. I was in Iran in 2008 and at that time I observed numerous instances, usually at restaurants, where hijab’s would “accidentally” slip off their heads. The usual response was to very slowly place it back on their heads whereupon it would “accidentally” slip off a few minutes later.

When we boarded the plane to return to the US all of the Iranian women removed those scarves the second they entered the cabin – as opposed to waiting until they left Iranian air space, which is what they were supposed to do. I realized that I was the last woman on the plane to remove the covering from my head.
