An Iranian monarchist who filmed herself pulling the headscarves off Iranians in London fled to Israel after UK police announced they were investigating her.
The woman allegedly responsible is an Iranian pro-Israel activist called Bahar Mahroo, who later closed her Instagram and TikTok accounts and claimed she found the videos online. However, a reserve image search found no sources for the video, other than her Twitter account.
Well given that there is some relation to Iran, as a government it would help to not force people to wear it anymore.
In terms of European societies it’s a common allegation that women would be forced to wear it but in countries like France, Germany, UK, etc. it’s usually non-Muslim people speaking about this issue but no one actually speaks to Muslim women and asks them what they want.
So it’s not like there’s actual data on this and I doubt that it’s possible to collect reliable data on this issue. IMO a first step would be to work together with Muslim women instead of patronizing them.
It is just a piece of clothing that goes on your head at the end of the day, how could its presence or absence possibly be offensive?
It’s the brainwashing that’s the problem.
Let me guess, politicians and religious “scholars” are involved in it… right?
I also don’t get it but people nowadays obsess over the weirdest things.
Totally. I never understood that either.
