Parastoo Ahmadi sang while wearing a sleeveless dress during a concert livestreamed on her YouTube channel in December 2024. Iran’s laws ban public performances by women and require them to wear headscarves and modest clothing.
Iran’s judiciary launched proceedings against the 29-year-old after the video went viral, gaining millions of views, saying the performance was “in violation of the country’s legal and cultural regulations”.
You Western chauvinists love to talk up feminism, as though you’re not the very people who’ve been opposed to it the whole time.
In America, the no1 cause of death for pregnant people is homicide. And for every 100 rapes reported to the police, 3 people on average will catch charges. You see the West is full of primitive men who only respect their battered and raped women inside Islamophobic fantasies. They hate women in large part because of an ancient and loose confederation of primitive cults collectively called Christianity.
Oh misogyny doesn’t need Christianity to be able to thrive. I’ve worked in the Trades since 1980… and over the decades caught plenty of snide remarks, had my tools stolen and the quality of my work dismissed. Not a Chrsitian man in the lot… just easily threatened limp-dick assholes that thought the jobsite was their clubhouse with No Girls Allowed.
Compared to women not allowed to do anything at all without male presence any sane person would choose not a fundamentalist backwards country. There is nothing good to say about christianity, islam or any organized religion (and about religion in general, somehow it always attracts worst kinds of both people and ideas).
I cant tell if that first part is about Islam or what Christianity is aspiring to. Both I guess.
