While Western Women have gone full bare, seems the women of Iran have gone (or been forced to go the other since the days of pre-revolution)

Glamorous shots of models in Iranian fashion magazines from the 1970s show just how different life - and fashion - was like before the Revolution.
In a series of pictures taken for magazines and catalogues and posted on photo-sharing site BoredPanda.com, models smile into the camera, twirl their hair and showcase bare legs, arms and hair - all of which must be covered up today.
The images show a Western-orientated aesthetic, and reveal women's freedom up until 1979 when the Islamic Revolution took place.

I had heard that Iranian women were quite free when the shah was in power..
The shah was similar to Chiang Kai Shek because they were both dictators, women were not second class citizens like they are in today's Islamic Republic of Iran.

True enough. It would have became an Islamic republic twenty years earlier than when they did.
Too bad ... and he tries so hard to blame every islam being islam on others and claim that islam does not always return to its vile islamic roots especially ... when left on its own
Turkey, a temporary holdout thanks only to Ataturk's brilliance and efforts is back on islam's intended course and fast returning to being just another islamic hellhole .. and fk all to do with any outside forces
Iran (and many other places) are fundy hellholes because ultimately islam on its own creates ONLY hellholes
it's islam stupid!!
A thought here - As this is yet another islam extremism thread, Iran regime being extremely so in fact, should it not be with the other extremism threads?
Joe knew that but doesn't like to play by the rules / mistakenly thinks rules don't apply to him
In fact this thread is merely an islamic mate / mimic to the current Travelling to Turkey? Watch what you wear, ladies (//http) .. . different country, same old islamic fundy ideology = same old misogyny against women .. to name just one of a dozen or more goodies
same old misogyny against women .....not that theres anything wrong with that.

It's becoming obvious that was the destiny of the entire region.

Iranians before the revolution and before the Ayatollah came to power were in acuality 'Persians'. The ones who came after the fall of the Shah were 'Iranians'. I see a real difference. The Persians were sophisticated and cultured. This new breed of Iranians, coarse, rude and uncouthe.
When the Islamacists ordered the women of Iran to cover up, stop using birth control, etc. The country became a brutal theocracy. They smothered and destroyed much of the finer aspeects of Persian culture.
Old Iran was an ally of the United States. New Iran became an enemy of America. Its kind of like comparing Imperial Japan before World War I. Fascists hijacked that nation's agenda and tranformed it from an ally of the West into an enemy of the US and Britain.
All it takes is a change of government overnight and a nation becomes militaristic, anti western, but ultimately its own citizens are the ones who suffer the most.
Persians lost Persia and being Persians in 651 .. becoming controlled and absorbed by comparably crude violent islamics
In 1935 the Iranian government requested those countries which it had diplomatic relations with, to call Persia (a piece of Iran) "Iran," which is the name of the country in Persian.
1979? .... Close :001_rolleyes: , but no cigar
While it loosened up in "some" areas under the shah, It has been an islamic hellhole since 651 .. and more importantly, occupied by the very same people and their ancestors since then
