Earl, I agree that ‘women’s liberation’ has negative aspects. Certainly family life in this country has deteriorated partly because of it. But the woman in this video is demonstrating an understandable reaction to the tyrannical efforts of the Iranian government to control people’s social behavior. Freedom of conscience is a fundamental right that we in this country would never give up even if it means some degradation in certain aspects of our lives. No one deserves to be beaten bloody by the police because of what they wear. You should be ashamed for expressing such a view.
