Thoughts so far: (only watched the first half so far)
I find it such a shame things like this have happened and still happen in the world, Its sad that some men think of women as things as property that they haven't woken up to reality and are still living inside their twisted minds, Though a lot of people have moved on from this childish facade not all have.

According to a post on Quora the women in Iran are underestimated in their education, and are more educated then the outside world thinks, (This is most likely Bias though so im taking this info with a grain of salt) the post holds them in a good light not looking down upon them or belittling them. It was created by a person who lives with their wife in Iran.
