It is not really fare
Iranian women held a protest on Hate Tir Squar in Tehran on June 12th against the gender discrimination under current Iran’s laws.
Unfortunately police violently attacked a small group of women who were peacefully started to demonstrate their idea.
Today I showed some photos of the protest and the police treatment to my 7 year daughter.
My daughter asked me why police hit these women and I explained that these ladies wanted to say something and government didn't like that, I told her about the gender equity and some of the women expectations in Iran.
She replied if I was governor I let them to tell me their idea, I want they just chant really soft
They could be the president if they want, I want to break that law and I wanna say if you are a girl and a boy it dose not matter, it is not that different they are the same.
I am killing that law,
I wanna be a president so why can't I ?
It is not really fare.
