Iran's leader defends hijab laws despite widespread public defiance and gender rights restrictions.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei defended the mandatory hijab as essential to women's dignity and a resistance to Western influence, sparking online ridicule for contradicting Iran's strict gender enforcement.
While he criticized gender inequality abroad, including the pay gap, his remarks drew backlash for hypocrisy, given Iran's legal restrictions on women's work, mobility, and rights, including bans on high-level political and judicial roles.
Public defiance of the hijab law continues to grow, highlighting ongoing tension between state mandates and personal freedoms.
