Extending this to majority of Iranian women/men is wrong, as evidenced by what is happening in Iran right now. Most of them are in Iran, in the forefront of this "collective change". Only 4M out of 88M [1] are out for various reasons.
I think this is a kind of survival bias, where you talked to the ones, who wanted to "get the hell out of Iran". Even many of those who live outside, dream about coming back sooner or later.
