> Former Iran used to be mini-skirts You mean just in a few cities like Tehran and only in 60s and 70s?

  Yeah Tehran, Shiraz, and Isfahan at least. Not very practical otherwise as it was a fashion thing. I would imagine as other towns grew it would have spread. Only point being they were not killed for it.

    I think you need to do some research on it. Secular modernization was forced on Iranian population by pre-revolution rulers. There's in fact records of police tearing off veils and actually killing protesters of veil ban. I'm not saying the current regime is very democratic either, but facts are facts.

  Isn’t 90% of the population in Tehran?

    Exactly.. it's like claiming the whole US should adopt far left ideology because that's what prevails in New York and Los Angeles.
