It's disheartening to think that after a year of protests they had such little effect on the government that they decided to punish everyone rather than change. They also made it illegal to make fun of the hijab online, "promote nudity"... and to drive for a woman who isn't wearing a hijab

Iran's parliament has passed a controversial bill that would increase prison terms and fines for women and girls who break its strict dress code.
Those dressed "inappropriately" face up to 10 years in jail under the bill, for which a three-year "trial" was agreed.
It still needs to be approved by the Guardian Council to become law.
Currently, those not complying risk a prison term of between 10 days and two months or a fine of between 5,000 and 500,000 rials ($0.10-$10.14 at the black market exchange rate).
On Wednesday, members of parliament voted by 152 to 34 to pass the "Hijab and Chastity Bill", which says people who are caught dressed "inappropriately" in public places will be subject to a "fourth degree" punishment.
According to the penal code, that means a prison sentence of between five and 10 years and a fine of between 180m and 360m rials ($3,651-$7,302).
