In a shocking display of harassment in Iran, a bizarre incident unfolded at a store in Shandiz when an unidentified man approached two unveiled women and promptly lashed out by hurling a tub of yogurt at them, striking both on the head. The violent outburst was caught on camera, showing the suspect's brazen act of aggression before he was swiftly subdued by a male staff member who intervened to remove him from the premises.
The exact words exchanged between the man and the women preceding the confrontation remain unclear due to lack of verification from CNN. However, the footage paints a disturbing picture of a perpetrator who chose to resort to a degrading form of assault rather than engage in a constructive dialogue with the two individuals. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the lingering issues of social intolerance and harassment faced by women in Iran, where modesty is often emphasized over personal freedoms.

. i mean, who throws yogurt at someone? like, what's the point of even doing that? it's just a waste of good yogurt 
. and to think this was in public, with cameras rolling... it's just embarrassing for the guy who did it. but what's even more concerning is that there are people out there who still think it's okay to disrespect others like this. i mean, women should be able to wear whatever they want without being judged or attacked. we need to keep pushing for more equality and respect in Iran, not just a quick fix with a tub of yogurt 
.
this is getting old I mean I get that the guy was being super aggressive but hurling yogurt at people? 
. its crazy how Iran is still dealing with this whole modesty vs personal freedom thing... i feel for those girls 
I'm not buying that the guy was completely out of his mind. I mean, sure, hurling yogurt at people isn't exactly the most rational response... but it's also kinda hard to blame him for being angry when you're in a society where women are expected to cover up all the time and anyone who dares to be different is seen as a threat. It's like, what even is modesty anymore? Shouldn't people have the freedom to make their own choices about how they dress and present themselves? 
what's wrong with people these days? 
gotta be careful who u mess with 
I mean, what's next? Tossing a plate of eggs at someone for not wearing the right outfit? This guy's actions are straight outta some bad comedy sketch, but in reality, it's super scary and dehumanizing for the women involved 
. It's just so bizarre and unproductive. Anyway, glad the staff intervened quickly to prevent things from getting worse 
this is so sickening... i mean, who does that? 
. and the fact that they were in a store, of all places, makes it even more mind-boggling. what if those women had been alone or in a situation where they couldn't defend themselves? 
and the worst part is that this kind of behavior is still normalized in some parts of the world, which makes it even harder for people like these women to feel safe and respected 
.
anyway i think this incident highlights how hard it is for women in Iran to live freely without fear of harassment or persecution. they're expected to cover up all the time but when they do, that's seen as oppressive not liberating 
we need more like-minded countries where women can be themselves without judgment 
seriously though, it's really disturbing to see someone resorting to physical violence instead of trying to have a convo. and the fact that they were unveiled (i.e., not wearing headscarves) might've made it even harder for them to de-escalate the situation... 
, this is just so messed up... I mean what's wrong with these people? Can't they see how hurtful their actions are? Like, a tub of yogurt to the head is not a funny joke, it's a serious physical assault 
, but actions can be just as powerful in their negative effects. We need to be mindful of our actions and how they might impact others. And if we see something that's not right, we should speak up and stand for what's right 
.
, but still, this whole thing just feels like a huge waste of time and energy 
.
We gotta stand with the women who are brave enough to speak up and fight for their rights even when it gets tough . This incident needs to be addressed and we need more awareness about how our actions affect others. 
The fact that the staff member intervened and subdued the guy without any issue raises some suspicions for me... was he a patsy or did he have something to do with it? 
I mean like what even is wrong with this guy?? He just goes around and starts attacking people on the street for no reason?! And to make matters worse he's hurling a tub of yogurt at them! Like who does that?! 
I was watching old episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer the other day and they always had these super empowering scenes about girls standing up to dudes who were trying to get all up in their grill. Now it's like we're back to the Dark Ages 
...I mean, can't people just chill? 
We're a long way from the days of the Spice Girls 
...let's keep pushing forward towards a world where women (and anyone who identifies as one) can feel safe and respected without having to fight for it
