I am confused by your comment. This song is about the current state of Iranian women (and all women in general) and about liberating them. If Googoosh's stage persona symbolized a form of liberation for Iranian women in the 70s (as you have alluded to), why would it surprise you that she would sing this?
because she portrays them as voicless, identity less, victims of their "bad" culture, As an Iranian man i accept that Iranian women are oppressed, discriminated against and resticted; but by no means Iranian women are voiceless and identityless; in the past decade the number of women writers in iran has multiplied by 13 folds, ordinary women are active in policial campaigns and Iranian women are by far the most educated in Iran's population
I agree with you... I don't think the portrayol of Iranian women as voiceless or "slaves" is correct and I do think Shahyar Ghanbari (the lyricist of this song) was reaching too far with this metaphor. However, in general, I do think by Googoosh singing this it is in a way empowering... and patriarchal hegemony does remain a problem for all of us.
the only line that it gives a feeling of empowerment is when she says these women are my sisters, and dont get me wrong i LOVE GOOGOOSh i have her autograph on my wall and cherish it like no other but i dont see my idol singing songs like this
It is a beautiful sond and...look at her legs,like god draw it the best possible way!!!!she should wear short skirts more often!!

I just dont see Googoosh singing this song someone who beautified the voice of Iranian women, modernized their sexuality, and broke social barriers
