The problem is that they really can't afford being beaten up. I doubt if many Iranian women would think twice for taking out Hijab. The problem is that they really can’t afford being beaten up.

To make females wear veils because males can't control themselves seems to me now quite a ludicrous attitude, but it isn't that many years since the Victorians in England regarded a woman showing more than an ankle below her dress to be of dubious virtue!
