#BBCTrending: Dancing woman flouts rules on Tehran Metro

The latest video posted on a popular Iranian protest page shows a woman dancing wildly on the Tehran Metro.

Nearly 900,000 people have watched the video on My Stealthy Freedom, a page dedicated to pictures and videos of women flaunting Iran's female dress code.

Perhaps more controversial than the scarf however, is the dancing. Dancing in public in Iran is outlawed - a group of young people who filmed themselves dancing to Pharrell Williams' song Happy were arrested earlier this year.
