    MY TWO CENTS...
    WHILE EVERYTHING ENDS UP BEING POLITICAL...
    THE UNDERLYING & UNIVERSAL TAKE ON THIS SITUATION IS HUMANIST & FEMINIST...

    WARNING : While homegrown terrorists are abusing women’s rights and murdering their doctors; Uncle Sam is supposedly bringing democracy to the world and saving the fair sex from the hands of obscurantism & repression. http://current.com/items/89940372_from-child-chewing-monsters-to-child-raping-mo...

    So before being all pontifical about other cultures; a little relativism would be in order...

    Good luck with this very touchy subject indeed ;)

    ...& just in case you really want to get into the nitty gritty of it all, this subject rapidly goes beyond the borders of Iran...

    Religions, universally, treats women like shit !

    "The three monotheisms, animated by the same genealogical death instinct, share a series of identical contempt: hatred of reason and intelligence; hatred of freedom; hatred of all books in the name the one & only; hatred of life; hatred of sexuality, of women and pleasure; hatred of feminity; hatred of the body, of desires & impulses. Instead of all that, Judaism, Christianity and Islam defend: faith and belief, obedience and submission, a taste for death and a passion for the beyond, asexual angel and chastity, virginity and monogamic fidelity, the wife and the mother, the soul and spirit. In other words, life crucified and celebrated nothingness" – Michel Onfray

    "Remember there's a big difference between kneeling down and bending over." -Frank Zappa
