Hey, How are you everybody?
ok I heard from a friend that they give you bs about Iran in the media and that most people are intrested to know what really happens here, so I thought I'd make a thread about Iran. since I don't know what you want to know (or is there any?), I think it's better to make this a Q&A kind of thread. I'd be happy to answer you.
Peace
 
look, i didn't ask for this at the first place, ok?
yes iran is next to iraq, and no, they are not the same. next time, use your imagination a bit more, k?
something like "how do you spell Iran?"
 
What's the situation for women, homo-, bi- and transsexuals and non-muslims (and moderate muslims) in Iran?

BTW, are you Iranian yourself?

EDIT: Nevermind, I checked the location in your sig.
 
Why does Iran hate our freedom?

Is missionary the only acceptable sexual position in Iran?

If two trains are on the same track ready to collide with each other at a speed of 120 MPH each, does Iran profit?
 
If I have three apples and John has four oranges, how many bananas does Iran have?

since homosexuality is forbiden in islam, it is illegal to perform such acts outdoor, for example, you can't french-kiss a guy in the street and touch his arse and expect not to be arrested. (do you get the point?) it's the same with alcoholic drinks, bi- and -transsexuality, since it's also considered taboo between the people.
non-muslims live as great as muslims here, just in my school there are about 30 jews and we have absolutely no problem with them.
as for women, i don't see any difficulties for them here, the only law they should obey more than men, it's the hijab. again that's because the society doesn't accept someone without hijab, it's an islamic country, men are also not supposed to for example wear shorts and go to the streets, people don't accept that here.

1. I don't get the point? EDIT: if you're american and think we hate you, no. we hate how your politicians think about the world but we pretty much love the people.
2. no, why do you ask? it's not like we don't have kamasutra here.
3. can't you just clearly tell me what you mean?
 
Why does the president constantly say on Western world TV that he wants peace, but on Iran TV and Media he does speeches about killing americans and Jews and death to everyone who opposes iran?

Is Iran like Kazachstan?
like how?

it's taken out of context ...like how a canadian newspaper reported that it was mandatory for jews to wear arm bands ...turns out that was just a lie ..then again the National post is about as right wing as they come in canada


question: do iranians still harbour resentment towards the US for overthrowing democratically elected Mosaddeq?

from Iranians I've met, most say that fundamentalists are not the norm in iran; most people just want to live their daily lives and are unconcerned about politics/religion ..is this true?
 
is true the current president was involved in the kidnaping of a USA embassy?
 
This time I ask what you, as a person, think.
Do you think that homosexuality is something negative?
Do you think that women should be forced to wear viels?
Do you support/like your president?
If you had an oppertunity, whould you move to another country?

we can't say they are unconcerned, people live their lives, when they want to, or when they feel they have to, the say what they think it's right. about religion, it's not something you could say they care about or not, every person, depending on his or her belief, is somehow concerned about religion, and that's not only here, but all around the world. if you mean most people don't care about religion here, as if they don't want islam, I would say no.

about mosadeq, it's not something we'l talk about it everyday, like "why did US do that?" of course, iranians didn't and don't and won't like US, or any other country to diside about their country.

no

There is no evidence to suggest that Ahmadinejad was one of the captors during the 1979 hostage-taking at the U.S. embassy in Tehran; the CIA itself has suggested he was not part of it. But here you get into a tricky position because the Bush administration is unwilling to contradict the American hostages. Five of the hostages have claimed that Ahmadinejad was one of their captors. The CIA, after a laborious investigation, has not accepted that claim. But politically, it's difficult for the Bush administration to take a position different from those who suffered 444 days of captivity

Why Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denies Holocaust?
why if someone thinks it's real, won't let anyone discuss about it? what happened to those people that wanted to investigate and see for themselves that it's true?

is true the current president was involved in the kidnaping of a USA embassy?
no, and it wasn't kidnaping, no one was harmed. and nothing happened, they were all released without any charges.

Is there Half Life 2 in Iran?
yes

Why does the old Ayatollah look like Sean Connery?
why do you think i should answer you again?


you hav mcdonald's there?
no, and we don't need it. there are lots of fast-food resturants here that if mcdonald's had a branch here, it wouldn't succeed.

it's sick.

me, no, not really, that way those who truly belive in it and those who don't won't have a problem, the problem is the aftermath.

yes, i voted for him.

i've been to a lot of foreign countries, i do have the oppertunity right now too, but i like my country better. i've been to canada for example, my aunt and uncle live there, but i won't like living there. i mean i don't get it, what's the problem with here?

Does your milk come in bags?
it comes in plastic bags, bottles, and like those you have that print "missing" images on, what do you call that?
 
Would you say your opinions on homosexuality is the general consensus?
Do you think its wrong for a man to go out in public with shorts?
Does it offend you that some countries are trying to legalize same-sex marriage?

I was merely being facetious :p. But it's nice to you know you don't hate all of us.
 
Do you think its wrong for a man to go out in public with shorts?
no, I don't, but people don't accept that here, ok let me put it this way, just like your people won't accept cousin's getting married, our people don't accept men wearing shorts and going out in public. it's just that simple.

Does it offend you that some countries are trying to legalize same-sex marriage?
lots of countries do lots of wrong things, i don't care. it does't offend me, but i think it's wrong and sick. how would i or you feel if we didn't have a father and had two mom's instead? i think it's sick.

You havn't discovered the wonders of Alberta, where it's legal to marry your cousin and wear shorts!

But why don't you have a problem with it and most in your country do? Wouldn't that make you an outcast to believe such things just as we outcast those who marry their cousins?

i meant the fact that people there don't like hearing two cousins got married.

well it's a belief, it's not that easy to change.

Do you think it will change? I'd like to think that Iranians get hot every now and then and want to wear shorts.


Sounds pretty ridiculous to me... here we are in America debating issues that revolve around human life (abortion) and raising children (same sex marriages)...

... and in Iran you can't wear shorts?
 
Is there a law that states that if 2 men are in the same bed naked for no good reason they get hanged? I think it was in Iran that they killed 2 young men for this.

well we've discussed those a long time ago, and i don't see why it's that much hard to accept that iranians don't like to see men wearing shorts and going out in public. it's not like it's that important...

why in the world would two men be naked in the same bed for no good reason? i told you, it's forbidden in islam to be a homo, but unless someone sues you, nothing happens.

i have to sleep now, it's 2 AM here and i have an exam tomorrow, see you later everybody.
 
I heard some soccer palyers were shot on the spot in some islamic country cause they were in shorts at a border

cause they're gay? i read a few months ago that if you weren't sharing a bed due to lack of space or otherwise, you are considered gay and subsequently executed. As far as I remember it was in Iran...all I know is that is one harsh law.

just because something happens in an islamic country, we shouldn't think that first:all islamic countries are like this, second: that islam says kill those who wear shorts (which doesn't) and third: that it was in iran.
i could assure you that it wasn't in iran, and the other thing is that wearing shorts is not forbidden in islam, any shorts that covers till the knees are ok, from shorts, i mean those who cover less than that.
no one kills a soccer player for wearing shorts, and if it does, it's got no relation to islam.

STRONGLY DENIED, what if i wanted to sleep with my uncle or cousin for example? but naked, why the hell would i do that?
