Allah o akbar. What do women WANT??!

Well, if Freud couldn't answer the question, I don't who else will. Maybe Iranian women will.

Nice to meet you, Bijan, and a very happy eid be shoma :)

hello hello and happy new year :)

You know, some blogger was suggesting that putting women who were defending their "constitutional rights" in prison was a PR tool for the IRanian government that:
Look: We have constitutional rights of women chartered ALREADY.

Dear Naj:Happy New Year to you too.
What this government has done, and is doing now is outrageous and simply immoral, but who is to tell them that they are the sinners themselves and make them to look from within. I wish I could do something. I just get more outraged and totally frustrated. You have no idea how much I ache when I here they have executed a bright innocent soul whose only message was the message of freedom and tolerance.
