I think your point here is that women's bare chests are naughty, and men's aren't. And you can't see that this is just a cultural idea, not an absolute.
No, I don't think women's chests are naughty - I like 'em fine. What I said, specifically, was that they could ban men from displaying their chests and I would not have an argument.
And somehow, you've decided that to be human, you must be able to show your face.
To be known, to be something other than a walking towel, yes...
Makes sense though, its probably easier to stone a person to death when you've never seen, and can't see, their face.True. It's also easier to administer a lethal injection if you don't look the guy in the eyes while you do it.
Absolutely.
The problem here, is that if it's the religious beliefs that govern the nakedness standards, then it's a bunch of priests deciding, not the people.
The priests hold influence, not a vote.
Besides, it seems obvious that what the individual Iranians want is NOT the same as what their dictators want.You thought that about Iraq, too.
I still do. Even suffering through a maddeningly biased "documentary" the other night, all of the Iraqis were glad Saddam was gone. Thought its true they probably would have preferred our help the FIRST time out... _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
