where are the Dixie Chix?

Let’s book them for a gig in Tehran. Send a few Hollywood pukes along too.

Most of the intolerance-I have a form of autism-and ill behavior I have experience has come from the “enlightened” sages of the left. My name’s Barb-so my gender is obvious
Conservatives actually walk the walk.
“Progressives” like to hear the sound of their own voices-but not much else.

Then explain why your party has a small fraction of women?

F*cking “feminists”

More like femin-opportunists

They don’t give a rats balls about Iranian women

Or ANYONE

Just their pocketbooks.

Dumb hoes

lol I can tell you really do care deeply about women issues.
The second one of these Iranian women you guys pretend to care about asks for equal pay…you would call her a dumb
feminazi.

They are preoccupied with flogging themselves for having to condem the Letterman comedy routine.

How would they do that? Perhaps to keep a fetus in their womb a few extra days? Maybe to say thank you to a man that might hold a door for them? hahaha The possibilities are endless!

Neda’s murder means the end of the mullahs.

I hope you are right, but I doubt it. Women are like livestock to those Muslims. Rubbing out a few cattle is insignificant to those morons.

Has anyone heard from NOW on the murder of this woman? Maybe it doesn’t matter to them because she wasn’t specifically targeted because she was a female?

There are people posting here in support of liberty and justice for Iranian women, and mourning their brutal killings. But you aren’t.

You might get a better idea of how bad you sound.

austinnelly on June 22, 2009 at 11:09 AM

How do you sound? Shrill? You are really reaching for an issue on this one. You are putting words in our mouths and now you suggest playing word substitution games. Are you a member of the PC Thought Police?

This is my fear too—one step forward and two steps back. In all but the most oppressive Islamic countries women have made some steps forward–hard won and welcome steps forward. They attend college now, they are active in professions, they run businesses–these are all positive achievements and I would not like to see any backlash from the hard liners in Iran eroding these. Change there seems to come very slowly. The women in Iran need to continue,for now, along this route–keep change slow and imperceptible and above all, happening!

Try this thread from last night.

After hours of discussion, the two sides of this never convinced the other.

Why have women become such an integral part of the protests?

I hope it is a sign that the younger generation is ready to grant women greater rights. But I suspect that if the revolution is successful, the Islamic insanity will rear it’s ugly head and the very people who helped win the revolution will be put right back in their place as second class citizens.

I’m crying over them all…do not presume to think you know me or how I feel. And you’d be better served not to presume to think you know how the men of HA feel about this situation either.

If you’ve read Reading Lolita in Tehran, you know that even in the case of domestic abuse it is impossible for women seeking to get a divorce in Iran to get a fair shake.

That is a really wonderful book.
