Iran May Require Hijabs....for Cartoons

[Roegerland]

Oh man that's funny

But seriously if you're Iranian, I'm very sorry.

[Rusozak]

To quote great words of wisdom...

[Atheris]

Well, the story doesn't specifically say it, I'll admit to that, but all woman, I think, will mean all females in one capacity or another.

I just hope a moderate wins Iran’s elections in June.

Iran has elections? Huh. I assume they're more like North Korea or China's elections than the US's or Germany's.

Somewhere in the middle. The Guardian Council ultimately sets the direction, but multiple parties are allowed to run, and the vote was only ever rigged once in 2009.

I'll bet votes are rigged in every election to some degree.

In a way. The Guardian Council decides who gets to be on the ballot, and their reasons are not always religious in nature.

That election was also the one where a moderate reformist had a chance at winning before being denied the opportunity. But even if he did win, there's probably somebody else in control behind the curtains.

Oh, the Ayatollah isn't behind the curtain in any sense. Everyone knows he has the real power, as he's shown in this fatwa.

Hey, I didn't say it was an opaque curtain!

Kinda a mix of the two leaning a BIT more towards US style.

[Glorious Hong Kong]

Iran censors female Olympic athletes

Mmm. Nice black bars.

On a more serious note, why can't men wear the headscarf?

"Lower your gaze". Pfft. Who do they think we are, rapists?

The funny thing is how ineffective the censorship bars are.

I will take it as a compliment that they could not censor my body on the TV because I was sprinting or doing gymnastics too fast.

Always thought you were a guy. Did you transition or something, because I could've sworn your sig originally had you down as a guy. Are you Twicetagram and JYPE by any chance? You're both Burmese women living in Singapore. Or is Twicetagram a dude? I can't remember now.

Also, the video's fake. But this one is very real.

Seriously, what Muslim woman showers with their hijab on?!

It's a satirical shampoo ad from Malaysia.

Like Hong Kong basically. Fakers gonna fake.

Oh no, so sorry for the lack of clarification. I just mean that I will take it as a compliment if I am an Olympics woman and they couldn't censor my body quickly. ^^

I'm still a guy and nah, Twice and me are two totally different people. And we are both dudes. ^^

While it’s speculated a lot of Ottoman rulers were bi, a lot of them were just rumors started by the Greeks (for, ya know, fairly obvious reasons), and in most of the Islamic world, gay poems were meant to just be funny rather than taken as actual indicators of homosexuality.

My close companion stands united with me, through the blood and the fire. Never surrender, victory is yours.

"Oh my God this Muslim poet must have been totally gay."

It's so sad that thanks to toxic masculinity, the bond men once shared is now seen as "gay."

I mean, they literally had paintings and manuals of full on man-on-man relations (that I am not allowed to post because it's not PG-13). Suffice to say, it isn't because of toxic masculinity.

There’s actually a Spongebob episode in like, Indonesia where he and Patrick are celebrating Ramadan.

This one was always my favorite.

They're an illiberal democracy. They have different parties but all the parties are islamist.

If the Shiites are issuing fatwas against anime, they can't be all bad.

I'm sure there were gay men in the middle east back in the day. But some of the things people interpret as evidence of "people being gay" is downright stretch Armstrong level shit.

"These two figures killed while embracing one another during the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius that destroyed the ancient Roman city of Pompeii were both men. Clearly they were gay, because there is no other possible explanation for two men embracing one another during a natural disaster."

Someone once said I must be gay for saying I love my brother. MY BROTHER.

“Hey, bro. We’re about to die!”
“Wanna have gay seggs?”
“Sure!”
