Sexy babes on Iranian streets- II
Nose job
Just walk for a few minutes in our streets (the wealthier the place, the more the number) you would see women and girls with adhesive stripes on their noses. Those who lack it, have a sharp-tip nose (which is not an Iranian type of nose) revealing that they have had the operation before.
You may call them ugly or phoney, but you see, they are 'fashionable'. They are following the latest fashion. They watch satellite channels, pick the models and imitate them. That's why when you walk in our streets, you can't believe this country was supposed to be 'the central spot of Islamic world' as the previous leaders dreamed of.
Why the whole fuss?
Well, I believe it's some kind of resistance our women do against the 'should's and the 'must's. To me, it's quite different from what goes on in other parts of the world. Here, the women love to be beautiful and look sexy basically because the system wants them hidden under chadors, ugly and sluttish. The women dislike to hide themselves, just because men may feel horny. It's the only reason? Of course not! It's a simple truth: human being hates to be looked down and be patronized.
We remember just 8-10 years ago, at the beginning of hot seasons, when we had troubles with religious police and vigilances, arresting, beating and insulting the women in the streets just because physiologically, they couldn't bear the dark thick long mantueaus in a 40 centigerade hot weather and dared to wear something brighter and cooler.

What's going on right now, is exactly a reaction against the pressures we have been through for about three decades. Call it an extreme reaction, but whatsoever it is, the streets are less gloomy these days.

Thank you for posting these. Where are the women in long black covers?
You are welcome! Women in black chadors are still in millions. The more you go to the poorer areas, or to more religious places, or to smaller cities, the more their number. BUT the difference is that just 10-15 years ago, the whole society was in black. Now, it's different.
what can you expect, when thousands of our decent people are executed

or in prison. you can not blame those who just choose to pay attention to external looks.
