No gays in Iran

[Jeff Lebowski]

Well, there you have it folks. They don't abuse homosexuals in Iran because they just don't have any:

Asked about widely documented government abuse of women and homosexuals in his country, Ahmadinejad said, "We don't have homosexuals" in Iran. "I don't know who told you we had it," he said.

He also repeatedly said that women have freedoms in Iran and refused to comment on reports that their freedom is severely constrained.

Of course, he never said why they don't have any gays...

This gives him lots of credibility on the women's rights issue, eh?

How is it that here in the 21st century such a complete and utter nutjob like this could be the leader of a large and powerful country like Iran? Scary stuff.

All the Iranian gays are in yahoo messenger chat rooms. Mindful thinks they aren't really Iranian, and that it's a big conspiracy to make Iran look bad.

I am telling you some of these countries (Islamic) look exactly like Countries would look if fundamentalist Christians took over the countries. Both groups have a lot in common.

Oh I do.

I only visited yahoo chat rooms a time or too, and most were entitled: "Tehran Gay Sex." So I left. After all, Tehran is not a convenient location, and I already live across the street from Oklahoma City's gay district:

I lose road access to my home one Saturday per year because all the crazy Christians park on my street to protest the gay pride parade.

well, Yahoo quoted him as saying "in Iran we dont have homosexuals like in your country and its apparently different from " we dont have any "! not going to assess which is more accurate ,CNN or Yahoo though.

I have talked with my husband ,who is a physician and has been working in different rural and urban areas for alomst 14 years ,and he told me that he has never encountered with any gays for all these years ..
unbelievable ,isn't it?

but its what he constatnly was saying tonight ,and he isnot even a conservative .

i dont think it is going to prove of not having any gay here though.

so whats up with gay community here in iran ? i have no idea either
why ?? frankly becuase itsnot something accepted by iranians , culturally religiously ,rationally and scientifically ...

when i say gay ,i mean people who consciously/deliberately choose to be gay , not some guys and girls who might enter yahoo porn flooded chat rooms started sending/receiving privet messages. since i dont see the huge probability of whether they want to follow this approach in their real life too.

If punishment is so extremene, what person would admit to being gay?

In Nazi Germany, do you believe sequestered Jews admitted to being Jewish?
