Nosy

What's the hot news these days in Iran?
The story of an actress who was believed to had had sex with her boyfriend while she was being filmed secretly…

You can hear the story from people of different ages with different backgrounds: educated, illiterate, you name it. You can find the porno movie everywhere. Every one talks about how "bitch" this girl is; but the majority has missed a couple of points:

Correct me if I am wrong, in Western countries you could see Movements and Reforms on sexuality so these kinds of stories don’t make a commotion in their society. In Iran, as this is considered to be a taboo thing on TV or the newspapers people (mostly men) want to have the illegal copy of the CD; the thirst for these things has "declined" in other words, the above mentioned actress has acted as the new Reform in our society. We moved ahead a step in sexual matters, now it's not that strange to see a night party of this and that soccer player or actress!

Today's School:
All the students (about 300 teenagers) were taken to the amphitheater to be given a lecture on how to behave at home. It was the most ridiculous speech that I have ever heard in my whole life. Read and then decide! (I took some notes as he was giving his speech)

"Try to get up early in the morning and don’t forget to say your prayers, it's so refreshing. After school while you are on the way home don’t go anywhere with your friends but home! Where you get home try to be neat and tidy, never ever throw your clothes on the ground. You will be reported by your parents then. [Would they ever believe such bullshits?] Study three hours a day any time you are in the mood. Go to bed at ten and so on and so forth..."

I did my best not to laugh while he was talking sometimes I couldn't. Now I understand why we "educators" make a habit for students to interfere into each other's affairs. In other words, WE make it part of their behavior.

Before the bell rings I started having a conversation about Chinese food culture and when I told them that they eat anything that has four legs one of them raised his hand and asked if they eat humans as well.

I told them that I could bring them the photo of a Chinese man who was eating a fetus to get more customers for his restaurant. They made all argh sounds as it was lunch time. I did get a thrill out of these sounds. Finally we came to this point that not to judge a lot of people by one…

Did I make a change? I hope I did:)
