#1 Their choice was a no-brainer: death / beatings or life with a measure of control. In spite of the screechy asshat NMM who drops by and calls me a pedophile because I've been to Thailand every time I encounter him (can you say "projection"?), I do not, of course, know the "game" is played in Iran, so I can't say if the average prostitute lives well or scrapes by, is constantly abused and/or ripped off by Police, suffers serious physical and/or mental harm from "clients", etc.

Rotten choice, but easy if you're not indoctrinated to equate the associated shame of that society with a death-wish. You can escape prostitution, if determined to do so, in most places - death is definitely final.

#2 For a culture that supposedly values the virtue of its women, strict Islam sure is awfully rough on 'em.

#3 Mike - DUH!

What strict Islam says it values and what it shows it values are two totally different things. Hypocritical, torturing bastards.

#6 Where is that Iranian Bitch that has been running around expousing the virtues of life in Iran for women? I guess once you dupe the Nobel commission you don't have to be an 'activists' anymore. Unless of course there is a political motive to them. Sad that these stories are far from unique.
