Unclothed Women Turn Men Into Beasts
“A top Shia cleric in Iran has said that unveiled women are a serious danger to Iranian society as they cause men to be “transformed into beasts”.
“Women without the veil are a danger that the authorities underestimate,” said Hojatolislam Seyyed Ahmad Elmalhoda, a powerful cleric who leads the Friday prayers in Mashad, a site considered sacred for Shia Muslims as it houses the shrine of Imam Reza.
“This situation is very serious in that if men see these bad women, they will turn into beasts, and then the whole of society will have to pay the consequences.”
“According to the Shia cleric, women who do not respect conservative Islamic dress rules are “sources of all that is bad in society.”
TheStateOf . . . Dress. Dude sounds about right to me. We men have little self-control when women are walking around showing it all. Ladies, imagine if brothas didn’t haggle you everywhere you went…the world would be a different place. There would be no need for TSO.

Of course we know that men just can’t control themselves. They are, after all, the weaker sex, right? We can’t possibly put the burden on men to control themselves. Since we are on self control, it’s really not a man’s fault for shooting a brother for stepping on his shoes. I mean, those are his shoes for chrissake’s! We should just all wear Crocs. Imagine a world where we didn’t have to get our shoes shined or worry about them being scuffed by some inconsiderate Kneegrow!.
And even in that world, I think there would still be a need for TSO.
Rich,
Asking a man not to freak out when he sees a woman with her tits and ass out is like asking a dog not to eat your hamburger if you leave the room to get a soda. No matter the right or wrong, it’s just not going to happen.
Are you seriously comparing men oogling women to that old wives’ tale about men shooting each other for stepping on each other’s shoes?
I’m serious to the extent you are serious that men are incapable of controlling themselves.
“Asking a man not to freak out when he sees a woman with her tits and ass out is like asking a dog not to eat your hamburger if you leave the room to get a soda. . .

That’s funny Big J! Are you seriously considering the self control and discipline of men to that of a mere beast? Wow. If your analogy were accurate, TSO would be useless, as no amount of teaching could enable a man to gain (and keep) the upper hand on his inner lusts and desires. Right?
Men can control themselves. Little boys cannot. There comes a point (some) mens lives where we can still acknowledge the beauty of the female form without the need to conquer it.
Big J has always been a lusty dog.
That’s a good point, Cookie.
Am I comparing men to dogs? In a way, yes.
But I’m comparing them to dogs when their is food laying around. I’m not saying that men live like beasts 24/7; it’s only when there are boobs and booties in our face that many men - not all - can’t handle it.
They say in Italy dudes will just roll up on you and grab your ass. Same in Mexico. Kinda funny, but really not. To me, that’s a very interesting societal problem.
I would agree insofar as women are the arbiters of morality in a society.
If men acted badly and women witheld the poopoolala like in that Greek tale, things would change in a hurry.
men harass me when I’m in the grocery store with sweats and a baseball cap on. Islamic countries where women are covered from head to toe have sexual assault problems just like we do. I don’t think what women wear is relevant to men acting like animals.
Interesting point, Pink.
” Men harass me when I’m in the grocery store with sweats and a baseball cap on.” -pink
So you got it like that, Pink? Sweats and a baseball cap? You must be the shiznit!
Seriously though, if you get sweated when your lounging in sweats, what do you think would happen if you walked through Ralph’s in the Ladera Center wearing a bikini top, ultra short shorts with the booty cheek hanging out the bottom and some high stilettos? You think you’d get the same response? Of course not.
Your point just proves that men are attracted to women. And if your point is that it doesn’t take a half naked woman to attract a man, then your point is valid. If you’re saying that the response women get from men is the same regardless if they’re wearing a sweatsuit or a skintight miniskirt, Big Wayne is gonna have to disagree.
Men are visual creatures. Skin turns us into 15 year old boys inside. Now how we handle those emotions says alot about us. But having them in the first place is totally normal.
Big Wayne, I agree that having a response to women is totally normal. But I don’t agree that the level to which a woman is clothed determines whether or not a man acts inappropriately. If that’s who he is then that’s who he’s going to be regardless of what a woman is wearing. Hence the men that act like fools in the supermarket.
I think that saying that Iran will become a country of beastly men if women don’t cover up would only make sense if men only harrassed, assaulted or raped women who were exposed and we already know that that’s not the case. So if they want men to behave appropriately (whatever they deem “appropriate” to mean) it would make more sense to recognize that the onus is on the men.
Oh and I most definitely do have it like that, just in case you’re wondering
Pink is a hottie! Posting pictures is a must!

Do you happen to have one wearing a bikini top, ultra short shorts with the booty cheek hanging out the bottom and some high stilettos?
I mean…since you have it like that.
Or if you have one rocking the exact same suit Vida has on, that one would suffice too.
…I guess you weren’t lying when you said men are visual creatures huh?
So…was that a no?
LOL!
And yes, men are visual creatures. True, what women wear does not give us license to act inappropriately or like beasts.
But let me ask you this, would you prefer to be recognized for your external beauty regardless of your attire, or would you prefer that your beauty go forever unnoticed?
These are your only 2 choices.
By “forever unnoticed” do you mean people would think I was ugly or I would just blend into the background. Because I couldn’t do ugly.
I wanna hear more abotu the “jackhammer!”
Pink, I agree with you. Nothing wrong with paying women a compliment but too many so called men take it too far.
