Hi Princess - Y,

Its sad ins't it that women get to such desperate levels to have to sell themselves legally, or to forcefully sell their daughters or those females legally in their care. What corrupt government and legal insitutions Iran must have currently to allow such things - its basically a legally way to further abuse and deman women in Iran.

I have never ever been to Iran - although I hear beautiful stories from parents about pre-revolutions times. My parents left before the revolution when I was 3 yrs old and my reading and writing is basically at zero, but I still love the culture and try and keep abreast with the news of whats happening in Iran etc... And yet I get really sad and actually embarrassed that I come from a country that has sunk so low. Maybe my next question is naive, but why don't the Iranians oppose these laws and the government - they once did which resulted in the revolution.
