Most of the prostituttes

by Iraniandudeee on

Most of the prostituttes there are russian, eastern european and Arab
themselves. Just cause they were smuggled through Iran doesn't make
them Iranian/Persian, and the few iranians that do work there were
stolen and smuggled when they were young... But of-cource there aren't
any articles who mention Iranians working as prostitutes in dubai, it's
all Russians, Eastern europeans and Arabs.I can only find article about
iranians in dubai as prostitutes and that article sounds highly biased
and racist.

Why is he in cali?

by smhb on

I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek,

Why do u think he is in Ca? This is the biggest porn site on the planet. Prostitution is huge, nude modeling is very profitable and popular, drugs and alcohol are readily available, men and women with cash ready to employ these women are all over the place, weather is great, hollywood is close by, Ca is a magnet for women from all over the world seeking fame. This is the MARKET!!

We are the biggest consumers of drugs, alcohol and sex on the planet.

Report him for what? He hasnt broken the law and you actually think the local cops and politicians dont know about whats going on? All these girls / women going in and out of these houses in some of the best parts of OC and ......... You gotta be kidding me.


I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek

that's just too crazy. why is he in cali? not las vegas?

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

This story is too crazy. You need to expose this person to the authorities. That makes me sick.

I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek,

Just look at the thread. There have been other instances too.

Back to ur inquiry. As a first step and a good place for you to investigate is your local community and city. 

Take a look at the biggest porn businessess and who runs them. The distribution. Who recruits girls and women? The Russians are a late comer to this game but they are brutal and merciless as the rest of them are.

I have heard of this guy in OC (no names), to be more accurate somewhere close to RSM who has a huge house and has mostly persian and turkish girls coming and going for nude modeling, porn, sex parties and etc.... Oooooops he is a jew by the way and the girls are predominantly muslim. He uses them as sex toys for his pleasure and his friends pleasure and a lot more.

''Esmesh bade ama...

by Haj Agha Encino (not verified) on

For all of you folks who are eager to get into geopolitics , and find excuses for these profesionals, let me refresh some memories with you.

I remember back in 06 in Dubaï , this iranian prostitute told me precisely :

''bebin, jakeshi o jende bazi esmesh bade ama kheili shoghl e khoobi eh, poolesh ke harf nadareh''

She used the word SHOGHL and was smiling while saying this. I swear to God that this 100% true.

> Reality is

by Another Lost Iranin in Paris (not verified) on

The reality is that iranian girls are into sex, no matter where they are. And this is NOT a bad thing to say this loud and clear.

I can't even recount how many times during a conversation with non-iranians (from L.A, D.C, Hamburg, Sweden and so on ) we came to the embarrasing point where they were trying to tell me, (trying not to be offending) that iranian girls in thoses cities had a bad reputation.

Now don't get wrong, I have a lot of respect for iranian women generally speaking. But let's be honest with ourselves for once, iranian girls enjoy sex, just like brazilian girls or white south african chicks. That's their thing.

It has nothing to do with perspectives, regime, education or family. It's a national thing, just like koobideh kabob.

Tahirih - read closely. I did not confuse this with marriage

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

I said that marrying for money, or a certain lifestyle, is no different. did you watch the entire movie? did you notice what these women want is what most middle class  women like to have in capitalist societies? Prostitution isn't just walking up to a man in a car in an ally anymore. Did you seen the young woman the Governor of NY was banging on a regular basis? She wanted this lifestyle too. MONEY does this to people. It also causes people to buy and sell other people. Slavery, prostitution, they are all evil in their own way, but they are based on money..... which some marriages are encouraged by. Why is that confusing??? It's about money. It makes the world go rouuuuuund as we saw in Cabaret :)

smhb: you joking? that got scrubbed? that was interesting

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

Obviously the people Zion links from the wing nut message board came by and flagged it. It's easier to just delete and not answer about it I guess. Let's move on. 

What you said was interesting though. Human trafficking is something I have been interested in. I know it's a big beast, but where do the tentacles lead? I have never gotten past Eastern Europe, but what you said about Israeli involvement, even as a conspiracy theory is curious. I mean, how much money does someone want in Eastern Europe? Where the hell does this billions of dollars off of flesh and children, women go? I would love to know. But if you tell me, you'll have to kill me.

Since my comment on the ring leaders was censored by our pro zionist ediors I wonder how u were privy to that piece of commentary?

I would like to know if our editors / censors are as sensitive about muslim sensibility or it just applies to jews and zionists.

When Iran is Free-"Another Lost Iranin in Paris"

by Luigi Milani (not verified) on

I agree with "Another Lost Iranin in Paris". If Iran secures a free democratic republic prostitution will increase. What people don't understand is that "Girls just want to have fun." A lot of women want to enter the sex trade. The sex trade is lucrative. If you have ever been in Vegas, by the way, prostitution is illegal in Vegas, the Strippers drive the best cars. When one compares the salaries of strippers to prostitutes one finds that prostitutes are wealthier.
A lot of feminists believe that women should have a right to enter any job even prostitution.
No one is talking about sex slaves or exploitation. The subject is women who want to get paid for sex. And let me tell you in a secular Iran the economy will no longer be backed by Oil revenue, it will be backed by income tax collected by high class prostitutes.
American men are willing to pay a lot of money to get in bed with an Iranian chick. I saw the movie, "Body of Lies". That idiot CIA agent played by Leonardo DiCaprio was willing to leave the CIA, power and money, and live in piss poor Jordan with that Iranian chick GolShifteh Farahani. And Leonardi didn't even get a hand shake. And Leonardo paid for a meal. If you ask me he has "chump" written all over his face.


Tahirih

To me the question is.....

by Tahirih on

What if all these young women had  material and emotional support available to them in their countries? would they be choosing to have sex with these men?

If the answer is yes , then so be it. But I am sure the answer is no.

They do this because of social , emotional and material poverty.

lets not confuse this with , marriage!!

> if IRI is removed : Iran will be worse than Thaïland

by Another Lost Iranin in Paris (not verified) on

I was speaking with my friend Pantea from Tehran the other day . As she truely said to me : if one day Iran becomes free, it will the worse sex destination on planet earth. Way, way, way worse than Thailand.

Don't blame it on the regime . We always had an issue when it comes to sex. The Shah himself khoda biamorz was a big time womenizer.

> Al Irani Dubaï , tips

by Haj Agha Encino (not verified) on

Aight folks, here is my experience of Dubai as an iranian hashahri who has lived in Dubaï for a year:

. the MAIN place for iranian prostitutes is in a shady hotel called Dulf Hotel in old Dubaï. it's basically a cabaret with a cheezy iranian singer (sometimes 2) and a tiny dance floor. Once you enter the place, agha Keyvan greets you and gives you a table. Like every club, bar and disco in Dubaï the place closes at 3 a.m. So you'd better be quick , otherwise the 3rd and 4th generation iranians from Sharjah (dressed like Emiratis but speak persian with a thick abadani accent) will have the best ''tables''... Everytime the singer starts a song, all the prostitutes stand up like one man and dance for like 5 min or so. Then you just ask agha Keyvan to bring you the girl you're interested in. You will rarely see a man dancing , except when they're really drunk. I heard that Tehrani and Shirazi men come to Dulf Hotel for the week end ( !).

You can also order zeresk polo ba morgh, koobideh, or baghali polo and mahiche. Shisha on demand. Typical iranian fruit platter is automatically served (and charged 100 DHS, $ 20).

. The other hot spot is the Hyatt in the Creek area (they show the place in the video). Fairmount hotel on Sheikh Zayed Rd and Shangri La (bar, 1st floor) are pretty happening as well.

. Now, on their ''days off'' , iranian hookers hang out in a place called Arman Cafe . They served an wasome ash there by the way. It's located opposite of a famous iranian restaurant called Abshar (where IRI officals sometimes gather).

. Many of these girls go to the American University of Dubaï (AUD). To maintain a living, they had to go into this business. Most of them live outside Dubaï : in Sharjah or even Ajman (40 km away).

.Any question , let me know.

prostitution another gift from IRI!

by Anonymous irani (not verified) on

After the Islamist in Iran took over the country,the first thing they had people saying, was down with USA,England,Russia,Israel.This automatically made a bunch of countries Iran's enemies.Then the Grand Ayatollah wanted to export his revolution to other countries.That made more enemies for Iran.So the best way to slow down the spread of Ayatollah revolution was to start a war.The war consolidated the regime ,but it brought with it inflation and that brought poverty and poverty brought many ills to Iran including prostitution.

Marriage IS very sacred. I agree. WHich is why marrying for $...

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

is so so wrong. This is especially true when people have children. bratty rich kids with parents who have loveless marriages. Ever seen them? Look at George Bush our president. Look at Barbara Bush. The original Hillary Clinton.... sort of. 

All I mean is, there are people who prostitute themselves for money. Marrying someone for money is the same thing.... it's just a longer term agreement! Marriage SHOULD ideally be about love and all that good stuff. But let's be honest with ourselves. You would take the bald executive over the sensitive assembly line worker most times. The same is true of these women who are in Dubai, willingly. They do this because as the Russian lady said - "this is where the money is". Another prostitute, she was my favorite, Maria, she came on camera and said "I want to find my soulmate here."

by pishi (not verified) on

My comment was about marriage. To me marriage is very sacred (I’m not against gay marriage by the way) and what do you mean by blurred, if you mean Anna Nicole Smith type marriage then I agree with you. And about Dubai I am with you on that too.
The place is the Las Vegas of Middle East; I find it quite cheesy and fake. I really have no desire to go there unless I really have to.

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

While I always love a story about hypocrite Israelis (I've read about the ecstacy trade that starts in Israel for instance), can you point me to some more info about these top ring people? Any info would be great. I always thought it was just some shady Russians. I blame everything on shady Russians

Human sex trade

by smhb on

Human sex trade is wide spread. Iranian girls who run away from home are taken out of Iran and sold in various countries including Dubai and other gulf countries.

American girls that runaway from home find themselves in porn and prostitution and are also sold internationally primarily in south east asia.

Russian, ukranian, hungarian, czech and other recently freed eastern european girls and women have met the same fate.

Bosnian women besides being raped by their serb tormentors were forced into prostitution and slavery all over europe and the world.

African women from various countries specially the ones that are war torn meet the same fate on a daily basis.

The biggest beneficiaries of porn in the US are these people. Just look closely.

Dear Party Girl. Thanks for posting this.

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

I hope everyone has a chance to see the entire movie. It is very sad to hear an Indian "PR worker" endorse prostitution and say that it makes her feel safer that it is available to the men in the city. How sad. 

I also hope you see the part where she talks about how this journalist, and her camerawoman had their hotel room ransacked IRI style!!! How they had their things confiscated in the airport. How the hotel did not want to help them and call the police. How brave of them. 

Again. I hate Dubai. I hate it very much. I was very happy when the REpublicans failed to give them the port deal they wanted so badly. Small justice... but still. I was glad when they were shamed publically. I hope these stories continue.

Anonypishi. It's a fuzzy line except for HUMAN TRAFFICKING

by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on

Prostitution happens everyday in many forms. What bothers me about Dubai is not clean regular old fashioned prostitution. There is lots of human trafficking in Dubai. The New Yorker sent someone to Bulgaria to investigate this heartbreaking system. Most of them end up in Dubai temp or permanently. I will never step foot in Dubai. It's an anti-semitic, Iranian hating place. Iranians are not the same class as Arabs and I can't support such a place. Call me crazy, call me Islamist. Whatever. I also think it's stupid to pay a bunch of hard earned money to say you went skiing in the desert. Dubai = everything that is wrong with the world. 

Many of these women are stolen. They are mothers, sisters and daughters who are scammed into thinking they'll be models. Consider how an adolescent and rebellious young girl would be attracted to this proposition.

Add to that the fact that the cops in these E. Euro countries turn a blind eye to traffickers. A lot of bad things happen in Iran, but they aren't the worst offenders in this. India and Dubai and E. Europeans are.

Dubai is the Best, forget Amsterdam and Nevada

by Koroosh Kabeer (not verified) on

This is true freedom. The women want to get into these jobs. No one is forcing them. We middle easterner men are busting our humps to get to Amsterdam and Nevada's brothels. If we only had known that Dubai is slamming in the sex scene we would have never immigrated to the US or Europe. This is what Democracy is about. Anyone opposed to this type of freedom must be a Hizb'Allahi.

do you want a room with or without a girl?

by ./. (not verified) on

That was the question that an Indian hotel manager asked when checking him in. It is strange that Dubai have gone beyond the pale. Should we wait for an Iranian-style revoultion there soon? This sort of corrpution of society and ethical values were one of the roots of Iran's revolt.
