See here for "rahbar goes to psychologist (1)"

 

Translation for none Farsi speaking people:

Rahbar:  I don't know why I feel like women don't like me

Psychologist (thinking):  I don't know either!  I like him very much!

Monda,

There goes the irony.  The other male psychologist thought he was crazy and couldn't help him, so now he is seeing a female psychologist who has a crush on him.  Stand by for part III.

That's fine.  You're entitled to your opinion.  

Funny story.  There's a woman who we know, who lives in Iran and visits the U.S., who wears the hejab while sh'e is in the U.S., and who actually used to work (at a low level) at an IRI ministry until a few years ago. She is a family friend.  My parents always called her "hezbollah" behind her back (I know-not nice, but...), and avoided any political discussions with her.  Anyway, she was at my parents's house about a months's ago and she brought up the uprising in Iran...and, boy...you should have been there...she unloaded on Ahmadinejad, Khamenie, etc...my jaw almost dropped...at the same time, I was of course, pleasantly surprised.  Her dislike of the regime mainly stemmed from the injustices that she saw in Iran today, including the brutal crackdown on protesters.  I think that there are a lot of people like her out there.

You know I am a fan of your writing and sense of humor.  But I gotta disagree (respectfully) with you on this 1.

I think the implication that a great majority of hejab wearing women in Iran are fans of Khamenei is accurate.  There are probably SOME mohajjeb women that are no fans of Khamenei, but probably 80% are fans; if not of Ali Geda, of some other Abaa and turban wearing SOB like him.

To these women who are "motezaher" another motezaher like an akhoond is the only choice.

I like your cartoons, BUT

by anonymous111.2 on

this one is a bit inaccurate.  I know quite a few Iranian women who are observant Muslims, wear the hejab and are against the IRI and Khameni.  Unless there is something else in the female character's presentation (which I do not see-please point out if there is one), I believe that the cartoon is an unjustified stereotyping of observant Muslim women in Iran.  It implies that the woman is a Khameni fan just because she is wearing a chador.

Just my two cents...

Good one Omid

Although I doubt Rahbar would seek a Female therapist since bulk of his issues could be male figure-related.
