These are some of my favorite contemporary Iranian women in Iran. This is just a brief list, only the ones that I could find a picture of with a quick search, and in no way this is a complete list. These women are not all about teats, but it's good to know that they have them, more than some men have balls, including myself, to be honest with you.

Oh, I have no doubt, MPD
by Princess on Wed Mar 10, 2010 08:00 AM PSTWhat I meant by men like you was men who have their priorities straight and can exercise enough self-restraints not to drool over every naked body they see. :)
Thank you all

Thank you Nazy Kaviani for your passionate comment and the additional names. I wish I had more time yesterday to write in more.
Thank you Souri for your support.
Yolanda, thank you for showing so much interest in our culture and your concern for human rights violation in Iran.
Latina, or under any other name, you've always been a great supporter and I really appreciate it.
Patriot, thank you for the name and the link.
Marge, thank you for mentioning the name of Zahra Kazemi. It's a shame that the real culpirts in her murder are still walking around free, but one there will be justice.
Thank you Azadeh Azad for the link and your support.
Thank you Anahid Hojjati for your hopes of government that would appreciate the contribution of Iranian women in the society.
Princess, there Iranian men everywhere who understand the key to Iran's liberation is the "Iranian Woman".
AsteroidX, your comment is appreciated.
Mona 19, I'm glad you also liked this blog.
Gavazn, I have nothing against "Mellons", it's the appropriateness of it on the International Women's Day that I was concern about. Thank you.
capt_ayhab, ALL and EVERY intelligent, brilliant and hard working Iranian mothers, sisters and daughters is added to my list, as always. Thank you.
Mr. MPD
by capt_ayhab on Tue Mar 09, 2010 02:21 PM PSTSuch excellent choices.
May I suggest adding a few?
ALL and EVERY intelligent, brilliant and hard working Iranian mothers, sisters and daughter to your list.

by Gavazn on Tue Mar 09, 2010 10:54 AM PSTThis should have been top blog on Womens Day. It is really considerate of you to write this. I think the "Mellons" blog is still getting comments though ...
A good blog to read :)

ام پی دی ,متشکر از وبلاگت درمورد زنان ایرانی نویسنده , وکیل ...
Anahid HojjatiTue Mar 09, 2010 05:18 AM PST
ام پی دی , ممنون که لینک گذاشتی به زنانی که واقعأ شیرزن هستند مثل شادی صدر , سیمین بهبهانی , شیرین عبادی و دیگران . متاسفانه این زنان در ایران مورد آزار هستند .
به امید روزی که دولتی در ایران داشته باشیم که از چنین شیر زنانی قدردانی کند نه اینکه آنان را دستگیر و زندانی بکند .
Happy Women's Day everyone
by Azadeh Azad on Mon Mar 08, 2010 09:05 PM PSTThank you, dear MPD, for this blog. The following is a list of Iranian women who have made achievements in different domains, from Politics to Sciences to Arts.

We shall overcome,
Azadeh
Ps. Marge, why do you think Zahra Kazemi was nuts?
as nuts as she was
by I Have a Crush on Alex Trebek on Mon Mar 08, 2010 07:31 PM PSTThe brave, late Zahra Kazemi. Her murder exposed this regime and its international support system.
My favorite Iranian woman...
by Patriot on Mon Mar 08, 2010 05:37 PM PST...is Mrs. Mahlagha Mallah. She is a 92-year old environmental activist in Iran. She has tried to save trees, forrests, and ecosystems all over Iran. She is an inspiration to all Iranians, men or women.
Her wikipedia page: //fa.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%85%D9%87%E2%80%8C...
Her photograph: //1.bp.blogspot.com/_lkuPoKVyNKw/SB-x8h-l0KI/...

by yolanda on Mon Mar 08, 2010 07:56 PM PSTHi! MPD,
Thank you for your timely blog! My favorites are #2 and #3 on your list. I read a lot about Simin and blogged about her....the lady is very brave, cool, and patriotic. I hope she gets nominated again and wins Nobel Prize before it is too late:

P.S. IRI banned Simin from leaving the country on Women's Day:
