Why do you think these two countries (Iraq and Saudi Arabia) where you can wear whatever you want, you don’t have to wear hijab, niqab, burqa yet a vast majority of women 90% wears them, even in the supposed modernising Saudi

In Iran, even with strict hijab rules, some districts of Tehran, less then 50% of women wear hijab

Why do you think they aren’t evolving the same way? Especially when they have more “freedom” on paper

I think their friendship is so cute, Melissa said Kenzie told her if she’d been Christis age I’d be her best friend. And also on the show they had many sweet moments, also at Brooke’s wedding

Recent episode, the time stamp around 23:00-23:30, they said somebody read the text to Jess, telling them not to discuss it with her, but we clearly see Jess in the episode here confronting Abby while Kira showed her the message

So my question is are they actually still watching these episodes? Or just getting a recap?

Iran, Tunisia and Turkey are nosediving

I am Iranian living in Europe, I was planning on going to Lebanon this year, because I find it fascinating and it is more open compared to other countries In the region

Is Tunisia alright as a replacement? I have always been fascinated by it, I am gay but I don’t pronounce it and I clear my phone of any sort of indication(also since I go to Iran I do it very well)

So I’m Iranian In the west, my taxi driver the other night after a drunken night out was Eritrean, we began talking Iran war and how I dislike both Islamic Republic and Israel (&Pahlavi/America) and I ask him about Eritrea and the Eritrean government, I was shocked by his response, he was very pro government, I don’t know many Eritreans, but I was a bit shocked by this

Is pro Eritrean government sentiment common amongst diaspora, especially with so many Eritrean asylum seekers/refugees?
