Aaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!! With all the Western media gleefully delighting in portraying Muslims as backward savages, I cannot believe you would be irresponsible enough to put a picture of those dumb fanatics who beat themselves with chains and swords as an accurate representation of Islam. The majority of Muslims, especially Iranians, are very modern, civilized and would never subject ourselves or our children to these ritualistic primitive and barbaric practices. Your photo close-ups with all that blood and gore serves no other purpose than to inflame the public opinion against Muslims more!!!

Regarding your article on Shiites, just another sign that it is high time we rid Iran of that savage barbaric religion that was inflicted on us by Arabs. We are NOT Arabs, why are we mimicking their horrible ways?

I do not believe this thing about Monster.com, is it for real??? What are we going to do about it ? Just sit passively??? Of course, we are Iranians!

Are we not exaggerating with this monster.com thing? Has anyone you know EVER found a job through that site? I know of no one. You find employment through connections, acquaintances, friends and family. If they don't want us to be part of their shitty little site, let them, who needs them?

I could not believe my eyes when I read the Sex Sultan: IT IS SO COOL! I never thought an Iranian magazine would have the guts to say things like that. You know what? It is true! This issue is encountered in our culture so why not talk about it instead of putting our heads in the sand? Also, it's good for a good laugh.
