Of course. The Islamic Republic of Iran is also secular. Everyone knows that.

chairs look full, where else you want them to sit?

looks like a women is sitting on the chair towards the left of the photo.

Wally are you suggesting the women all just happened to turn up late after the chairs were taken?

Suppose you were one of the men in those chairs and the women turned up in their tents and started sitting on the floor. Would you offer them your seat, or would you inform them that all the chairs are full and that it makes perfect sense for them to sit on the floor?

Re: The boy accused of blasphemy who cut off his hand Reply #33 - Jan 23^rd, 2016 at 6:52pm John why do you think those men are standing at the back and the women are sitting on the floor in the middle of the aisle? Do you think the men just happened to prefer standing and the women chose to sit on the floor?

I think its outrageous that those poor men at the back were left without a seat and were shuttled to the back of the room.

And I wonder how that woman got a front row seat? Must have been mistaken for a man surely.

But surely the important question here is were they standing in a line or a circle?

You can say a thousand words, Gandy, but the picture says it all.

Post a picture, stop wanking.

And I'm still waiting for you to explain the woman sitting in the front row.

You're stretching it a bit Gandalf.

Even if you might argue that 'The Koran does not define women as subservient', can you honestly argue that women are not required to assume a submissive and subservient role in 'Islamic' societies in practice?

That doesn't explain why none of the men, who are not writing, don't think to give up their seat.

Would you give up your seat for one of them Wally?

Journalists write standing up all the time. It's pretty hard to be a journalist if you can't do that. Can you imagine a journalist cornering someone of interest for a few quick soundbites then asking them to wait while they sit down on the floor to scribble a few notes? How far are you willing to stretch reality to accommodate this photograph?
