charlesheckel Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Thanks, but no thanks. These ladies are not in Hijab, and I can do without a coronary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seismiccwave Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I don't understand why we have to put people into an ethnic category. Why aren't those girls simply "Beautiful Models" instead of "Persian Models". If we put middle eastern men into an ethnic category, that is called ethnic profiling. When we put "Persian" girls into an ethnic category, is it ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesheckel Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hansen,<p>There's an old Arab proverb beginning "Every man should have seven wives" that credits various ethnicities with various desirable traits, and in it the Persians got either beauty or wisdom, I forget which. From this I take it that Kambiz may be simply asserting that the young ladies in question are quite attractive, which they are. You, being apparently young and vigorous, are willing to profile them as beautiful, and I profile them as competent to produce a coronary. He could also be asserting their suitability for various ethnic roles and costumes, which they haven't demonstrated, and which I challenged. Hajib refers to traditional dress--the head scarf--and more generally to a Muslim variant of the general duty of wise women in all cultures to keep the gorgeous down to a dull roar. They aren't doing the latter in any way, shape, manner or form, and I am keeping a prudent distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seismiccwave Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 LOL, I wish I have seven wives with various ethnicity. I also wish I am young and vigorous. I agree that different cultures tend portrait beauty in a different manner. The linked site is portraying these women in a beautiful way according to the western civilizations. I have no clue what qualified them as Persian. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
