I Want To Be a Hairborne Ranger

A year ago, the Iranian authorities rigged an election. And now this:

An Iranian fashion organization has issued a new list of culturally appropriate haircuts for men, possibly indicating a new crackdown on male attire after years of strict rules for women, Iranian media reported.

Although the Ministry of Culture has yet to officially adopt the styles presented by the Veil and Modesty Festival, the private organization said approval is pending. It would be the first such rules for men's hair styles since 1979 Islamic Revolution.

"We introduced the hairstyles to the Culture Ministry," said Jaleh Khodayar, head of the group, telling Iranian newspapers Tuesday that it had been approved informally and an official statement would soon be made.

Clearly, based on the photos accompanying the article, the regime plans to humiliate Iran's men in a death blow to the Green movement.
 
Not exactly living the life of sex and danger.
