Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's provocative president spoke at Columbia University today. The university's president gave him the glowing introduction he desrved, calling him a "cruel dictator" and accused him of being either "brazenly provocative or astonishingly uneducated" regarding his denial of the Holocaust.
When asked about the reported abuse of women and homosexuals in his country, Ahmadinejad responded," We don't have homosexuals. [in Iran.] I don't know who told you we had it."
One wonders if that is the case because of some previously unstudied Founder Effect seen in the genetics of the population of Iran. Perhaps his Islamic fundamentalist fascist regime simply exterminates all the homosexuals. Or just maybe people live in repressed denial and fear and can not publicly admit to the nature of their sexuality. In either case I would doubt that there are no homosexuals in Iran.
I'll never understand the unhealthy obsession the religious have with sexuality.
If you ask me, god seems a little too preoccupied with who we all have sex with.
Perhaps Mahmoud doth protest too much:

The hills and deserts of the middle east are like America's prisons. No homosexuals, just guys who fuck each other when there are women around. Besides, with are the men kissing men and cupping of balls instead of handshakes to seal a deal, the likely get all the gay out their system. Like a congressman who takes an intern on a weekend jaunt.
Correction Art, that's just the Republican congressman. :-)
As Bill Maher would say: "I kid the Republicans.)
