Tehran Targets Tan Lines
April 29, 2010 5:42 AM   Subscribe

With the success of boobquake, we can only hope that someone will take up the charge for tan lines. Ayatollah Kazim Sadighi the cleric who warned that women who dressed immodestly disturbed young men and the consequent agitation caused earthquakes is now focusing his attention on the tanned women of Tehran. The "dress code" police have strict orders to arrest any woman who looks like she has a tan because if you've been tanning then you haven't been wearing your burqa. via dodsonandross

Brings a whole new meaning to the idea of going back to the dark ages.

Wait. If the burqa covers the areas you could tan...how could you look like you have a tan when you are wearing the....*head asplodes*

Man, these boobquake people are seriously making me reconsider my deeply fundamentalist religious views.

Oh, I also notice that the blog you link to is also the one you list in your profile. Buh-bye.

Also, I thought boobquake was a fiasco, since there WAS an earthquake.

If they can tell you've got a tan, aren't you already in obvious violation of the law?

Tan-through burqa's would seem to be the solution.
