I'm all for women in government. There seems to be a whole lot less violence and aggression when women run things. I say that in all sincerity.

BTW, don't be so quick to praise Iran's treatment of its women.

TEHRAN, Iran (Reuters) -- Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Sunday called on police to crack down on immoral behavior in public after a storm of protest over a kiss at a film awards ceremony.

Actress Gohar Kheirandish kissed the forehead of Ali Zamani and shook his hand as he collected the top director's prize at a ceremony last week in the central Iranian city of Yazd.

Under Iran's strict Islamic laws, implemented after the 1979 revolution, physical contact between unrelated men and women is forbidden.

"People expect a society where their youth are not exposed to immoral hazards as soon as they leave the house," Khamenei said in an address to police officials, state television reported.
