Wow! You're so used to your own puritanical system that you can't even see 
the many ways your government restricts your freedoms in the name od 
"decency". 

I'm encouraged that you can see how the Iranians have a similar 
puritanical ideal; it means that maybe you'll be able, by mediating 
carefully, be able to see the same things operating in the USA.
