In 2015, the CIA World Factbook provided the following percentage breakdown of ethnicity in Iran: 61% Persian 16% Azeri 10% Kurd 6% Lur 2% Baloch 2% Arab 2% Turkmen and Turkic Tribes 1% other Note: In 2018, The CIA World Factbook stated that Iran's ethnic groups are Persian, Azeri, Kurd, Lur, Baloch, Arab, Turkmen and Turkic tribes.2 The CIA World Factbook no longer provides percentage breakdowns of Iran's ethnic groups. |
Rachel Dolezal totally understands your feelings. |
I think you meant to write this for the ‘Eastern European’ who refers to herself as Persian. |
Reading comprehension. The E.European poster clearly said that she uses the term (as in, refers to people from Iran as Persian) because she had a lot of Persian friends and that was how they identified. |
Ideal? Ideal what? |
dunno, but my white DH who has dated all kinds, only wanted to marry me, a non white woman. I'm seeing lots of other white men marry non white women, too. |
| She’s gorgeous |
She looks like a good looking woman in her mid forties. My peers and I are all 43-48 or so and look pretty much like that. It's normal. People have a warped idea of what women are supposed to look like in their forties. |
So, the hundreds of Iranians I know are all "affected". Cool, I'll tell them. I've literally never known an Iranian who didn't refer to him or herself as Persian. And that includes Iranians of all colors and religions. |
I'm not rich. Nor do I live in a particularly wealthy neighborhood. But this woman looks like a typical forty-something. In the first picture, they look like a dumpy couple out for date night. |
| She’s gorgeous. So chic! |
Came here to say this exact thing. |
+plus fillers and Botox |

Did she or her worst enemy bump this trainwreck of a thread?
You know who I think is a gorgeous, ageless Persian woman? Shohreh Aghdashloo, who turns 70 next year.

This woman looks a decade younger and is gorgeous. There are beautiful women fifty and over of all ethnicities and races. I do think that darker skin and hair ages better - it is easier to see skin damage on pale blondes, and their brows/lashes start to look sparse (I should know, this is my family). Of course wealthy people can “fight” aging better, too. |
