[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To our visitor: thank you for answering the question about the self flagellation being common in other Shi'ite populations in other countries too.

Can you answer a question about the superficiality and materialism of the ultra wealthy? Is this common among wealthy Iranians? Why do you think that is?

Also, I've known about a handful of Iranian women and every single one of them has had plastic surgery on their nose. I've met Indians, African Americans, South Americans, etc...yet none frequent the plastic surgeon as much as Iranian women. Is it because of their wealth that they can simply afford it and thats why they get plastic surgery (similar to many non-Iranian women getting plastic surgery in Beverly Hills)? Or is it a dissatisfaction with what genetics has given them?

You mentioned that the Iranians in Iran are very modern. Can you tell me what you deem to be "modern" then from  the Iranian perspective? And what percentage of the Iranian population is indeed modern?[/quote]

Actually, I'm not the visitor, I'm a PP who has done a lot of travel in the region.  :)

FWIW, plastic surgery is crazy common in Lebanon as well.  The post-surgery nose bandage was a badge of honor in some circles.  :roll:  You'd even see women in full abaya/hijab from the Gulf visiting during the summer sporting it.
