 <description>&lt;p&gt;kimmy&lt;br /&gt;
I am a male.&lt;br /&gt;
My wife is more important to me than anything.&lt;br /&gt;
Why?&lt;br /&gt;
Because she showed me the plight of women.&lt;br /&gt;
I saw it in the 60&#039;s. I tried to understand. I tried to learn.&lt;br /&gt;
My wife opened my eyes to the plight of women.&lt;br /&gt;
I am 5&#039;10&quot;, my wife is 6&#039; tall.&lt;br /&gt;
We are still in love.&lt;br /&gt;
All women in the world deserve  what we have.&lt;br /&gt;
Equality, love, understanding, mutual respect and the right to say whatever is bothering them.&lt;br /&gt;
My name is Kimmy and I accept this commercial.&lt;br /&gt;
Give women their right.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Iranian feminist magazine under threat, </title>
 <link>http://www.opendemocracy.net/blog/grace_davies/iranian_feminist_magazine_under_threat</link>
 <description>&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
This blog has previously featured writing from and about women
in Iran,
in particular the inspiring &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.we-change.org/english/&quot;&gt;One Million Signatures&lt;/a&gt; campaign. It is therefore with
sadness that we received the following news from Nayereh Tohidi of California State University
about the revocation of the license of the Iranian feminist magazine, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.zanan.co.ir/&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Zanan&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Nayereh writes:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
	Dear colleagues and friends,
	&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
	&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
	&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
	&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
	As you might have already heard, on
	January 28, 2008, the Press Supervisory Board of Iran backed by the
	Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance has announced revocation of the
	license of &lt;em&gt;Zanan&lt;/em&gt; magazine, Iran&amp;#39;s most prominent and important feminist
	journal.
	&lt;/p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.opendemocracy.net/blog/grace_davies/iranian_feminist_magazine_under_threat&quot; class=&quot;read-more&quot; title=&quot;Read the rest of this posting.&quot;&gt;Read the rest of this post...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.opendemocracy.net/blog/grace_davies/iranian_feminist_magazine_under_threat&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
