Iran Judge Closes Poofter's Zipper, Ignoring Pleas for Transparency...

In a preview of what poofter life would be in America under sharia law, an Iranian judge ruled against a gay bath house client who wished to adopt Western ways...Not liking the lack of style in the traditional thobe worn by gay muslims before entering the bath house, Ramses Hannu Menhet (or simply RHM) wanted to bring his flair for fashion to Tehran's homo society...

RHM, who traces his lineage to his namesake in ancient Lower Mesopotamia, found he liked the style and comfort of relaxed-fit Levi's worn in the "open fly" manner of gay westerners...When he was denied entry by the doorman to the Tehran Bath House & Goat Washateria until he zipped his fly, his protest carried him to the Supreme Poofter Sharia Court...

The court, which falls under the jurisdiction of Iran's Ministry of Steamrooms, upheld the doorman's decision and ordered RHM's fly closed...The judge, Ayatollah Leph te Rashitch, became enraged when RHM pleaded for transparency by leaving the zipper open, and left the bench to angrily zip it up himself...

RHM has found an unlikely ally in neighboring Israel as Rabbi Levty, who claims his ancestry from the founder of the Levi's clothing industry, Levi Strauss, called for moderation by allowing the change...Rabbi Levty's statement that "we are all the same men under our towels," drew sharp criticism from Ayatollah Leph te, who said, "You guys are nothing like us after your best parts get whittled off"...

The rabbi's pleas for leniency are not likely to gain support in the Israeli government as he is a member of a radical branch of the Rashidic Temple, and operates a kosher non-denominational bath house near a Taco Bell deli...RHM, who was sentenced to hard labor in the Tehran bath house laundry, is said to be thinking of converting to the rabbi's faith after serving his time...

During his trial, RHM presented evidence of a precedent set by an American politician (pictured below having his zipper opened for public viewing), but was overruled...
