A new study from an Iranian sociologist reveals a high level of gay encounters amongst men in a (supposedly) sexually-repressed and homophobic Iran ...
Acts of homosexuality are punishable by death in Iran and the nation's leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad famously said homosexuality didn't exist in the country.
Masturbation, which is also illegal (good luck policing that), is enjoyed by 73 percent of men and 26 percent of women, according to the study by sociologist Parvaneh Abdul Maleki.
The study, reported in the Iranian press as a study of sexual 'deviance', shows that 16 percent of men have had at least one gay experience, while 4 percent of Iranians had been in a gay relationship.
Since the Islamic revolution in 1979, it's estimated that between 3,000 and 4,000 people have been executed after being charged with participating in gay acts.
