Party poopers

"Under Iran's strict Islamic law, imposed since the 1979 Islamic revolution, men and women are banned from socialising with unrelated members of the opposite sex. But teenagers often go to mixed parties risking fines, jail and even lashes. Iranian Muslims are forbidden from drinking alcohol and only officially approved films and music are allowed.

"Iran's new police chief has vowed to crack down on illicit alcohol, music CDs and parties where people of the opposite sex mingle, months after promising a policy which would respect people's privacy. "The crackdown will be on corruption centres where mixed parties are held and gangs distribute alcohol and CDs," ISNA student news agency quoted Ismail Ahmadi-Moqaddam as saying.

"Young Iranians are victims of moral corruption. We will strongly react against it," he said.

Sounds a lot like Texas from what I remember of my youth. Any young Texans out there have a view of what it's like currently? Are you still victims of moral corruption?
