Hello westerners, will you date us? I am moving to west next year and I have been wondering, cause I know many people don't perceive Iranians well. Will you or will you not? And why?
Will you date an Iranian girl?

I like ME women looks. Those a very pretty pictures. I am a Christian so only consider Christian women, but ethnicity doesn't matter. I love long black hair and many ME women have it as well as gorgeous faces.
You're beautiful! Iranians are very level headed and can be quite badass when needed. Kickass gorgeous women are a win in my books. Where in "West" are you moving? (Greetings from UK)

I'm starting off with Italy but I will hopefully leave to somewhere better when I settled, like North Europe or Canada.
Nice, so you're gonna gradually get colder and colder the further from Iran you go. Bring a jacket! 😜 Italy looks gorgeous so that could be a good jumping off point
I would not date a Muslim girl, regardless of her nationality, but I would date an Iranian woman if she was not Muslim (assuming that such women exist.)

There are some minority Christians and Zoroastrians, there are also bunch of people who get sick of Islam, I suppose those people live in any Muslim country.
You can't change from Islam to other religions legally so that is partly true, but there are some who are born Christian and they are fine, I know some.
I just started adding that today. If you look at my opinions on my profile I have 20 30 40 downvotes going back days. Has nothing to do with the last part. Just making people aware.
That's pretty crazy mate, you don't deserve the downvotes. It could be a bot targeting you. You could try to hide your profile for non-followers and post an opinion to see if the downvotes continue. If it doesn't, it's pretty easy to imagine how they do it.
@TallAnon I can't do that because INFLUENCERS have to have an open profile for people to follow. It's a huge security hole I know. GAG is looking into it because it could happen to any INFLUENCER.
I don't reject a woman based on her ethnicity but there are cultural things that come into play that might make us incompatible. For one, I am an atheist with a low opinion of Islam which would make me incompatible with anyone who is or whose close family is Muslim and particularly if they are extremely religious.
I would suggest that someone who is ethnically Iranian use "Persian" instead of "Iranian." In the United States a large percentage of the population considers Iran to be the enemy and won't want anything to do with someone from Iran but most Americans are too stupid to know that Iran used to be called Persia and "Persia" has positive connotations in American culture. Persian textiles, Persian cats, Ancient Persia etc. are views by most Americans as positive so I suggest using "Persian" instead of "Iranian" and technically you won't be lying to them.
I did know there were that many Turks in Iran. People who are ethnically Turkish who come to or live in the U. S. would find it easier to identify as Turks as technically Turkey is an ally of the U. S. While on the topic of Iran, what do the people of Iran think of their new president?
Absolutely, if I was single. Back n the 80s, I was good friends with a Persian girl at work. She was the sweetest person and very beautiful. The only thing that could be a problem might be culture and religion. But that can be true with any woman, and not all Persian women have traditional values.
Sure, if I was attracted- I'd imagine the differences between us are mostly political, and I'm sure the depiction of Americans in Iranian media isn't exactly glowing, either. People are people, and when you get them to sit down and talk together, they'll usually get along okay. Maybe not great, but okay. And stuff I've read and heard about Iran makes it sound like an interesting place, so we'd have a guaranteed conversation topic, at least.
You are beautiful but that is not why I would date you. Your nationality is also not a reason to date you or not date you. Are you a good human being?, Are we compatible?, Religion does not matter either. Plus I like meeting people from around the world. i always get a new perspective on life.
If those are pictures of you, you will have no trouble finding guys wherever you go. However, I myself am completely turned away by religious people, Muslims especially. I find Islamic culture to be primitive and ridiculous.

That is not me, I would say she is a bit prettier than me ngl. I am quite white-passing so I often thought of not fully introducing myself to people.
For me you could be the world's most beautiful woman and have all the traits I was looking for, but only one thing would matter. Your views on Israel's right to exist!

Are you from Israel? A lot of people are sick of Palestine's name due to all propaganda, and our money being shipped to their country lol.
I'm not from Israel, never been there either, but I do think it has a right to exist. Lots or Iranian people say though they would like to see it destroyed.
It depends on the person ofc, pro-Palestinians exist everywhere pretty much don't they? Just a month ago when the last conflict happened lefties were all over social media nagging about it.
Pretty much no unless her English is perfect. Flirting for me involves a bunch of word play and witty comments; I really fall flat when my date doesn't understand it and then the conversation just ends up being awkward.
PS: You might find this to be amusing. During my time with the Australian Army an Iraqi interpreter with whom I worked said of the Iranians: "The Persians ruled the Middle East for thousands of years. They have not forgotten this."
Sure , depending on her political stance as an individual. Is she secular, is she Islamist if she's Islamist how traditional are her beliefs. Those are things I'd consider if I seriously wanted to date an Iranian girl
Sure! If you're afraid of a negative reaction, an Iranian friend of mine told me he sometimes says he's from Persia instead. That sounds a lot more cool. Religion could be a problem, but it doesn't need to be.
