ESSAY ON THE FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO WEAR A PINK BIKINI EVERYDAY By Robert L. Huffstutter

IN THIS ERA OF ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY, MEDIA WARS AND NON-PARTISAN ATTITUDES, it is refreshing to think about the life of leisure that so often invades our daydreams. It is not shameful to take mind trips to that favorite resort you enjoyed so many years ago, or even as near as last spring. There is no cause to feel like you do not deserve time away from the daily grind now and then. No, as one who lives in the world's most independently diverse and freedom-loving nation combined, it is your choice. Your choice is what democracy is all about. So, as silly as it might seem on the surface, as shallow as some might want to make it, the right to wear a pink bikini everyday is truly a freedom to be cherished.

But of course, it is not the ambition of everyone, no. The thought of lounging about in a sensual and fashionable swim outfit is not a thought shared by all. This is understood and certainly as it should be. Imagine a nation of bikini-clad individuals hanging out by the poolside day after day; it is hard to imagine. This is why I have taken the time to include a short work of ideological text to accompany the photos in the set, Pink Bikini Shoot.

Nevertheless, the crux of our freedom of choice might well be founded on the right to wear what one chooses to wear. While we are taking care to be more politically aware of the rights of all, let us not ignore our basic rights, our rights guaranteed by our Bill of Rights. Thus, the right to wear a pink bikini everyday remains a fundamental freedom for each and every individual who is a mature adult. It is all a matter of choice

My hopes are for a democratic Iran. It is a crime that one of the oldest nations in history, one of the cornerstones of civilization and knowledge is now in the hands of men who want to crush the spirit of education and knowledge. I believe that if Iran was governed by an intelligent and freedom-loving people like your group, Iran would become another center for students throughout the world, thousands interested in Iran's great contributions to the world before it became a nation opressed by men whose ideologies were those of tyrannical control.
