Talk:Parliament of the Islamic Republic of Iran

message: Question in regards to the selection process of who got to serve in the Majlis prior to the Iranian Revolution and if it is different today.  I noticed that they did hold elections, especially if items were being passed that granted women's suffrage, but I think it is a safe assumption that they didn't vote for the shah.  So in the selection of who is to serve in the Majlis, was that left up to the plebiscite or did the Shah choose the members?  
Thank you in advance.

Does anybody know if there are female members of the Majlis and if so, how many seats are taken by women? Thank you in advance, Bontenbal 20:40, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)
