I've been trying to figure this out ever since I lived in LA. There's a ton of Persians out there, most of them are doing quite well too! If you see a big body SL600 being driven in LA 9 times out of 10 if he's not a star he's some kind of Jewish or Persian dude. The women are sexy, the guys are cool but... Why do you guys call yourselves Persian instead of Iranian? I know it sounds sexier but if I remember correctly that area hasn't been called Persia in centuries. We have a ton of people here in NY from the same area but no one calls themselves Persian here. Please let me know what's the deal?

well, I always thought people knew the term 'persian' more then the other terms, so I've always reffered to it as that...Backov makes a good point, although I've never thought about it in that way...But I can see how some 'persians' would call themselves 'persians' because of that.
