I have never once had a bad experience with the police in Iran. In America I've been arrested several times for small offenses that I've never been guilty of (always won in court), but in Iran a single police officer hasn't ever been so much as unpleasant to me.
Something that's stood out to be about Iran is that US citizens who have problems there are usually ethnically Iranian (look at the names under the Iran entries here). Would you say that's a fair assessment and if so is it because Persian Americans are targeted or is it just because so few US citizens who don't have that ethnic background actually travel there?
I'd absolutely love to go someday (I'm a white American). So much history and culture, food is amazing, and while I wouldn't get my hopes up about bedding any I love the look of the women.
I really couldn't give you a definite answer, just an educated guess.
For the most part the only thing to worry about in Iran is creating some kind of political unrest. Don't try to walk across the border. Don't try to overthrow the government. Don't try to preach another religion while belittling Islam. You get my point. Aside from that sort of thing, just have the sense to not do anything stupid like openly talking about alcohol or trying to finger bang a girl on the bus.
I think what I just said applies to anyone who goes to Iran, and even Iranians who have never left the country. I don't think Iranian-Americans are more likely to be effected in any way. I never felt like anyone was treating me differently.If there is in fact a higher proportion of Iranian-Americans getting in trouble, I would imagine it is because we allow ourselves more liberties because we assume some sort of infallibility with the laws. I myself did things I probably shouldn't have.
In fact, most Iranians love America. Me being from America was ALWAYS a plus with both men and women. I'm not saying some people in Iran would have disliked me for it, but I didn't experience anything like that. The worst reaction I got about being American was some girls not caring, and even that was rare.
Your biggest impediment to getting laid in Iran will be language. Most Iranians suck at English.
Your second issue will be Iranian girls being cock teases and the time and effort involved into bedding most of them.
You probably have an advantage in getting an Iranian flag if you live in LA. In Iranian you will have an intriguing presence because of you being American, but it is a tough group to get with.
If you're interested in seeing Iran, I highly recommend it, especially if you study the language for a year or so.
