That's the real reason Pak can't progress much...
And yes it is nearly over but still in some areas girls don't go to schools colleges...early marriages...jobs not allowed even how much u r educated...
All this kills the talent π‘
@ bold: that's actually a problem with most backward areas in the subcontinent actually, not just Pakistan. It's a root problem and not unless our government starts taking action, such things will stay the same in certain areas. However, generally Pakistani women are progressing much faster than guys even when the latter are supposedly more free to do what they want. Like I said, I live in the states, and based off of my observations, I hardly ever see or hear about Pakistani guys doing something out of the blue with their careers for instance (of course there are exceptions)..but you'll always hear about Pakistani girls making the most out of there education and pursuing respected careers. Even in Pakistan, I think Pakistani women are very hard working in their respective fields despite the notion that Pakistani women are oppressed. Look at showbiz for instance..our writers are mostly all women. We have successful directors who are women..channel heads that are women..producers that are women, female models are more recognized than male models..Pakistani actresses actually have gotten meaty roles for years and are just as much respected as their male counterparts (and many, even more) and that is not the norm in a third world country. Look at Malala for instance..I may have my issues with how her story has been used and abused over and over again in the west..but what I will always find commendable is how when in Pakistan, she stood up for receiving an education in areas where girls aren't really allowed, and areas where raising a voice is actually pretty scary...and she was merely a pre-teen female. That takes guts..you'll hardly ever see Pakistani boys or guys speaking so openly about what they believe in.
