That is also true for men, even where there are no religious laws. Now you go figure.
And I say this as a man.

Perhaps you haven’t met any of them successful women. Well, that backward narrow-minded society does not let them flourish much. Or that so-called society only sees their flourishment as being mothers and wives and serving them meals and taking care of the homes all day.

Pakistan is, was, and probably will always be a male-dominated society, where men are threatened by success and empowerment of women. Where their “mardangi” is challenged and under a threat whenever a women overtakes them in anything, from career, work, accomplishments, etc.
Their mentality is that the woman should remain in the 4-deewari. Be dependent on the men around her for everything.

Every now and then we hear honor killings, abuses, acid attacks, all in the name of so-called “ghairat” of these coward (islamic) men.
I’m glad we got out of that hellhole. I don’t think that place will change in my lifetime, or even centuries. I don’t have any hope for it.

Never said men are not happy.

I placed commas when I wrote ‘Women’. Did not want to generalize.

Essentialy when it comes to being not happy or satisfied, people of both gender one way or other are same.

No. I have met a lot of ‘successful’, happy and content women from all over the world including Pakistan. No idea why you assumed.

What is wrong with women mothers or wives serving the family meal?

Is that a new wave of exploiting women and telling them there is abuse in it if they cook or serve meal at home? Seriously?

Not only akistan, a lot of countries and places in the world are male dominant in some way and female dominant other way.

Can’t generalize.

No there is no such generalized mentality that women stay in char deewari or be dependent on men all over Pakistan. Which world do you live in my friend?

Do you not see housewives all over the world and man of the house is only breadwinner?

Why be so melodramatic? Been watching too much TV dramas lately?

Those men are not “Islamic”. Please stop making senseless rhetoric. Does not help anyone.

Problems do exist in Pakistan but some people just love to live in deep depression selectively reading news.
