No. She doesn’t. She titled it A Pakistani Girl. A as in one girl.

Perhaps this was missed by you, you ignored it OR I failed to explain. Not sure.

As for the blog:

it was meant to create a certain kind of reaction. With an emotional touch.

Many Girls/women unfortunately do have a lot of social problems just like men and not only in Pakistan but outside Pakistan.

its just that the set of problems maybe different based on many variables not just based on differences of sexes.

The title: " A Pakistani Girl" is essentially a generalized statement.

its like saying " An American Girl" " A British Boy" and writing something unusual (read carefully please I said “unusual”) story to use it as a showcase. Hope this point is clear somewhat.

if it was written as " One Pakistani Girl" then it would have somewhat of less generalized but then it would not only look too realistic and… it would have lost the intended reaction altogether.

Now the blog writer would have been fine if he/she had written " Story of A Girl". A specific girl.

And the message would have been less dramatic but still effective.

Please carry on.

And your questions more likely are directed towards those who think somehow there is hatred against girls/women common in Pakistan or Pakistani traditional families.

Reading a blog and running amok with generalization is what is absolutely wrong.

Same site has other emotional blog and seems to be running on wild ideas like grandma slit her wrist when a man married to a Muslim girl named Shazia.

There is no support for ill-treatment of girls/women anywhere by me and I see no man so far who has approved it.

All my posts are/were against utter absurd stereotype shown by some posters. **

Girl or boy when born at least in my experience in any family I know are/were treated equally and there are great lovely families from Pakistan I know who have all girls and nowhere I see any remorse in any of the parents. Not that it would not happen here and there. But certainly not common as being portrayed by some.
