Quite the opposite, but shows how mature some people are. No, it’s not an issue of bitterness over not getting into medical school, rather I think that if you are going to go through medical school, that is a PRIVELEGE and as usual, Pakistanis seem to think it is ok to abuse PRIVELEGES given by society.

Society says: You docs do a lot for us, and so in return we give you respect.

That is why someone with the title “doctor” gets respect.

Girls who think it is some joke and do it to get better rishtas do not deserve respect, regardless of how many runs they do through medical school.

Dr. Shaista is simply an example, that nationally speaking, no one seems to have a problem with women who go into it, do not practice, and end up doing something else with their lives, when clearly there is a crisis in Pakistan regarding health care providers.

well said. that is so true.
