give valid reasons and then we will discuss it.
Re: in a Muslim Society, when a girl lives by herself, what is wrong with it?
Because most muslim societies are in countries like Pakistan/Middle east which arent as modern as most other parets of the world, and where even living alone for a man is not safe/normal. A girl living by herself just cant be safe usually, she has to go shopping, leave the house for work etc. Lets say the toilet breaks or something, she has to call a plumber to come fix it. So that guy comes over and shes alone with this weirdo she doesnt know and what if he does something to her? Basically I dont think anyone should live alone if they cant help it, guys or girls, but a female is definetly more vulnerable living alone.
Re: in a Muslim Society, when a girl lives by herself, what is wrong with it?
that is what my argument is... women are physically weak that is why.
if they are clean and have no secretive lives, nothing immoral about themselves.... still, the society and men in it, will pounce at her.
that is rather pitible. u're right that no one should live by themselves. it is too lonely.
but, for work or for just getting some time off from all the relations, and being able to go into one's own place , alone, why women become the target of gossip and nosy people.
its a violation of her privacy and of her person.
a man would not like that, and he will be fine. as it is thought that men are not pursued by women. but, i think many men are. and a time comes, when they have to tell women, to stay away from them.
society has a lop sided vision. i think and that is what i hope undoes itself.
thanks for ur comments. i concur with u.

Your question is good however, I don't wanna answer it is very very relative and not so common situation. I'd say it depends on individual circumstances. I don't know, don't wanna make any comments.
Re: in a Muslim Society, when a girl lives by herself, what is wrong with it?
she doesnt want to? i dont want to get into that, if its for school or work she shud have a roommate at least, otherwise her safety is at risk and there is sum1 to keep an eye on her.

Hello,
To the first post:
If you are asking this on moral grounds then i think there is nothing wrong. Everyone has the right to live his life the way he/she wants, If he/she isn't disturbing the life of others.
Regarding Safety:
It is false to say that women are weaker and men are not. I think to a potential trouble maker men and women are equally weaker. Lets assume someone comes with an itention of crime, armless men/women are equal for that person/group.
Power as i see it here, is in independence, intelligence and financial security. If somone is financially secure and intelligent he/she can live safely. And if not then there are many potential problems which one can face irrespective of his/her sex.
Whats the reason then:
Our society doesn't allows women to live alone, because there isn't any role for lonely women, there can be a role for a lonely man. But trends are changing now females in bigger cities are finding meaning in living alone. And thats good, if they feel good about it.
