Re: is it important??
and as for your view that any woman does not need education , i can honeslty say it utterly disgusts me how countries like pakistan "claim" to be islamic and yet they are the worst culprits when it comes to leaving their mothers, wives, daughters and sisters illiterate and unable to fight for themselves
I have to defend Pakistan here:
Pakistan is basically a developing nation and its citizans (in general) live in poverty. Thus, a family must make a decision on whom do they want to spend their limited income educating: the girl or the boy. Since, the girl will be married off it'll be a wise decision for the family to spend it on the boy.
Those families in Pakistan who are well off educate both genders equally.
