^ salwars as in salwar kameez !! short form !!
But I feel this was a girls only event as there are no boys in the pics, hence no dupattas imo !! I doubt those poor girls knew their pictures would be all over the internet.
Re: Parents of daughters: School Uniforms & Modesty
This.
This type of thinking is exactly whats corroding Pakistani social structure, and making it such a shallow, idle, inferior complex ridden society completely devoid of self respect. You have burger kids from all Holy "American" and "British" schools looking down at kids from government schools and their uniforms which happens to be damned shalwar kameez. Them kids in shalwar kameez for the burger crowd is a symbol of supression, low class, backwardness etc etc.
The amount of superficiality and 'materialistic morality' that exists within the Pakistani youth is simply digusting.
Don't take it just another thread in life1....this is a story of Pakistan.
Very well said and 110% accurate to the point. I went back to Pakistan after 14 years last year for my sister's wedding and the disparity that I saw between youth from high class college and schools like LUMS and Aitcheson compared to Government institution is amazing. Their thinking structure is different. Where to progress, every kid in government school wants to leave Pakistan to come to west, there, to progress, every LUMS and Aitcheson kid wants to blow off his parents money to create west in Pakistan. Somebody like me who has never lived in Pakistan, I see that country with most unbiased eye and all I see is partiality between rich and poor.... progression is associated with picking up western values, even clothing and anybody who likes to live traditionally is labeled backward minded, in simple words, not "cool" enough.
There is no middle class in that country, kids from expensive school are the only ones getting jobs in multinational firms (majority through contacts), government school graduates gets jobs in government offices. A rich is getting richer and poor is getting poorer. We blame Pakistan’s political deterioration, economic deterioration, law and order deterioration but nobody questions the main key aspect, the social deterioration, where the youth has forgotten the social values that Pakistan was built upon! If a guy who was born outside of Pakistan, has only visited total of 5 times in his life time can see that, why can't the common man open his eyes and see it as well!
Sorry I took it off topic but the OP words just sparked this argument in me as to where the Pakistan and its people heading.
