There are people in Pakistan who would say that they still enjoy many of the same liberties as anywhere else…
Ofcourse it depends on where in Pakistan you go… Some parts are more liberal then others obviously.
My wife is from a middle class family in Islamabad, and she enjoyed many liberties that perhaps even Muslim girls in India wouldnt. But even for her there is a limit, and the same for most Pakistanis. Pakistani have their own values, and liiberites fall within the confines of those values.
Everything is relative… Like someone said, somthings are acceptable in India society because they ARE Indians, while those same things would not be acceptable in Pakistan… We are not Indians and they are not Pakistanis.
The authors drawing an unfair comaprison by comparing apples and oranges.
Its a matter of preferance, if you like oranges, go eat oranges, if you like apples eat apples.
But in the end, Indians arent much more accpeting or tolerant then anyone else.
They have their issues which is plain for the world to see, except ofcourse for the author who is infatuated with the thought of being able to walk around in bell bottoms… More power to her.

i do see your point. i mean her article about how oppressive the pakistani government is did make it to pakistans major newspaper so one would wonder if the article being published at all speaks for itself :halo:
and also i do think women do walk around in sleeveless in the major cities of pakistan (they get stared at but then again the men also stare at the ones in half-sleeves) the media has become relatively more liberal than what it was a few years ago. basically for any girl that wants to wear a sleeveless outfit…she can…no one will persecute her for it. the rest of the girls have bigger issues to worry about than whether they should wear sleeveless or not.
