Re: Who's more mature?
abroad where? US? Saudi Arabia?
and in Pakistan where? major city, chuk #42?
what social group..?
aside from each individual being...err individual...unique. These factors play a role as well.
and then what is your definition of maturity.
Having said all that if I had to answer teh question in generalities, I would say that a 20 year old in US is more mature than an avg 20 year old in Pakistan. In general they have seen more, have had access to more information, have the opportunity to do more, I mean just look at how many 20 year old desi girls in US have worked, even if it is just a summer job during break, or how many have been involved in different organizations and compare that to avg girls in pakistan. That ios just one example.. It does not mean that having the indeoendence and opportunity automatically makes one more mature but there is a higher likelihood.
I saw a world of difference in desi guys who had moved here for undergrad and were putting themselves through college, or even if they were not. Compared to their friends back home they were def more mature. I have heard many times from my friends, and it was my own experience as well that the guys there just seemed to be stuck in some kid of rut and not really growing as people or growing slow.
perhaps it is the same with girls.
