If at all, sufi poetry was just for romanticism, why they faced so much opposition. After all, poets like Mir Taqi Mir (who are also famous for romantic poetry) lived the same period as of Bulleh Shah.

romanticism + piri muridi

Actually all the poets are opposed by religious circle. you know they used word ‘waiz’ and criticized them in every other ghazal or nazam. Bulleh shah went to extreme by condemning religious circles and favoring secularism, but that does not negate the point of believe in female inferiority.
