Re: you wana earn yourself or wana dependent on your spouse for money?

^ So your conclusion comes from a GEO documentary!

Not only that I come from a village, I have been to numerous. It IS divided, life is not managable otherwise. Exceptions aside, men have their own areas of responsibility and they have to struggle as much as their women have to. Those women are very tough, still not superwomen.

Those gossiping at the general stores are spoiled kids whose parents and siblings are working, or old fellows whose kids are working. Somebody has to run the machinary.

It's comes from great observation skills.. as well as belonging from one. The GEO documentary went from village to village all over Pakistan..

Good for you :k:

Thank yew! If it was divided I wud've said so.. there are households where both share responsibility.. but in majority of homes it's women. Women from rural area's are neither "jahil" nor "paindoo" in any way..

Re: you wana earn yourself or wana dependent on your spouse for money?

^ Jahil is a bad and objectionable word, paindoo is not. I am a paindoo and not ashamed to admit that, actually proud that I know my roots.

It is divided, its just that you have no clue. Actually, having spent most of my time in my pind, I find your expert opinion rather amusing. But then, since it is so important for you to be right, I will let you have it your way.

It's not important to me to be right, what u've seen is u're opinion..what i've seen is mine.. why so touchy? Pind isn't the only gaon in Pakistan.. Bahawalnagar, Dera Nawab, Rasheedabad..

I never used either words.. I was addressing the person that started this thread :)

U're adamant about it being divided.. i'll let u have it.

Re: you wana earn yourself or wana dependent on your spouse for money?

"Pind" is the punjabi word for a village/gaoun. In my previous job, I have seen some 70% of rural Pakistan and had a quite close interaction with our rural populace.

Anyway, you carry on.

Me too..

I was correcting suhaina's perception of women in the rural area being "jahil" and "paindoo".. which they're not.
