RE: Reintroducing Pakistan to the World
I upvoted it because of the amazing lansdcape... but I have a serious question: are there no women in Pakistan?

well thank u so much for the up-vote :) I really appreciate it. what makes u say that: there are no women in Pakistan?
I didn't see any woman in that video. It is made very professional and makes me appreciating that country, but it felt a bit like there's something missing. And then I realized - no women.
it's not like that, this video only highlights the beautiful landscapes of Pakistan and Pakistan isn't just landscapes. Ur assumption is somewhat correct, people who live in the mountains do not like their women exposed to other men. It's not that they are not given rights. Of course the tribal areas in Pakistan are male-dominant but if u visit big cities u won't find it like that. The tribal areas were ruled by the Taliban in the past and there still are some left, who do not encourage women empowerment. Meanwhile, if u visit the other places, ur perception will completely change.
Thank you very much for this honest and interesting clarification! :)
u r welcome. now I feel like I made u think of me as a terrorist but I swear I'm not lol
😆 No, I don't think that. I am convinced that people like you and me just have to talk more often together instead of building walls out of misunderstandings and old belief systems.
Exactly, I try my level best to show to the people around the globe what my country really looks like :) we have arranged trips in the past where students from different countries would come over to Pakistan and see for themselves the beauty and charm of this place. Their perception had altered completely
All women here lol I should have shown u this earlier
