RE: It is Women's Day

You know what, we say women's education is important, cool, but men's education should also be the utmost priority.

You are right. Like I said boys need to be taught from early age at home. Our kids learn what they see at home, not what they are taught in books. If my husband treats me well, it's more likley that my boys will respect their wives too in future.

In this post, I highlighted more on women's basic right to get any level of education they desire. They shouldn't be shunned away to stay at home after matriculation just because - روٹیاں ہی پکانی ہیں
Because what if her "rich" husband turns out to be cruel, gets bed-ridden or dies... what she'll do then? The same parents won't take her back. She won't have any skills to monetize. Our society doesn't treat divorcees and widows any better.

It's better to always have a plan B and C, no matter how good or rich your husband is.

Have you seen that Halwa incident in Lahore market,

Yes... we are the nation who would also kiss the word بیت الخلا because it's Arabic. I'm not just saying it.. it's a true story. 😅

we have inherited it from India,

Not the current India. These ridiculous cultural traditions date back to the Mughal Era. The whole South Asia suffers now.

keep your father's name intact, instead. No headaches:)

I didn't find any reference where it is prohibited to take after husband's name either. So, I think it's upto an individual's choice however they wish because it's thought to make things easier in legal documents and stuff. Although, I chose to keep my father's name and I've never had any kind of difficulties so far.

As a nation we make short term plans for a few years or a decade, like our politicians. Our vision is restricted, in this modern age every woman must have any skill she finds compelling to become self sufficient atleast:)

In a lot of cases, men respect their wives who earn and not depend entirely on them. Otherwise they think they have a right to treat her bad because he provides her.

That's the point and i actually appreciate you for that👏

Recently, i watched a video of Bangladesh where men were so habitual to urinate on the walls, after clearly reading it prohibited in their language.

So the govt played a trick and wrote it in Arabic, not only did they stop doing it, but also started kissing the walls😂
