all because a man couldn’t take a no

[Lyls🌙 @Laamalif_]

Men will never truly know what it feels like to be a woman living in Pakistan. What if you say no to sex one day and your husband kills you? What if you hurt a man’s ego and he throws acid on you? And what if you do absolutely nothing at all and still get raped or killed?

[Eri🌻 @Erishuuu]

Patriarchy is so deeply rooted that a woman sacrificing her body to give birth is treated as normal,
While a man washing a few dishes is treated like a hero.

[Ous'B 💚 @BongsMahlangu_]

I never feared death until I became a mother. Now I feared leaving my child in a world that won't love him the way I do.

Your entire nervous system relaxes when your finances are in order.

[A. @ArchieeAgarwal]

honestly, if it was not for family pressure, I'm so sure, maximum women from this generation would have crossed marriage off their list for good

[Sahar @ustaanijee]

Pakistanis have no manners when it comes to being guests. They will either show up late or show up without calling. And will give unsolicited opinions on anything and everything in the dawat. Like bro have some respect.

[Hunadi M @HunadiFlorah]

One of the perks of being a woman is that no one can ever surprise you with a kid years later and say you’re the mother

[🦋 @mishalgorithm]

Because education for women in particular isn’t seen as a step to independence, it’s seen as a prerequisite to include in your biodata

[Sara 🍉 @BauhatSara]

Husband and I were taking Eid photos and SIL said ‘Pictures daikh k lagay ga dono itne khush hein ikathay’ 😂😂😭😭

Free Pakistani women from the shackles of living under the same roof as their mother in law.

[Damn. @Theonenameddamn]

Men see their sacrificial mothers as "standards" & women see their sacrificial mothers as "trauma". And that's where the difference lies.

[Yves ౨ৎ @yvessirae]

a father's 'sacrifice' is described as providing money and being decent. a mother's 'sacrifice' is her body, her career, her identity, her free time, her health and her last name. the expectations were never equal.

[jezz @JezziiB]

As a girl, not being financially independent is scarier than not getting married.

Unpopular opinion: After becoming a mom you don’t “get your old self back.” You grow into someone better. Someone softer. Someone stronger.

[𝗠𝘂𝗵𝗲𝗲 ♛ @muheediva01]

and for the lady, perhaps a deep cleaned house, cancelled plans, a new series to watch, and zero human interaction?

[Mbasela @Mbasela__]

What doesn’t kill you makes you wake up at 03:42am to stare at the ceiling

[🐬 @triplexdshott]

until it happens to you, you will think you are very careful, very responsible, very smart, very religious, very mature, very private, very etc.
