A college swimmer caught red-handed assaulting an unconscious girl behind a dumpster gets sentenced to just 3 months in jail because the judge "didn't want to ruin his Olympic potential." Once again, a man's hypothetical career is worth more than a woman's actual life.
It’s essential for a deeply entrenched system that the working-class women are not just spoken about, but are present at the march. Many of them, esp those from katchi abaadis, can’t afford to come on their own. We raise money to arrange transport so their voices can be heard.
Access to visibility is also a privilege that people, especially women, from working class communities are deprived of. It is part of the feminist struggle to ensure that everyone has the space to talk about the discrimination against them and raise their voices for their rights!
The mistreatment of rights activist Sheema Kermani, a 75 year old woman, by the Sindh Police points to the extent of moral depravity we have reached.

“Women’s voices must be heard!”
Thank you Shazia, since we are in absolute agreement here, we believe there is no reason for us to not have a NOC for an annual march.
Can we take your word for it that the Sindh government will let us march this May 10th?
#AuratMarchRighttoNOC
The real face of @PPP_Org and Sindh Govt. Yeh hai aapki "pro people" politics? Ilegally detaining and manhandling 75 yr old women just for attempting to hold a peaceful press conference? SHAME!
Please join us in demanding #AuratMarchRightToNOC for this Sunday 10 May!!!!
We’re raising money to transport women from working-class neighbourhoods to the March.
Aurat March takes no funding from corporations, government, political parties, or NGOs. happens every year with contributions from supporters and immense voluntary labour by feminists.
Join us for a Twitter/X Space this Labor Day to discuss the resistance and demands of Aurat March Karachi in the context of Pakistan's current sociopolitical landscape, as we gear up to take to Karachi's streets once again on 10th May!

The first disposable pads were inspired by WWI bandages - because nurses realized the material absorbed blood really well.
So yes…
sanitary pads exist because women looked at war supplies and said,
“this could help my period.”
Innovators. Truly.
Why is it only a woman's responsibility to take care of all her child's needs? Kya mardoun ka kaam sirf apna sperm dena aur free labor ke mazay uthana hai, woh bhi apni financial security intact rakhay huay while stripping his wife of the same so that she's dependent on him?
Our Israel first, America last pedo president used multiple Tomahawk precision guided missiles to blow up a children’s school in Iran.
Trump has used your tax dollars to murder 180 little girls, let that sink in.
Your govt arrested #AuratMarch Islamabad volunteers, their families, women lawyers, journalists, 14-year old girls, pregnant women & senior citizens. You wounded them and kept them deprived of food and water for 10+ hours (& counting). Is THIS how you pay tribute to women? Shame.
