Quick scroll through comments on the Aurat March:

1. Men blaming us for not representing other women
2. Men calling us out for not being able to tolerate domestic violence
3. Men incapable of learning from us about women.
4. Telling us what and how to speak about our own issues After an overview of the hostility and hate speech on Aurat March, I am convinced each year there are more rallying men under the disturbingly aggressive Twitter threads dedicated to passing conclusive social legislation about the vulgarity slogans & women are getting out of hand

What are you doing with your Monday if you haven't already started the Karakoram album listening party at your work desk. What is the band Karakoram?

Karakoram is a Pakistani Alternative/Rock band with a wide and unique soundscape from hard hitting rock to soulful spacey arrangements. (@Patreon)

Tourism in Pakistan: Historical sites have been whitewashed or destroyed. The Galiyaat are overcrowded, badly designed hotels that are overpriced. That's the truth, it's not the booze, not the lack of roads. We litre & are only good for breaking the natural ecology of the land. Every year it gets worse, every year I ask why doesn't the government privatise the garbage picking and actually give these thekas to the local people of the area. Every year I shudder at the rapid urbanisation of my favourite valleys. You have no idea what you are asking for.

When you log in to write about what incredible trailblazer & vibrant performer @itsmeeshashafi has been this week!! Find that she is already trending! BUT NO its the same dead carcass dragging her down

You are an absolute rockstar! Made from lightning and thunder! #MeeshaShafi The Artist: - Thread -

The duality, hypocrisy, unwilling to understand each other highlights our limited ability to value music and perhaps women. A glaring societal split is toxic and unbearable.

A Thread: The constant undermining of female intelligence in this country begins at home. Assume your female counterparts don't know because it makes you feel superior. Shame on you. The simplistic view of male exposure grants them "know better" than everyone else needs to end. Instead of providing support - men pity themselves. They'll break us down to feel powerful in an argument. When men claim they know how I feel living in this country, I want to literally spit water in their faces because that's how we females live every second of every day.
