I do not wish to interact with you on any board. And best bet for you is to ignore all my posts. Do not read them. Do not waste your precious time in reading my useless posts.

Better try to utilize your precious internet time in interacting with your likeminded Indians and some Pakistanis. Try to have fun............

Regards

PS:-thanks for putting me on ignore.

Dear writer
[[Nevertheless, the attention should also be drawn to the pseudo Feminism in the garb of women rights which has taken its roots some time ago in the West and has thrown a very simple and urgent issue of women empowerment into a spiral of confusion and conflict. Women rights have become another tragedy of commons in social anthropology of urban activism.]]
This so very true.....

As I told you earlier in my earlier post..........be careful there are some highly intellectual feminists here on chowk......LOL....

Yes, they are feminists..........they stand still for the rights of all women of Pakistan....
They go to Pakistan to help rural poor Pakistani women............LOL
Yes, they have started way too many projects for these poor women...........LOL

Yes, they are doing everything possible for those deserving Pakistani women........but, here on chowk by typing words and dishing them on your face..............and trying their best to convince you, how good they are and how much feminist champion they could be....LOL......but,only here on chowk..........

B/c chowk is the best place to raise your voice against oppression of Pakistani women....

I hope you understand......

Good luck with chowk feminists...........LOL

Virginia Tech sociopath reminded me of some hateful Indians here on chowk who are busy 24/7 for their hateful propaganda...................

And mind it Taslima is also a sociopath who has a disturbed thought process like Virginia Tech Sociopath who killed 32 innocent kids for no reason................sad fact

Dear Zeena,

No idea why so many of these men or women are frustrated and giving such negative reactions. ARe they all New york times journalists asked by Chowk to edit articles?

I said pseudo feminism in the garb of feminism or they think feminism is the most pure activist and academic initiative ever started and why because it is started by `Women``so I am all the more SINFUL who questioned it.

Every thing in this world can be questioned and ridiculed but not FEMINISM. Well that is the problem. Have not we notice same inflexibility in the point of Fundmentalists who are not ready to listen to anything other than their point of view.

In the start of my article I say femisism and women empowerment is all the more important but I question pseudo feminism in the garb of feminism and women rights.

. Now the frustrations show that most associated themselves with pseudo femisism and thus all frustrated . Well not only I write articles, in my personal life also I am very vocal about it and quite right some times it is a cause of my social exclusion and gets frustrating but I am not gonna give it up.

Regarding Pakistani women they are indeed so repressed that anything they say and do is justified. Though not applicable for Pakistani women who have spent significant time in the West as then they should be smart enough to realise what is a fad and what is not. So I guess this article may look a bit of out of place me sitting here in the West interacting and going about doing things in an environment which is entirely different then Pakistani environment where even if a woman comes out on a street in jeans there is some possibility of harassment.

[[Zeena, how do you blame the Virginia Tech killings on feminism???]]

nb sahiba
First of all you asked me a totally twisted question..........that doesn`t fit right here...
Please, re read my posts below and come up to something more valid.

If, you don`t mind, may I correct your question.......
You could have asked......
[[Zeena, why do you think Virginia Tech Sociopath had just the same mind set as pseudo feminists have???]]

My dear
Sociopaths are full of hate for others, they always believe their rights have had been denied based on their gender,cast , religion or socioeconomic status. That`s exactly what happened with virginia Tech sociopath and that`s exactly what pseudo feminists ha ve had been spreading hateful speeches...........they never really helped poor oppressed women , especially from third world countries....their only mean motive is to create a riff between social setup and disruption , creating more chaos which can lead to killings.....just think about it.....................

Re#42 mamoon sahib
Thanks for your intelligent response.

[[No idea why so many of these men or women are frustrated and giving such negative reactions. ARe they all New york times journalists asked by Chowk to edit articles?]]

Exactly....LOL
Don`t worry, they will always coem up with their pseudo propagandas and will try to harrass you , if, you will not agree with them. This is the way they are. They will always be negative , if, your ideology won`t suit their minds. They are self righteous. And don`t forget, they are pseudo feminists means full of hatred and negativity, they act like champions for women rights...................

But, remember as I stated earlier, they will never ever go out of their ways to help really poor and oppressed women who are really in need.................and yes all of them have a delusion that they are some sort of NY times journalists hired by chowk staff to edit articles.....LOL...well said!!!

[[I said pseudo feminism in the garb of feminism or they think feminism is the most pure activist and academic initiative ever started and why because it is started by `Women``so I am all the more SINFUL who questioned it.

Yes, they have this delusion and illusion that feminism is some sort of pure activity which , if, questioned will be SINFUL...........quite right.

Yes, they think they are LIBERALS and OPEN MINDED..........as a matter of fact they are a walking talking examples of FUNDAMENTALISTS , exactly the same mind sets.........they are intolerant , prejudiced, inforgiving and inflexable and full of hate, lies and double standards.................just like pseudo Mullahs. I call them fascists and fanatics.
Yes, they never listened to anyone, but, their own pseudo agendas...............they are exactly like dictators ready to choke your throat, if, you disagree with them..........

[[In the start of my article I say femisism and women empowerment is all the more important but I question pseudo feminism in the garb of feminism and women rights.

. Now the frustrations show that most associated themselves with pseudo femisism and thus all frustrated . Well not only I write articles, in my personal life also I am very vocal about it and quite right some times it is a cause of my social exclusion and gets frustrating but I am not gonna give it up. ]]

I understand your views right from the start and that was the main reason I admired your intellectual views and this article...........very valid and so true....You rock.

Indeed you showed your uniqueness and intelligence................Bravo.

I do not believe in this word feminism, I believe in standing for the rights of all the humans regardless of gender/cast/religion/nationality without spreading hate ful pseudo agendas......Please, never stop raising your true and intellectual voice just b/c they dislike your views............remember, never get frustrated, if, you`ll be frustrated then there won`t be any difference between you and them.......they are frustrated and let them be....

Never giveup your ideology.........your ideology is much more brighter than most of interactors....

Let me confess here something here infront of you......there was a certain time period in my life time, when I got carried away by the slogans of pseudo feminists and started acting exactly like them, but, I guess that was just the exploration time......later when I realized that their ideology is screwed up and twisted....I came in to my senses and now, I laugh @ myself for that......
Please, write more articles like this .....I will wait for them to be published. thanks

[[Regarding Pakistani women they are indeed so repressed that anything they say and do is justified.

Yes, Pakistani women are suppressed and oppressed. I admit, but, you know why? b/c of lack of education,basic health needs and lack of opportunities.........
I have had been to so many remote villages in Pakistan( both Punjab and NWFP) and Azad Kashmir...........for different projects. But, it is not only Pakistani women, it is about 80% of Pakistanis ( living in rural areas) regardless of gender who are suffering b/c of lack of their basic life needs................

Let me give you my example..........I always wear jeans in Pakistan( even in rural areas)...I never ever felt any kind of harassment).......all they do is respect me and love me.....

Most of the times, rural poor men take me to their families and introduce me to their wives and advice them to listen to me and do exactly what I tell them.....they do not get offended....Men I have experienced are more supportive and like to change their women folks..................

At the end.....do not change your ideology , if, you will do, you`ll lose yourself in the spin.....

regards

Besides,

It`s just plain wrong belief. I wish I could give these people the benefit of the doubt, but their arguments are counterfactual, unsubstantiated, paranoiac, hateful, and boring. They either reject the facts of normal society or, when they can no longer sustain their fantastic denials.

They behave as fascists as we know them now, saying, ``We want this exactly the way we wish to and that`s the right way only and natural way.``I hate the pseudo feminists who do not believe in existence of genetic differences among men and women and they are always threatened by the very facts of genetics................

Their slogans are, MY WAY or NO WAY..........

Thanks for the encouragement and you are quite right the issues of women are more regarding their economic empowerment. If women carry themselves with grace and confidence, I think they will only get respect from any one who is reasonable despite being educated or not.

Zeena Begum, channeling Phyllis Schafly, Anita Bryant and Johnny Walker at the same time can`t be good for your mental health. :)
