Samira writes in from Rawalpindi, stating that she wants a more adequate projection of the lifestyle of modern Pakistani girls. There is a prevailing stereotype among many observers around the world that Pakistani girls are repressed, subject to abuse and generally lead miserable lives. Nothing could be further from the truth, however,
An increasing proportion of Pakistani women lead ambitious, career oriented lives. Pakistani girls generally tend to perform better academically than their male counterparts. Many work in multinational companies around Pakistan.
Pakistani girls are also in control of their sexual destiny. Many have boyfriends, and are sexually active. In this regard, many prefer a Western-oriented lifestyle. Today, the girls of Pakistan, especially in Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi lead very independent lives.
