This can work as the soft image of Pakistan.

why peace mission in cyprus? there is no war in cyprus i guess

Cyprus is divided between the Turkish north and Greek south. Whilst there hasnt been any violence for a while now, the tensions are still there and both sides remain divided by a UN force.

You're the one who thinks that people will click on it because you think she's pretty. Freaking hell, understand that. You think that way, most sane people don't.

I respect your comments and you make some sense. But here, you are wrong. The sad reality is that this article will generate more clicks because the woman officer in it is pretty. You need to accept this statistical truth.

Also do not make this borderline personal - I myself am not clicking it because she is pretty, I am simply pointing out that it will get more clicks because she is pretty - hence the objective of this particular brand of "feminism" is not being met.

You have not explicitly stated yet that I am clicking it because she is pretty but you seem to be implying it. I am trying to make a point or two about biology and human behaviour, nothing personal.

Like you, I wish to resolve discrimination against females, but if every internet pic of liberated Pakistani females is a super fit and pretty military officer, we're going the wrong way about it.

Lets throw a burqa on her, what do you say?

Only Pakistani biology: "She's showing her face! Others will only click because of that!"

Yes, her fault she is pretty and fit. She must be banned from any pictures. That's the spirit "Masterchief Mirza."

Nothing wrong with wanting to marry a housewife. It's best that we don't adopt the mentality of western men, especially with regards to wives etc, it's not a good mindset to adopt.

No it isn't but my point is women in the western world actually have rights to do whatever the hell they want whereas in Pakistan, that sadly isn't the case. I don't want us to be like western men but we need to be a society where we give women more rights so they can do what they please without being slammed by the male members of the family.

Ok I buy into it IF it is about empowerment and countering the narrative of "female oppression in Islamic countries". But neither the tweet nor the article specify this. So the question remains, is she an internet sensation because she is looks nice in uniform, or is it because she is excelling in her role? The former outcome doesn't help her or her country's progress. The second outcome does. Women should be treated equally to men, not reduced to click bait.

the status of women in Pakistan is poor. it is reflected in the socio-economic indicators of society
having a female Prime minister or a UN peacekeeper does not change it

Why do you obsess over my pen name/avatar?

Anyway, you are just saying the same crap over and over...that somehow I am offended that she is good looking and she should be proud of being click bait and such things advance women blah blah and the usual feminist crap etc etc.

Look, let me make it clear one last time. Even a small bit of context like, hey she has commanded a certain mission well or has won a certain award and I am satisfied. Putting a pic of a hot uniformed girl up just for the sake of it is a load of pseudofeminist crap.

What actually makes her BETTER than a counterpart male officer or her fellow female officers? If this question cannot be answered with something other than "she is fitter and cuter", then you are the pathetic keyboard warrior who is undoing any social advances that females have made.

May Allah taala give sense to our qaum.

Some obsess over a blue eyed chai walla, now obsessing a blonde female peacekeeper.

Literally 40% of our society has these genes of light hair color, light skin, and light eyes. You can find people like this is every province.

I don’t see the big deal.
