Either you are extremely tired or intoxicated to construe my statement that way. Please re-read what the term" national unity" means.
The dress is part of the individualistic culture, so regardless of its cultural aspect.. I have no interest in the Shalwar Kameez bar eid as it is a lousy dress to do anything other than manual labor in. It has nothing to do with my definition as a Pakistani or how I assess the country. That is true for most in Pakistan and has little to do with where and why the dress originated.

If anything, you are peddling the ideals of associating with a conformed identity which reflect a banana republic struggling to keep everyone in line by a single outward appearance or single accent.
You are Pakistani regardless of what language you speak or color of your skin or the length of your dress's entails.


My facts are spot on, you are only playing the usual defensive mentality of trying to associate a dress with being Pakistani or with the IVC or with Hazrat Adam rather than recognizing Pakistan as a collective of diversity with a shared purpose as a nation of the various people living in it to live their lives according to their beliefs with freedom.

The Shalwar Kameez has nothing to do with any particular country as such.
I disagree with you, Shalwar Kameez is a Pakistani outfit.

Pakistan and Afghanistan gets to claim the greatness of the outfit of Shalwar Kameez, while India get the dhoti and the sari.

It is critical that Pakistan has tangible markers that underpin it's identity. Or else it becomes just a locomotive carriage of diversity sharing a common space until they all reach their destinations. Take the Italians. The pizza, Ancient Rome, Colosseum etc are clear manifestation of their identity. Try questioning a Italians heritage and see the reaction.

Exactly my point.

Pakistan has a great heritage it can feel proud of.

Ranging from clothing to architecture to literature, to history of IVC civilization.

Pakistan is a blessed country. Al-humdulillah!

One of the common refrains I hear Indians claim in their attempt to belittle Pakistan is that we are just a shadow of reflected hate of india. Meaning we don't have any existance other than being a "opposite" of India. That is why they take everything under our feet. They consider Pakistan a artificial state lacking any identity other than hatred of India, no culture, no history but just a army that hates India. In other words hatred of India is our ideology and the day the hatred ruuns out Pakistan will melt back into India like ice thaws and drips back into water.

What our senior mod @Oscar said amounts to validating the Indian argumant.

I am secular but I can certainly agree with you there 100%.

I am tired but lets leave that aside. So what is the "shared purpose of this diversity"?
Live as free Muslims- I have no interest in being lynched for eating beef.

Only in your interpretation.

Thus reducing Pakistan to a "shadow of India" or merely a "refuge". That means by definition if India gave up mis-treatment of Muslims and accorded them full rights that would be time to disband Pakistan and merge it back with India. Great ...

Pakistan never had anything to do with India in the first place.

This can be proved. We always had a different culture.

True words spoken

but for second part 99% Hindus oppose merging of Islamic Republic into India. I think any person who deserve to be worshiped/deity by Hindus it is none other than Mohammad ali Jinna. :cheers:

Nice try troll.

Hatred of Pakistan is used to unite the Hindus of India.

U forgot

Jews in Israel ,Buddhists in Burma and now Christians in West hates only one ideology.:cheesy:

Anyway on OP i hates salwar kameez. If i become a PM i will ban this disgusting dress it look like Nighty/Thawb-arab dress.... ugly

I would say Pakistani, since the people of Sindh Wa Hind didn't have the expertise in sewing which later came into the region through the advent of Islam.
Prior to that the people used to wrap sheets around their body as is still evident from sari and dhoti in more backward areas.

I am glad you agree Shalwar Kameez is foreign to India and native to Pakistan.

This is something I always believed in.
