    Nope..They are not putting their safety on the line. No one threatened them on their lives.

    They have been doing this march...Did last year as well....It only gained hype this time as verbal fight breaks out b/w feminist Marvi Sarmed and a conservative drama writer KRQ (Khalil ur Rehman Qamar)

    Hilarious fight/shouting begins from 0:55 seconds

    Unlike Americans, Pakistanis never officially claimed how we ARE THE GREATEST COUNTRY on planet earth :)

    Woman has become PM of Pakistan...Americans yet to elect female head.

    Fun Fact: This forum is called "Canada Kicks Ass (CKA)"... Not "America Kicks Ass". Please leave your veiled anti-americanism at the door.

    It�s extraordinary to me that you think that given what has gone on in Pakistan over the last twenty years. BTW electing female members of ruling families as heads of government occurs across South Asia and is further evidence of the corrupt oligarchies that run these countries, not female emancipation.

    Wow so threatening to rape the woman from the last march is perfectly okay to you. Good to know how you think of woman.

    Benazir may be was part of elite but had life full of troubles....Continuous fighting with dictators, getting his brother and father killed/murdered and facing exile....she was hardly a princess despite being part of well off political family.

    I like the fact how you downplay this...she was the FIRST Muslim lady Prime Minister in the world.

    My mother knows what I think of women....And she is the only person I believe who should know about this...

    So, sorry.

    Now coming back to topic.....Why Americans haven't yet elected woman as their head?

    Why so much hate for hillary?

    You might want to read the thread it is NOT about America.

    You say this when the original article says the opposite. Thus you imply that it is okay with you for these woman to be threated with rape.

    Your deflection trying to put down America is so obvious you were told by another poster to stop. You now are trying to claim that this thread is about America. When in fact it's about Pakistan and the treatment of Woman wanting to assert their rights and the threats that have been made against them.

    Your previous statements seem to show an implied condoning of the treatment and threats being made against these woman.

    Really? That's the topic now, is it? Gotta love the message-board magic there. I thought the topic was the violent threats Pakistani women who oppose the Pakistani status-quo are getting.

    I think the term hero is used way to often. In this case YES they are hero's. I hope this years march is twice the size from last year just in defiance of the threats that have been made.

    Agreed. The women marching are very brave to do so. And while large parts of the country are still too backwards, it shows how much progress has been made. A march like this would have been unthinkable a decade ago.
