Pakistani Girls are not Pussy Cats

By Amna Gilani • Oct 12th, 2008 • Category: Misc, Worth A Second Look • 55 Comments •

Hi Cutie, Hi Sweetie, Hi Paro, Hi Mano, Hi Pussy, Hi Jani, Hi Rani, Hi Jan and so on. Such are the calls girls get when they get outside for shopping or for education or for work. This is exactly the sort of experience that makes me wonder about the social values and the Islamic teachings and all that stuff.

It’s not strange for me and it’s a routine that every now and then when I pass through a gentleman standing at the corner of the street or sitting aimlessly at any elevation on the road and get some remarks about my physical appearance, praises and invitations. More often than not these remarks range from praising the eyes to shameless invitation for some kissing and having sex. One or two time, when gents really get shameless, I have stopped and asked “What did you say?”, but in return just got lewd grins and defiance, and I have learned the hard way that the best option is to ignore and walk away as fast as possible.

No burqa, no Chaddar, no Dupatta and other thing stop these gents from making these remarks. It’s silly to say that if a girls wraps herself in Burqa then nobody teases her. It’s totally false and not really applicable. The people who does such things aren’t bothered by such things. They go for anything even scantly resembling a female.

  2. Oh sorry Amna Khan

  3. Dear Amna,

    can you tell please where are you living. After all my female colleagues, family ladies are also living in same Pakistan and I never found such kind of views from there side that on every corner people calls us like this. Even one of my colleague is very open to say what ever happens to her but even then she never complaint as you are saying.

    She is MashAllah quite beautiful and also visits The mall, Y-Block DHA, Main Boulevard and Gulberg etc etc. here my point is not to mention her beauty but ensuring that if she can not be disturbed as you writes then how others can be disturbed so much.

    Is this some sort of exgaration in your posts against men. Can you write some day on few girls who take away street guy for satisfying their sexual desires and then throws near any garbadge in early morning. Thanks.

    I do respect you but this post is more than enough to tolerate. Please never exgerate things upto thats extent where it irritates others.

    Hopinh you understood my point.

  4. Mr. Saleem, I haven’t exaggerated anything. I never said every time, every where, did I? I said every now and then. What we girls tolerate in public is the real tolerance.

    best regards

    Amna

  5. Please your post agin and comment back,

    Whom you calls GENTLEMAN… which you are mentioning in your posts. If I critically read your each and every post…. some time you are harassed in Mountain vallies, some time on Main boulevard, some time in Liberty, some time in streets, some time on phones, some time by abnoxious calls on Moblies and some time by SMS.

    After reading your post, I seriously discussed the same with same my last collegue on chat (which I mentioned above). She seriously rejected all your points and told that it is nothing like that. I will come with more comments and view of a lady on your post but let others to comment first.

  6. Such kind of language is quite common even in first world countries where girls use seductive acts of dress up in public areas or shopping malls as there girls enjoy such remarks so this things are not mentioned seriously.In my personal opinion and experience the Pakistani society even in big cities is very backward and conservative.We dont accept changes in dresses and in our way of living easily and passing commenst to unusual acts is part of our culture. In Lahore college its almost 1/2 km of distance from main gate to Admin office and when ever a handsome or dandy boy dares to cross this way he also face or sometime more worst comments in his 1/2 km walk way.So again I advise Pakistani girls from my working experience as an engineer I mostly worked on field areas to take care of their dress codes while moving in public areas as such precautionary step can reduce many unavoidable gestures from low profile public.This precaution is only valid of Muslim countries like Pakistan and Saudia other wise in many other muslim countries I saw women wearing in modest way of using cab alone in late night hours without any apprehension.

  7. What Amna is writing cannot be understood by men, but would be empathize by most of the women.

    Kudos to Amna.

  8. Hahahahahahahah! Nicely commented skirt of comments, rightly removed, at right place. I don’t understand why people don’t call her “CHICK” or “Babe” only .

    please go through the comments of nazia for future relief if at all ,you dont enjoy the the gesture .

  9. Dr Ayesha:

    You can’t claim that what ever she is writing is not understood by men. All men are not the same. I am not negating her raised issues but again some time few issues are exgerated by tagging all men as one or all ladies as innocent. Every human being is different from other.

    I am sorry if my comments hurt any lady but facts and figures should not be written that reflect the image of whole society as Good or Bad. We have all kind of people around us. It is my experience that we can’t change views/attitudes of others after they reach certain age but we can adjust ourself according to the given situation.

    If lady knows that she will be harassed by wearing Jeans at any location so she should avoid but as she knows that people don’t bother if she will wear in Western countries then she should wear it comfortably. I am not against any dress but we should adopt our self according to situation.

    There is a restaurant near Badshahi Masjid Lahore…that area is not good for ladies to visit but still high class families visits there to enjoy food of that restaurant. If i am not it is KUM KUM and run by couple of youngsters (girls n guys) but taste of food is attracting people. But still no lady is harassed while visiting there because wise ladies wears dress according to the situation and area.

    So my point is that all men are not wrong and this perception should be negated to increase confidence in gentlemen ( not those gentlemen which Amna is using to write post).

  10. Hi Amna,
    Why not join lal masjid and be happy there? Just joking. We are humans.Our flesh is weak.You will find satans and godly behaviour in all humans.But appreciating a pretty girl is not sin.Adolescence is a dangerous age and aprreciating a grils beauty is normal among youth.

  11. Dear Mr. pathan ka Baccha
    Question - I know that people think I’m sexy and I am looked at as that. It is cool with me. It’s wonderful to have sexy appeal. If you embrace it, it can be a very beautiful thing, where ever I go the the Lafangas standing roaside call me Hi Cutie, Hi Sweetie, Hi Paro, Hi Mano, Hi Pussy, Hi Jani, Hi Rani, Hi Jan, even a decent guy Dr. razahaider called me “Chick” and “Babe” once. I love it but pretend to hate when telling others, so they accept me as decent girl
    Amna Alike
    Answer - Dear Anyone who thinks they’re sexy needs their head checked. calling some one Hi Cutie, Hi Sweetie, Hi Paro, Hi Mano, Hi Pussy, Hi Jani, Hi Rani, Hi Jan is an insult to their appearane, body language and attitude. Avoid company of decent girls to save them from bad influence, or stop hoping to meet a decent guy, you are not suited approved or recommended, unless prove yourself respectable and accepted as a lady in any crowd, situation and learn to handle it with grace and dignity.

    With true love and respect
    Pathan ka Baccha

  12. Saleem Khan
    Amna Alike may be shy to reply, you can reply me as a man.
    It will be much appriciated.

  13. Nazia
    Mulla ki janay main koun ?
    In first world you can freely lie down nude on any beach, and most man will not intentionally look at you, or wear what ever you want on streets or mall you won’t get much attention, or verbal abuse.
    It’s not acceptable within the civilzed society, places, or restuarants. ( with some exception by our standards)
    I let you decide may be our crowd on street & markets are more civilized.
    or may be not, or some kind of “jub bhi koi larki deekhoun mera dil deewana bolay” it’s OK

    @ another Dr. ayesha
    Man never understand woman damn right. you must be raised educated, and protected by women all your life. Sure they don’t share girly secrets, does’t mean they never understand.
    I see all well dressed, modern educated women on TV, I feel proud and impressed, not getting enough education about us I guess.

  14. Hi Amna,

    I have read quite a few of your posts. Strangely almost in all of your posts, you are sexually harrassed either at work, or out shopping or even walking. We have quite a few females at our workplace yet I have never heard of any of the things that you claim pakistani men do….no one has ever had her undergarments pulled down or called “Hi Cutie, Hi Sweetie, Hi Paro, Hi Mano” and especially not “Hi Pussy!”

    I guess you seem to attract the wrong kind of men… maybe you should try and analyze yourself to see WHY?

    Try to look at the way you dress, walk or talk! No offense intended….And please there is more than sexual frustration of men to write about : )

    Take care,

    Rana

  16. Dear Amna,

    I sincerely cannot understand that why all such things happen to you. people pinch you, call you pussy, baby blah blah. Why such things dont happen to us……. We also go out alone, work in offices, use public conveyance but nothing such happens to us so often…….. Can’t you write anythings else such issues.

    Some men are there who do not respect women but most of the men does. Because most of them are from good families and have their mothers, sisters and daughters at home. I have even seen men who do not even look in my eyes while talking to me just to give me respect. If you give respect you will get respect.

    I have seen some girls at workplace who are so overconcious, they think all men are mad about them and are very eager to talk to them. They dont even give any answer to their male co-workers respectfully b/c they suspect that they just want a chance to talk to them. You may be one of them. Or you may be thinking of such things so much that when you go out you feel that people are touching you, pinching you and calling you names….. you are sick….

    ACTUALLY YOU MAKE UP THESE STORIES…

    All men are not same rather I think that men whom you are talking about are only few among thousands who do respect women…

  17. Sammo, you are so mean!!!

    You know, there are poeple who just wish for things that amna described could happened to them. You know why? cuz they are needy, they want attention, or maybe there werent loved when they were kid or maybe they were abused……..Amna shows all the classical signs of that. She just wants attention. she just wants to get hurt so people will pay attention to her. she just needs love……dotn you Amna ‘)

  18. A GREAT SOCIAL WORKER I Salute You Amna

    I ridiculed Amna sometimes just to see how strong she defends her reports.What she reports is well researched dark side public secrets. she has a mission and will to keep us all well informed, aware and take counter actions.
    also I was in a impression a Male is using feminine name, because
    to report on such issues is daring and dangerous, for a woman ” Sorry Amina, truly so ” Especially as a lady reporter, the kind of comments she get and almost no appriciation. What she is doing is a world class reporting and social work and a social reformer
    I salute her determination.

    I know how verbal, physical abuse against women can hurt emotionally, physically and mentally, for rest of their life. It’s the most horrible crime we take it so lightly jockingly and just dis iz whaate they do attitude.

  19. It seems funny that first girls wear revealing cloths displaying their charms and invite scavangers to look at them, and when they do look at them the girls start complaining,

    why would any girl want to look beautiful when she doesnt want to be looked at, she may as well put on a burqa if her beauty is not ment for looked at by strangers. The girls some how feed their ego by making men notice them.

    a joke :

    girl one; when i came to the college there was a group of boys sitting and
    then a terrible thing happened! i was so humiliated !

    girl two: did someone tease you or call you mano, jano or pussy ? those boys ought to
    taught a lesson ! but first tell me what happened?

    girl one :its not that ! no one noticed my new dress!

    so its not their birth right to look at girls but boys cant be blamed if they do specially if girls want them to.
    because nowadays

    girls wear cloths like fences in zoo
    which protects the property without obstructing the view

    so this teasing can stop as soon as girls want it to.

    Ps. Saleem is right in comment 3 i uasually go to these places in lahore i havent seen any such incident. And Amna is uasually cry about the same issue again and again, salim i think she is a male basher.

    Ps. thanks to sadia for her number

  20. I would contribute one thing

    Girl one to other (when a guy doesn’t look at her) Dekh sala kutta dekh hi nahin raha meri taraf

    Girl one to other (when a guy does look at her) Dekh sala kaisay kuttay ki tarah dekh raha meri taraf

    (No off)

    But I must say all men are not bad as all women are not good

  21. Dear Amna

    I have read many of your posts and they are all about sexual harrasment.For all others who think that whatever Amna is saying is fake and she just need attention then you must open your eyes once and then observe your surroundings and only then you will realize what actually is happening in our society. I myself is a working lady and i always make sure that whenever im outside my home iam modestly dressed ( i do wear Abaya) but still i can relate to all the incidents that amna has ever discussed in her posts. I agree that all men are not alike and mostly educated and well mannered guys never do any such thing. I have wonderful male colleagues and friends and they all treat me with respect and dignity. Sometimes its the mistake of the girl if she got sexually harrassed but not always. In our society people still look at women as mere sex objects and treat them like one. I have no qualms against people from small towns or villages but most of such incidents i experienced involve people with low education or from remote areas.

  22. Ms Janeeta covered this issue with right words. I tell you, if a male himself is decent then ladies feel more comfortable to have good relations with him instead of with ladies. Many regards.

  23. Hi Dr. Smiley

    I confess after reading your post I am feeling week inside, something inside me keep urging me, forcing me and a strange funny itchy feeling to call some one:
    Hi Cutie, Hi Sweetie, Hi Paro, Hi Mano, Hi Jani, Hi Rani, Hi Jano

    What should I do Dr. Smiley?
    Pl. help the urge is irresistable, getting out of control

  24. Saleem Khan: Whatever the MALE is, Islam prohibted this kind of things
    Janeeta: I dont know from where you are, but keep in mind, 90% of Our MALE population is “JAAHIL”
    So dont expect that living in a well will save you from all male beasts.

    I am a male too but its our bad luck and lack of knonwledge about our most beloved relegion and our so called social teachings which has kept us far away from our actual deeds.

    please follow the right path and leave all these arguments which are just FALSE

  25. Amna keep up the good work. It is true many incidents in society ours bad. I once went to market and three males stared inside my shirt blouse. How dare them. Two time out of those three timings i wasn’t wearing bras. One guy even tries slapping my breast from inside shirt! and this happens INSIDE THE MARKETS FULL OF PEOPLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOBODY EXPOSE THESE BEAST! thanks you amna your doing GREAT SERVICE

    :)

  26. Assalam Alaykum and Hi Everybody !

    Ok I read by chance about your article Amna, what you wrote some of them are correct but the other part of your quote is incorrect. See only ISLAM is the solution for the problem of the world. You said Burqa don’t stop guys by doing this no Incorrect, I will say make it a practice and use it for months and see how things make it different. If your physical body is looking some how attractive opposite sex to call you whistle you or say any damn wording what if you are completely hide and covered and in Parda, if you will practice it you will see if not sudden but steadily you can see things will be different for you and guys will avoid calling you whistle or anything worse. Its like you are making your verse against ISLAM please to avoid it. Don’t say this is not a part of ISLAM or don’t say these things do nothing. Its like you are going to challenge what you should not, and on other words we know what ISLAM says is a line on STONE a Universal fact which do not change or will never change, it will remain the same until the day of judgment and will remain true always.
    The More we will go away from ISLAM and will quote our own things, the more we will sink and will have to face problems.
    May ALLAH Bless Us All. AAMEEN SOMMA AAMEEN

  27. I don’t know what are you talking Nadia
    All the time girls in a crowded situation push their boobs against me in fornt side and back and let me feel the firmness and warmth, I never mind and they do smile and enjoy. This is honest and true. Why men to blame all the times?

  29. Hello
    Hi

  30. Every body here is loudly saying about ISLAM, ISLAM and ISLAM…. how many of you practically applying Islam in your practical life.

    Every body points their finger toward Politicians and Dictators for corruption, greed, misstatement, breaking promises, unethical practices, unjustice and many more…. But have how many from us are applying these things in our practical life. It is my observation that majority of Pakistanis are liars and corrupt. It is just a matter of getting some thing and not able to get it. The one who gets it, enjoys it… the one who can not get it loudly starts saying…He is corrupt and he is this and that.

    I tell you, even poor people are not sincere to Pakistan. If they will get chance, they will do more worst than others (who are on leading positions now a days)….

    HAMARAY HAAN AAWAY KA AAWAA HE BIGRA HUA HAI>>>> So don’t blame that these are happening due to not following Islam… If your inner is not clean then you can not do good…even if you are sitting in HARAM SHARIF.

  31. Ms Nadia Malik,

    please refrain from writing in such a manner. They way you described incident happened to you is not correct. You can share but in a coded manner… I hope you understood my point.

  32. Saleem bhai kion sarh rahay ain?

    Saleem bhai kion sarh rahay ain?

    Why will I be jealous? I have every thing, MashAllah. So you don’t worry about me.

  35. there was a time when ladies who wear abaya/burqa get some some respect but not anymore. Now girls who wear abaya got a lot more attention thanks to those fashion freaks. the concept to hide yourself has changed and to me it seems like that nowadays abaya/burqa are designed to provide a better view for those preying eyes duh!!!

    Babbbaay, Babbbbbaaay

  37. after reading all this…i ask myself…what the hell did i change! i was so better before, shy, conserved…never even gave any girl a smile even when she was waving at me! but now i cant stop looking at every girl’s face :(

    bas !!! from today…i am back to my old self! i thought girls liked attention…how wrong i was!

  38. i mean…why the hell did i change*

  39. @ afzal
    My Dear Youngman
    Don’t feel embarassed, You just discovered your manHood. It’s ok

  40. It is a wrong assumption that since you are living in a country where 95% population is Muslim therefore the the people will act accordingly as per the teachings of Islam.

    No lets not drag Islam in this. Because the people you are talking about who give such remarks are ignorant and Jahils in terms of their academic as well as social education. These type of people you ‘ll find everywhere in the world with the exception that these Bollywood inspired Jahils are more in India and Pakistan.

  41. Pakistani Girls are not Pussy Cats
    By Amna Gilani • Oct 12th, 2008 • Category: Misc

    Of course not, they are ” Wild Cats ”
    I just wrote this poem on Pakistani Girls

    Main ban sanwar kar nikloon gi
    Main cham cham karti nikloon gi
    Mujhay pyar say deekho ek bar zara
    Doobara jurat mut karna
    Main hosh urha kay rakh doongi
    Main qahar macha kay rakh doongi
    Main Lardki Pakistani houn
    Main sharm o haya ki putli hoon
    Eman main dhal kay nikli hoon
    Hijab hai meri ankhoon main
    Quran hai meray batoon main
    Fashion pay meray mut tum jana
    Yeh dhoka hergiz mut khana
    Main Larki Pakistani hoon

    It just arrived I will write more and correct it

  42. That poem is contradictory. She has hijab in her eyes and Qur’an on her tongue yet she disobeyed the Qur’an in adorning her self and going out. A woman who wears perfume and goes out is known as an adulteress in the Jannah. That’s just for perfume even with hijab, what about dressing like someone cheap and desolute.

  43. Yes it is.
    I don’t make them. This how they come. I have seen many young girls like this.
    Quite modern by looks, but Eman in their hearts, speach and behavior.
    and also ultra modern behind hijab and veil with same buland kirdar.
    I respect all women as long as they are trying to be the best in every way.
    We can argue but top Pakistani female leaders are like this, and they are role models for new generation.as long as they dress properly, and look respectable outside I don’t have any problem.
    Ab bhai hum Arabian Hazar Dastan Girls tu expect nahin kar saktay.
    Time is changing
    But you are right Shahid, very correct.

  54. Why do Indo-Aryans show time and time again that they are indeed the lowest form of human beings that Allah has (probably purposely) created on this planet? The guys - like you f**king illiterate morons have never seen women in your sad little lives whenever you’re on the streets in your own country or worse still, when you have escaped your hell-hole villages and managed to find “work” (legally or illegally) in Dubai or Italy the UK or anywhere else! And the women - why do you think that men stare at you - what are you, f**king genetically stupid or something? You wall around on the one hand, covering your heads with duppattas or hijabs and then wear the brightest goddam lipstick that can be seen from Mars, the tightest salwar kamiz with hips swaying more appetisingly than a donkey’s arse to a Pathan (no offence but i’ve seen the attraction on a chance visit to Peshawar!)…. and then you have the audacity to complain and moan like silly little schoolgirls when some half-blind village grandad calls you over kindly for a few minutes groping…. I have a really good idea, not sure if it will work but it would surely be worth the effort… why not India and Pakistan have a nuclear war, that way - we can kill 2 birds with 1 stone - the most f**ked up and backward culture ever to have graced God’s Earth and Bollywood. Job’s a good ‘un.

    Now f**k off and let me get back to turning down a few more illegal asylum seeker applications at the Home Office.
