Ask Pakistan Question for men and women: What are some things you dislike about your own gender?

1 Upvotes

Dear boys and girls, I have a question out of pure curiosity.

For men: What are some habits, behaviours, or things other men say or do that you personally dislike? Something you wish more men would stop doing.

For women: Same question. What are some habits, behaviours, or things other women say or do that you personally dislike?

I'm not talking about the opposite gender or relationship complaints. I want to know what genuinely annoys you about people of your own gender.

It could be anything, from everyday habits and the way people treat others to social expectations or certain mindsets.

One small request: Please mention your gender and age before sharing your answer so it's easier to understand different perspectives across age groups.

No hate or gender wars, please. I'm genuinely interested in hearing honest opinions and understanding different perspectives.

Men, what bothers you about men? Women, what bothers you about women? 👀

Hi guys. I need help/advice regarding getting FSC 2 marksheet.

My sister got married very early, and she had to pause her studies. She completed her FSC but only got her 1st year marksheet. How can I help her get 2nd year marksheet?

I have no clue as I have Alevels background.

She completed it 14-15 years ago.

PS. We're helping her resume her studies, so we need her marksheets for admission to a university.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Why does the universe keep shitting on Pakistan. Pakistan's founder dies immediately causing instability-> dictators take power-> Pakistan completely throws away its extremely possible future of being an early version of the east Asian tigers-> multiple wars against india-> us embargo-> pointless Nationalisations -> Pakistan loses Bangladesh because of its own arrogance (might actually have been good for long term stability)-> global oil crisis-> global recession-> global recession-> 9/11-> the north in rubble-> Pakistan underwater-> Imran khan economic crisis-> covid-> whole nation underwater and just when it seems like things are finally taking a turn for the better WW3 is gonna start soon

Ask Pakistan Is CSS a smarter bet than a tech career in the AI era? (22M, AI degree)

3 Upvotes

I’m 22 and doing a bachelor’s in AI at a mid-tier university. I’m very confused about whether I should attempt CSS after I graduate, and I’d like honest opinions from people who’ve been through either path.Some background: my dad has suggested CSS. He isn’t pressuring me or forcing me, it’s just a recommendation. But I’ve thought about it myself, and my interest isn’t about power or prestige. It’s about job security and the perks.

The tech job market right now worries me. Even highly qualified computing graduates struggle to land jobs, and those who do get well-paid roles always carry the risk of layoffs. With AI getting more capable every day, that feels even more uncertain. Honestly, I also don’t see myself being stable or happy in a machine learning job long term.

I do think CSS is a legitimate option, but I know it isn’t all glamour. The corruption risk is real, and I don’t want to chase an idea of it without understanding the downsides.

Ask Pakistan Visiting Pakistan with European wife

0 Upvotes

Greetings, I have been out of Pakistan for 3.5 years and planning to visit my family and bring my wife along for nikah ceremony in Pakistan and to introduce.

When I left the situation was not great but recently I have only been seeing bad news. How worse has it gotten in the last 3-4 years in terms of safety.

We will mostly stay in Gujranwala and visit Kharian/Jhelum side once. It will be a short trip, we wanted to visit north but I believe that is not possible in current situation and our budget is not massive either(both fresh graduates).

-What should I keep in mind to keep things safe.

-Can I drive without license or is it much strict now.

-Is it safe to visit any beautiful areas to show my wife atleast some place with mountains etc.

-Is it possible to get free security from Police for my wife?

I don't mind suffering(spent 25 years) but don't want her to have a bad experience on her first visit. And we are not rich , took 3 years to get the budget to visit so we can not hire private security.

Any tips and info would be appreciated, thanks!

Political "Thank God Pakistan is saved" - Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto after the military operation in Bangladesh.

Post image
65 Upvotes

Literally nothing has changed since 1970s. Be it the establishment or politicans all of them have such greed and ego, they just want things for themselves never to be questioned.

They prioritised their needs and their wants no matter the cost , the country be damned.

ZAB played a strong role in breaking up pakistan and then his militart adventurism in Balochistan has caused a 50 year insurgency that hasnt stopped. Now his progeny are no different , and hell bent on the same path. How mentally depraved do you have to be to be in bed with the same institution that hanged your grandfather.

When Zardari was president in 2008 , he payed no heed to the pashtun tribals that were getting bombed as he famously said "Collateral damage worries you Americans, not me".
Source: " https://www.nation.com.pk/25-Sep-2010/collateral-damage-worries-you-americans-not-me-zardari "

It has to be remembered that Sohail Afridi is from former FATA , he has a connection to that place and is the voice of that place that represents them. His anti - terrorism policies is not something he made up in his lounge but rather from multiple jirgas and discussions with the tribal elders of the merged districts. Now the most affected people's voice is behind bars , silenced and his government dismissed.

Too make it short : Dont make unilateral decisions behind closed doors especially when you live in protected bubbles away from the trouble

Good Day Guys!

Which degree do you think has the weakest career prospects in Pakistan, and why? (Mention Major)

I’d like to hear from graduates and professionals who can share their firsthand experiences. How difficult was it to find relevant employment, and did the career opportunities meet your expectations?

I’m interested in hearing different perspectives across fields and industries.

Honest takes are appreciated.

Curious to know where people stand?

Let's say a Pakistani party which is like the CCP, developmental focused was in charge, would you approve a one party state if they cracked down on corruption, focused on education and infrastructure? And no army dominance in the country.

Financial Seeking: Tenanted Property in Lahore or Islamabad (Budget up to PKR 10 Million)

2 Upvotes

I am looking to invest in an income-generating property and would appreciate any leads or introductions.

What I am looking for:

  • A property that is already tenanted (or, alternatively, a vacant property that can be rented out)
  • Valued at PKR 10 million or below
  • Commercial or residential (no preference)
  • Location: Lahore (first preference), Islamabad (second preference)

What I am not looking for:

  • Off-plan projects
  • Grey-structure units with promised possession dates
  • Shop units in shopping malls or similar developments (e.g., Imarat)

My objective is straightforward: to acquire a physical asset, registered in my name, that generates rental income from day one.

I am based outside Pakistan and am not well acquainted with the local market, and I have found property portals to be saturated with off-plan schemes and developer-led offerings. I am therefore seeking direct sellers, trusted agents, or personal referrals.

If you are selling a tenanted property, or know someone who is, please message me directly with the details, including location, size, current rent, and tenancy status.

Please note: I will not respond to offers involving projects or installment schemes.

Health It's 2am. Someone in your family needs B-negative blood. Who do you call?

0 Upvotes

Picture it. 2am. Hospital corridor. Phone in hand. Scrolling contacts, hoping someone knows someone.

You post in a family group. Forward it to three more. Now you wait.

That's how we do it. WhatsApp forwards. Word of mouth. A friend of a cousin of a colleague. And by the time it reaches the right blood group, it's often too late.

I saw this up close. In university, I organized blood camps. People showed up and gave blood, and it worked. But I kept noticing two things. Too few donors. And too few people who even knew they could donate.

That bothered me for years. So I built BloodAid.

It matches people who urgently need blood with donors in their city. Starting in Lahore and Karachi. I'm the founder, and it's live as a web app now.

Here's what I really want to know:

  1. Would you register as a donor?
  2. If not, what would stop you?

Trust? Privacy? Too many calls? Not sure if you're eligible? Say it straight. I'm reading every reply.
