Women are female and have their own way of feminine existence, without them becoming quasi-men.

I don't mean to be crude but a gymmed female figure doesn't really excite me.

When will International Men Day will be celeberated?

November 19th. But do we need such a day ??

Anything from the Noble Book about fulfilling yours accords when done? (and this one is not conditional so as one breaks and other leaves if in case you are thinking that, its open accord). Also, might be some example of great MAN sticking to the toughest and unfair treaty signed?
Well this discussion/debate won't go anywhere, so I take my leave by resting with this. "Human, Women, Children, Specially-able, Inter-sex and any other RIGHTS form has got nothing to do with feminism, Liberalism, Western-ism or anything as such, in my view.
Thanks and best wishes!

Here's the thing, everything you have stated above is already addressed in Quran and Sunnah of our Prophet (SAW). Islam is a complete way of life.

"This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion." - Quran 5:3

When people begin looking to man-made ideologies for solutions they are indirectly saying that Islam is incomplete and Prophet Muhammad (SAW) message is incomplete, and the onus is on such people to prove this before they discard Islam and start copy-pasting slogans from White American feminists.

All the answers are in the Quran and Sunnah; how to treat your wives, how to behave with women in public, how to sit, how to eat, how to speak, manners, conduct in personal and public life.

That fact that the most basic understanding of Islam needs explaining to Muslims shows how far we have strayed from our religion which is the answer to all our social and personal issues in life.

A man's guide to celebrating International Women's Day

SONIA ASHRAF

SENIOR SUBEDITOR

Women's Day is coming soon, and we want you to be prepared!

International Women's Day is upon us and ladies you know what that means. And men, you clearly don't.

It's okay, we get it. It's a difficult time, where you have no idea how to maneuver in a world where women want the same importance as that of men. Heck 2018 was dubbed the year of the woman and that makes you all feel left out - even though you have 2,017 years to you but still!

March 8 is a scary day for men who don't quite understand all the hullaboo women have been creating all this time but don't worry! We're here to help you.

We have a solid guideline that'll get you through this extremely feminal day and who knows? Maybe it'll help you understand all that hullabaloo and maybe join in.

Google when International Men's Day is

This is the one time of year where men wonder "Why is there no men's day?"

Let us make it easy for you, November 19 is International Men's day. You do have a day and it's been there for a while. Now that you know, maybe you can stop making it all about you and actually move on with the celebrations. Also, you don't wanna be the guy who thinks he's brought on an excellent point only to be so easily proven wrong.

Watch a movie with a strong female lead

Khurram@Saykhurram

We have seen women take the lead in cinema and it's getting better. Whether it's action like Wonder Woman or thriller like Black Swan or drama like Hidden Figures, we have 'em in every genre so you don't really have an excuse. Heck Pakistan has seen strong female leads with Cake and Motorcycle Girl so yeah. Pick a movie and watch it. It might be uncomfortable to see a woman do everything a man can and still be true to herself but hey, that's what we wanna normalise.

Reading utter tone-deaf comments/statements regarding the #MeToo movement & feminism in general. Gender sensitivity training should be mandatory across all fields.

Confused on how to be an ally to the women in your lives? OKB knows how it's done and maybe you could learn a thing or two on how to address problems that come with the patriarchy and internalised misogyny. You're more likely to listen to a man than a woman anyway and at this point, we'll take it.

Wish a stranger "Happy Women's Day" and mean it

Go on, try and say it... without any sarcasm or mockery. It'd be better if you wish a man. It might be difficult with alllll that toxic masculinity making you want to punch a wall to prove yourself or your strength - we don't know why you act like this - but it's totally possible and it might make you feel nice since you won't have to put up a 'mard ko dard nahi hota' front.

Give the women in your life the gift of conversation

Instead of flowers and chocolates to acknowledge the women in your life, start up a conversation with them and learn about the problems they're actually going through because of their gender. Sure, you could've looked up a lot of things all this time but now is better than never. Talk with the intent of learning rather than saying your piece. Remember, this is their day.

Resist the urge to say 'Not all men'

On Women's Day, you're bound to hear about the problems women go through including harassment, misogyny and hypocritical taboos of the society. And while we can give all the explanations in the world about how 'Not all men' is a ridiculous thing to say - and have been doing so long enough - but for now, all we ask is to do your part and avoid saying this phrase as a defense mechanism that shifts the conversation away from the important topics and, once again, makes it all about you.

Go to the Aurat March

This might sound like a surprise but the Aurat March isn't something women do for fun.

They do it to reclaim public spaces and let their voices and issues be heard. You know what would make that great? If you'd hear 'em out. We're sure you want feminists to stop it already with this outcry of wanting their rights but here's the hack; join them in getting them the rights, they won't ask again if they have them!

And finally, khud khana garam karlo

Seriously, of all the days, this would be a good one to understand how household chores shouldn't be gendered and you taking care of your own needs doesn't make you any less of a man (who came up with that anyway?). Heat up your food, and if you're still unsure what women mean when they say this - even though it's been a year - then here's a simple outline to help you get the gist of it.

Western society is evil, and they don't follow Islamic customs. We should not be importing that ugly stuff from west.

As per Islamic customs, we all ought to wear loose clothing in society, both men and women. You know, change starts from home, so before expecting others to not follow western customs, do you plege to yourself begin wearing only shalwar kameez and not western evil haraam pants and shirts, or is that a privilege only available to men?



Hitting someone back with the same reasoning is not strawmaning.

What banner were you hoisting in the march btw ? I am curious...

Sorry but why do women have to ride motorcycles or go to gyms to feel equal to men ??

Women are female and have their own way of feminine existence, without them becoming quasi-men.

Why are you even asking him and furthermore tagging an army with you. Our brother @ghazi52 is a simple man, he just loves to post and not get into debates or even simple answers

As for your concern, this must be asked directly to those screw minded women who think that doing so and so will prove them equal to man while no one in the world even cares if they can do or not or if they are equal or not. Men respect women for who they are naturally, not some fake attention seeking chubby, elephant sized, ugly faced ranting ladies out in the sunshine with some cartoon-ish banners.

Thats what the molvis here say though

 

[jamahir]

not some fake

I find thin women who wear high heels to be fake.

chubby

Think about this. If I post pics of thin women they will be acceptable but if I post pics of chubby women I could be banned for posting "vulgar" pics. Why do you think that is ??

Thats what the molvis here say though

Well, the molvis are against the very idea of a free woman. Let us consider Malala.

Men and women are not equal. Both have their own roles.

Yes, equal in rights but different in roles.

thats true
I'll be joining the protest march of Jamat E Islami opposing the Aurat March tomorrow though

Malala is a different case, don’t take it to Gender shit, that is a drama and staged story, and we don’t care for such dramas be it a man or a woman or a Tranny...

 

[jamahir]

that is a drama and staged story

Come on, bhai, who wants to get shot in the head just for publicity ??

Malala is a different case

So what do you think is her case about ??

 

[StormBreaker]

Come on, bhai, who wants to get shot in the head just for publicity ??

If “shot in the head” was true that is...
If we debate on this, neither would you accept my views and neither would you. Pointless debate, another controversial topic, no use...

A sane post

 

[StormBreaker]

Come on, bhai, who wants to get shot in the head just for publicity ??



So what do you think is her case about ??

Disagreement or hate for malala is due to the staged drama of “Getting shot and yet not even a mark on the head”. Malala’s hypocrisy is on the fact that she got herself setup outside, got name and fame, fake sympathies, in reality, world judges you on the basis of races and nationality backgrounds, and to most of those so called “You Go Girl”, “Malala - An inspiration”, she will always be a Mere “Low life Pakistani/Subcontinental” . That is the truth of the world.

What did she ever do for anyone ?

Does she have money to make schools ? NO,

How did she ever benefit Pakistan in terms of educational reforms and infrastructure? Never and nothing

Nothing more than another Greta Thunberg Drama, Words and Words, Bari bari baatein, mic and fame.
