You provided no facts. There are no studies, reports or research that looks into these questions in Pakistan.
There are multiple studies, surveys, and demographic reports that reveal that Pakistan's culture is rooted deeply in Islam and that Pakistanis are generally much more traditional in terms of alcohol consumption, sexuality, gender roles, dressing, and so on and so forth.
Basically, we have ample data to show that indian culture is getting westernized and indians losing their traditional culture, while Pakistani culture has held its own against foreign influences for the most part.
Nor are there CCTV cameras in your towns and cities that capture cases of molestation. We do. We have a mechanism to catch the culprits.
LOL, this is what I call ranting. No CCTV cameras in our cities?
Entire command and control center working in our major cities (hundreds of CCTV cameras, integrated real time security feed, and so on).
This is Lahore
This is Karachi
I can post for almost every major city in Pakistan. And this is just integrated, government security command and control centers. We have thousands of CCTVs privately installed by businesses, houses, and street communities everywhere (thanks to a decade of terrorism we all faced until two years ago).
Sorry, but it's not that we don't have CCTV cameras. It's just that we don't molest our women like indians, and our women dress modestly and don't get drunk and wear underwears and shorts to go on roads in order to feel "enlightened" and "free"...
That's why I say that we as a culture are just superior compared to you guys.
Regarding "catching culprits" part..last year, on independence day, one guy picked up a girl as "celebration of independence) (no gropping, no kissing)--just picked up a girl without her consent--and ENTIRE country went ape-shit crazy. Police caught that piece of shit within 24 hours and had to take him into "protection" since people could have seriously harmed that piece of shit for disrespecting/harassing a daughter of nation.
So yes, we not only have absolutely effective security systems--we also have a very good mechanism to catch such culprits. Btw, I can quote multiple cases out of memory (no googling) where rapists got death sentence (Islamic punishment) for their horrific deed. How many of such cases can you quote from recent memory from india? Well, you barely even punish your rapists since there is an epidemic of rapes in your country.
It is a pity that you have such a narrow minded understanding of Western culture
No, I have VERY comprehsensive view of Western culture since I LIVE here. However, it is idiots in third world countries who take a very narrow view of Western culture and western concept of modernization. For example, the western concept of "freedom" is explicibly linked to notion of justice and fariness for all. How many of indians (or Pakistanis for that matter) know this? Merely few, if any. For them, "freedom" means "I am free to do whatever I want as long as I don't impact others and people shouldn't judge me"....But that is not what "freedom" means in Western civilizational context.
And I can go on and on. I am not degrading Western culture. I am insulting ill thoughtout effort of mimicking Western culture without actually understand the western cultural concepts and what context gave rise to them. That is stupid.
What women have here is freedom - to choose to wear a full clothed sari, a salwar, or a skirt or a mini skirt. A part of the society is accepting of this exercise in freedom. A part gets wrong signals. We find it important to blame the latter part instead of the women exercising their freedom. You find it normal in blaming the women instead.
I am not blaming the women per say. Anyways, it's getting too long to lets move on..
Your policy is like this - keep eyes closed and WISH the world is fine.
Wrong.
We have our eyes opened and we are absolutely confident in our local culture and traditions (hence our culture is thriving). We don't "wish" for anything by closing our eyes. We exercise our day to day life in according to our local culture by our CHOICE.
indians on the other hand are just getting run over by negative foreign social influences that does not fit with the local indian context. And worst thing is that they see it as "progress" while the outside world laughs at them.
