and 10 more things .... I hate about being a woman

1. Having to prove your maternal instincts by actually giving birth - hey! women who cannot or do not want to produce children are branded 'witches' from the netherworld! If the actual ordeal of carrying a child for nine months and then giving birth makes you a mother then what of men? what gives them the grand position of being a father??? there are thousands of women who 'adopt' and are equally loving moms.

2. Being branded as 'frustrated' every time you show anger at something or someone. OH! she's not getting enough of you know what!!!!

3. If you're ambitious and hard-working - getting the label of ruthless and of dubious character! hell - the assumption being you cannot get somewhere with sheer dedication for you are merely a woman.

4. Being slighted, derided, maligned, hurt and ruined by other women, especially when they run off with your husband!

5. Having to look good - to keep your husbands in line and attracted to you. Never mind his paunch, bald head, tired eyes, bloated face, and ever increasing uber 'boring' non-personality.

6. Waiting for ALLAH literally, to make lives easier for us, hoping against hope that all the sacrifices we make today in terms of our relationships with our husbands, children, parents will reap rewards (wishful thinking)

7. Falling for every new age spiritual mantra! ufffff! live in the NOW (Eckhart Tolle) as if we can possibly live in any other time. Oprah, live your dreams and get your AHA moment, What? 'Men are from mars and women are from Venus" HUH??? as if we didn't know that already! Attract good things to yourself by the laws of attraction!!!! 'the secret' PLEASE strangle me!

8. Being a sucker for every deliverer from SATAN be it the revelations of Al-HUDA, myriads of Quran classes conducted by born again mominas! Women! you can read the Quran and its tafsir for yourself, don't fall for all this.

9. Wanting IMRAN KHAN to be our next president? Without ever bothering to read through his party manifesto or understanding his party Ideology! Women he is in cahoots with your sweet Taliban so be ready to say good bye to mini skirts, alcohol, smoking and pahh-r-ty-ing............

10. Getting all excited about Indian soap operas and Pakistani dramas UFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!


P.S body hair, I mean WHY??????
