The change I want to make

Give them books, and an open sky to


fulfill their dreams. Give them hopes,
not husbands. This is the reflection of
intuitions that keep hovering around
my mind. This invasion that I want to
remove from my society has become
my ulterior motive.

Prey them with books and education


not with their spouses. Let them be the
victim of their knowledge not the
victim of early marriages. Thousands
and thousands of girls desire to breed
their souls with the magic of proselytism. Thousands of them relish to foster their lust for knowledge. And
thousands of them crave to bring into evidence their true identity with the aid of education but how many
of them eventually get what they want is a question that needs to be ponder over and the worst part is
that those number in thousands only get deprive of education rather than being fed on their dreams.
Their castle in the air becomes just a mere delusion. Although, the alternative they get of education i.e.
early marriages is legal/halal but apart from a feminist formation of a mentalist object, do they really
endorse the standard consensus of legality. Providing them with a marriage certificate in spite of an
academic degree certificate is no better than elevating plague. This plague is as bad as termite that
undermining the foundations of our society.

Moreover, According to UNESCO, Pakistan is ranked as the 2nd highest country for paving the path of
illiteracy, it has the second most noteworthy number of children out-of-school, out of which 66% (more
than 3 million) are girls. Primary enrollment in schools in Pakistan is way lower when contrasted to other
crouched income countries. Only 54% of Pakistani girls have succeeded in their way out for elementary
schooling and the ratio in turn for secondary schooling drops out to 30%. The figures for young girls from
rural regions are far more detestable (50% primary enrolment, 24% secondary).

As far as the full picture is concerned. Gender parity, poverty, male chauvinism and early marriages have
become the most devastating grounds for the aforementioned facts and are accountable for cultivating
the perception that causes girls to often lose out to sons. Men nearly dies when a kidney stone in
millimeters passes through his prick, but has anyone thought about the situation when women give birth
to a 7 pound child who passes through her vulva, so what makes the male and sons so dominating that
even while counting on education girls always lose out to sons in poor families.

Furthermore, we got this epidemic from the old days where infant girls were put to death brutally after
their first breath in this world and now the concept is revived and newborn girls are put to death in the
womb of their mother. Even if they get the chance of living they get pin away with societal obligations
because we are so damn stuck with our superannuated thinking and old-fangled rationalization.
Nevertheless, this nuisance is getting fueled by the perception of investing in children. Parents recognize
their sons as their only profitable chance for the evening of their life. And that's how girls are often
overlooked and hence are forced to the dungeon of early marriage. While not knowing the basics of a
matrimonial life which eventually lead to scuffles, craftiness and even divorce in extreme cases.

In addition to this, Getting education is the basic right of every human so is the women's suffrage. So, we
have to stop this spreading wildfire before it’s too late. Education is the main apparatus for contravention
of this intergenerational cycle of early marriages, male chauvinism, tyranny and poverty of women. And
educated women has the power to renovate the society by scrubbing this clingy plague. And above all,

‘If you educate a man, you educate an individual. But if you educate a woman, you educate a nation’
