Actress and model Hira Tareen said she was invited to participate in the Aurat march but did not participate because she thinks the march is not purely for women’s rights and autonomy.
The actor recently took part in a private fashion magazine podcast and spoke openly about various issues, including women’s and men’s issues.
The actress said that she is a feminist, but that does not mean that women’s rights should be discussed in the same way.
Tareen revealed that she had received an invitation to participate in the annual Aurat march, but did not attend because the march has many purposes; it is not purely for women’s rights and autonomy.
Hira Tareen during an interview said that violence against women is condemnable in all circumstances, there are no two opinions about it, but it is also true that the privileges enjoyed by women in Pakistan are nowhere to be found.
Explaining her point of view, she said that the dignity of women is respected and given importance in Pakistan.
Now, when a woman comes out in a bold outfit, people will definitely notice her, but that doesn’t mean that men always look at women with dirty looks and thoughts.
Hira Tareen said that some men will also look at women in bold clothes because they want to see who they are, where they come from, etc.
She said that men who look at women with bad intentions and vulgar thoughts will also see women wearing a veil, hijab or shalwar kameez with the same bad intentions.
It has nothing to do with clothes, but not everyone sees women with bad thoughts.
