Problems Faced By Female Gender In Afghanistan

Art by Shamsia Hassani

( This is a glance into to lives of Afghan women , written by an Afghan girl in her teens and learning English to improve her life, after a little motivation she shared her views )

Forty years of war, chronic poverty, natural disasters are a deadly combination for people in Afghanistan. Seventy-five percent of those in need are women and children. In Afghanistan women face a lot of problems like domestic violence, abuse and expolitation. Voilence against women and girls increased after the war. Girls education in Afghanistan is impossible.Girls are not allowed to go to school for some reason, mostly because of the attacks on schools and some Afghan parents don’t want their daughters to go to school because they don’t trust their daughters.Women are not allowed to work, well maybe 1% of girls and women can work there and it’s really hard for a women to work , because their chances of being abused and raped are high.There are a lot of child marriages in Afghanistan, girls are not allowed to go outside and as soon they are 14 or 15 they marry them to an older man and in some cases the day they are born , they engange them to someone. Women don’t have any rights in Afghanistan ,girls and women who are married and lives in villages all day they just do the house chores , look after their children and they serve their in- laws all day. Well , one of the thing I am concerned about women in Afghanistan is violence. They persecute girls and women so much for instance if they say anything against their in- laws, husband or even her own family they will soon beat her and shout at her. Women rights must be respected. Women must be allowed to work and to move freely. And girls must be allowed to go to school. We should stop violence against women and girls. And child marriages should stop in Afghanistan.

Change The Way They Look At You

Life is always developing, growing and evolving, from human bodies to their internal growth it’s a journey, where almost nothing is static , when we are little we might have held a certain toy tigher to ourselves, after few years we completely ignore it like it was worthless , or during our teens the activities and adventures we try despite all the opposition & disapproval for that certain thing ,but we still eagerly try it ,because at that time it seems the most exciting thing to us, though after few years when we look back it seems utterly foolish , a lover, for whom we might be willing to die for cried rivers and buckets of tears, missed many heart beats in our twenties, turns into out most awaful crush of the past when we are more mature and get some perspective on life, we laugh at those times of childishness. It’s not just an individual going through this process of change but everyone around that individual has their opinions develop...
