Pakistan is more progressive than what is shown in Ariel ad

Those who say that women are not allowed to work in Pakistan are ill-informed. One can find thousands of women working in factories, offices, schools, hospitals, in homes as domestic workers, etc. Women are employed in the construction sector, too. In villages, Pakistani women work in the fields.However, the recent advertisement by Ariel being aired in Pakistan paints a different picture of our society. It is not acceptable. The slogans are senseless and the makers of the advertisement are either ignorant of the development in Pakistan, or are simply trying to tarnish the image of the Pakistani society.
