"If you really want to help us, you need to help get our men educated."
"Basically the factor of male dominance in our society is not only because that the men want dominance, in fact its the female who want male domination a lot. The reason is that these women themselves are feeling hesitant in taking decisions and going outside."
" FATA is the only region in Pakistan that has no female political representation in the National Assembly and the Senate"
"In a strict patriarchal region with rigid social norms the voices of women can only be heard through their male counterparts."
These are voices of women from FATA taken from the above video documentary "Pakistan - We the women of FATA" which briefly explains the life of FATA women.
