In Pakistani Culture.who gets more importance?

Unfortunately, We still have this men "dominating" society in a sense, where men get more importance or "chances" Keeping Islam in mind, men are suppose to "dominate" women or they are the guardians ? actually, we take it wrong, women are not under men, they have been given equal right for "living" or to "make choices". Men are suppose to be the caretakers, hum abhi beta paida hona zayda important hay ki mentality se nahi niklay hay.

A man having money.

In past, boys used to get more importance than girls as they were the only one considered for earning and managing expenses. However this culture is changed now. I have observed equal importance for female in normal families which was only enjoyed by only males. Parents also give extra attention to girls because they are suppose to get married and leave homes soon . Other than that, either male or female, one need to prove himself important to others. Thus for me this gender difference don't matter much esp in educated families.

The question seems to highlight a moot point, as Pakistan is known to be a patriarchal society where men dominate in everything.
Islam has divided the burden, the woman has no responsibility of being the bread winner but that doesn't mean she can't do a job. .It just means it's the husbands responsibility though in these tough economic times more and more women are doing jobs to contribute to the finances.
Even in educated families people want their first grandchild to be a boy.So that they can proudly announce it.It's a pity really.Indoctrination of centuries , from the day of Jahaliya still haven't gone.
