I wrote on equality of men and women and pakistan,wrote 16 pages and am reproducing my outline here,kindly comment on it as I don't feel satisfied with it.

Intro:

Women constitute almost 50% of world's popoulation
Women are participating in every field of life with men

Status of women in Islam:

Western misperception that Islam believes in oppression of women
Islam believes in equality of both men and women and the rights that Islam gave to women 1400 years back are being given to women now.
Women worked as traders and fought alongside men in wars

Status of women in Pakistan:

Male dominated society and women are treated as a property
Sold like animals in markets,not allowed to go out side of homes and their main duty is to reproduce and take care of their families
Not allowed to marry the person of their choice and in case they do,they are killed and their bodies are thrown away,
Contrary to Islamic teachings and has more to do with our tradition.

Role in development of Pakistan:

Tide is slowly in their favour now.
Participating in all fields of life alongwith men
Women are more hard working and taking distinctions in educations
Women in operational branches of armed forces
Women in Parliament,Dr.Fehmida Mirza as first women speaker of the National assembly.Their role in legislation
Women in Economic sphere,Dr.Shamshad Ahmed as first Governer of State bank


Role of Government:
Women Empowerment bill
Women Protection Bill
Benazir Income Support Program
Increased stress on female education

Conclusion:

Women are in no way inferior to men and both are working together to make Pakistan a better country.
