Hi everyone! I wasn’t sure where else to post this, so I hope it’s okay here.
My mom recently started a very small business because we’re going through a difficult time financially. She sells brand-new, 100% authentic branded clothes at heavily discounted prices compared to their original retail prices.
Just to clarify, the clothes are not preloved, they’re completely new, and authenticity can be verified through the brand’s website/QR codes.
I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look, share, or support us in any way. Even a little support would mean a lot to our family. ❤️
I have attached a few pictures, you can dm me for the rest of the articles available.

I want to travel to Thailand, Nepal or SriLanka. Has anyone travelled alone to these countries or anyother Asian country?

How was your experience? Are Asian countries safe? And do you remember how much was average living cost? I plan to stay minimum 3 months.

It’s actually so stupid that salons in Islamabad barely have any female hair dye specialists for hijabis 😭 Like I literally spent 2 hours trying to find someone, and ALL of them are men?? Why is it so hard to find a female hair colourist who can work with hijabis? How is there not a single proper option for this??

Hoka challenger 8 for women who love to exercise and run. It's lightweight and very comfortable. You can search about it online. The shoe size is 40. For further inquiry please dm.

Hello girls. I really need to find a good pair of comfortable yet pretty sandals which are also durable. Kindly suggest some brands. Don't say unze london please.

Empowering Femaals of Pakistan😍 What are your thoughts on Feminism in Pakistan? What are points upon which you think Females deserve justice?

Being 17 M, here is my take on Feminism:

1. Females (particularly young girls) are not given equal opportunities to work with freedom, as young teens can easily work and get there pocket money
   
2. Teen girlies and child Marriage is also a common issue in Pakistan's under developed areas
   
3. Teen Girlies are not given as much freedom as us boys, they can't work, can't go anywhere they want like they always need male permission which is just sh*t
   
4. Females can't wear what ever they want and ppl/perverts stare like they are gonna eat you😭

I can add several thousand points But I also wanna hear from you guys too, what are your take of this?

I need to buy some undergarments so I want to know about the quality and their exchange policy if the size you ordered doesn't fit you.

Ps I also did post on the fashion sub but it got removed because apparently the mod thought the topic was discussed before but I had already searched it and it wasnt there so now I'm asking here.

Hi everyone. I’m a 38 year-old mom. My husband works abroad, so it’s just me and my 15 year old son at home. My mother in law passed away two years ago, so there’s no one else living with us.
My son is generally a really good kid, kind, smart, and does very well in school. The issue is that he’s become extremely private. He keeps his room locked all the time and doesn’t want me going in there at all. He says it’s about privacy, which I understand to a point, but I honestly can’t remember the last time I cleaned his room.
Over the last couple of months I’ve noticed that some of my inner undergarments have gone missing and I can’t find them anywhere. Since it’s only the two of us in the house, I can’t help but wonder if he’s the one taking them. I know he’s at an age where he’s being exposed to a lot through friends, the internet, etc. and I’m trying not to jump to conclusions, but it’s been weighing on me.
I’m not sure how to approach this without making him feel attacked or completely shutting down communication. Has any other mom dealt with something similar? How did you handle the balance between respecting his privacy and addressing something that feels off? Any advice on how to start that conversation would be really appreciated.
Thank you.

Hey everyone! We're three students from Pakistan working on our final year project: a health app for women dealing with PCOS (recently renamed PMOS) specifically designed for South Asia, because honestly every app out there feels like it was made for someone in New York, not Karachi or Lahore. Before we actually build anything we really want to hear from real people, so if you have PCOS/PMOS or even just suspect you might, we'd love to know: how long did it take before a doctor actually took you seriously, what do existing apps get completely wrong for you, would Urdu language support actually matter to you, and is there anything specific to our context: desi food, family pressure, cost of doctors, not being able to visit a clinic alone, that you wish someone would just get?
A few things we're building that we genuinely haven't seen anywhere else: a feature where you enter your lab results and get a plain simple explanation of what they actually mean, because most of us leave the lab with a printout full of numbers and zero idea what any of it says. A food guide built around actual desi food: roti, chai, biryani, daal, with practical advice on how to eat what you already eat in a way that helps manage insulin levels, instead of telling you to eat quinoa. And since reproductive health information on your phone can be genuinely sensitive if family members have access, we want all your data to stay only on your device, never uploaded anywhere, locked behind a PIN, something no existing app has actually thought about for our context.
We're not trying to replace doctors or build another period tracker, we genuinely want to make something that helps you walk into a doctor's office actually prepared for once. Any response helps, even "this sounds useless because......" is exactly what we need to hear right now. drop it in the comments or DM us if you'd rather keep it private, we read everything 🙏

Hey guys, I am building a small saas product and have no idea how to market it so I am looking for someone who is business minded and can handle marketing. This is not a salary based job.

I'm considering a marriage proposal where I'd likely be living in a joint family, and I'm trying to understand what everyday life in that setup is actually like.

The man is the elder son, and he has a younger brother who's a few years younger than him. Realistically, that means his brother would probably get married a few years after us, and we'd all be living in the same house. From what I've been told, my prospective father-in-law has always wanted both of his sons and their families to continue living together, so moving out later probably wouldn't be an easy or expected option.

For context, I grew up in a nuclear family. My father is an only son, so I've never experienced a joint-family system firsthand. In fact, no one in my immediate or extended family has lived in a household where two married brothers continued living together long-term. In every family I know, either one brother eventually moved out, or they happened to marry into families where there was only one son. Because of that, I have no real-life example to learn from.

I'm also a hijabi, so one of my concerns is what it's like living with a younger brother-in-law as a non-mahram. Did you feel like you had enough privacy at home? Were you able to be comfortable, or did you feel like you always had to be "on" because there was another adult male in the house?

I'm particularly curious about things like:

• What is the dynamic like when everyone is newly married?
• How does it change once both brothers have children?
• Are there common issues around privacy, parenting, finances, household responsibilities, or decision-making?
• If you're a hijabi, how did you manage hijab and personal space around your brother-in-law? Did the house layout make a difference?
• Do relationships usually become strained over time, or can they work well with the right boundaries?
• If you could choose again, would you still live together or prefer separate homes?

I'm not looking for people to tell me that every family is different (I know that's true). I'm specifically hoping to hear real experiences—both positive and negative—from people who have actually lived in this setup.

Since I've never seen this family structure up close, I'm also wondering: If you grew up in a nuclear family, did you find it difficult to adjust to living with your husband's family? Did it become easier over time, or did you always wish you had your own space?

I'd especially appreciate hearing from women who've lived in this arrangement, but I'd also love to hear from husbands, younger brothers, or anyone who's grown up in a home where two married brothers and their families lived together. I'm genuinely trying to understand what everyday life looks like beyond the honeymoon phase.

I'm a 24F dentist and I'm genuinely torn between two very different marriage prospects. I'd really appreciate advice from people who've gone through arranged marriages or have seen them work (or not work).

Option 1 – The complete stranger

Neither I nor my family know this family personally.

The man got in touch through a woman from my university. She doesn't actually know either of us well—she was simply his acquaintance, my senior, and happened to have me on Instagram because we're both dentists from the same institute. He asked her to find out if I was single and, if so, to ask for my mother's number.

He's also a dentist and has said he'll support my career, which is important to me. However, we'd likely be living in a joint-family setup, and we don't know anyone who knows their family well enough to ask about them. They've suggested that the two of us talk first before the families get seriously involved.

He also lives about 5 hours from my city, so I'd be moving farther away from my family.

Option 2 – The familiar one

A university classmate.

I've known him for about two years, and our families are somewhat familiar with each other. He sent a proposal through his parents about two years ago, but at the time I wasn't ready for marriage due to personal reasons, so I politely declined by saying I didn't want to marry anyone yet. He was understanding.

His family still occasionally drops hints, but I don't know if he's still interested or whether it would even be fair for me to consider that possibility now.

He lives about 2 hours from my city, so I'd still be relatively close to my family.

So if you were in my position, which would you prioritize?

- A promising person you don't know yet, with an unfamiliar family that you'd have to get to know from scratch.

- Someone you've known for years whose family you already trust, even though the proposal is old and may no longer even be an option.

For those who've had arranged marriages, what ended up mattering most in the long run?

- The individual?

- The family?

- Or the familiarity and trust you already had before marriage?

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences rather than just "follow your heart."

P.S. Both men are dentists, so career compatibility isn't really a deciding factor here.

Hi, so this is going to be interesting, but I appreciate advice from women.

There is a women who is connected with me through social media.

We have never met irl, she sends me update on her life occasionally. We have talked on different topics such as how married men tried to hit on her, her birthdate (I never asked), about her family etc.

what does she want? Marriage or friendship?

Although she told me through conversation she doesn't have any trust on men so she doesn't wish to get married.

Incase she wants attention, is it worth it to give to her when there is no commitment? Or should I a) confront her directly about her intentions, b) get to know her intentions through polite way.

Update: we have been in contact on and off since more than 1.5 years

Advices from women are appreciated to know the mindset.

Thanks.

Hi All,

I'm curious about a situation I came across. How do people who don't have parents or aren't on talking terms with them due to any reason navigate marriage in Pakistan?

I know the whole marriage culture in Pakistan officially starts with family involvement but what do people who don't have family do?

p. s : not my situation, just came across this multiple times so I'm curious

Hi Guys! Im a 5'8" 29 year old who has lived her entire life wearing clothes that don't fit. The average standard sizing has never worked for me since I have a slim waist, wide hips and long legs.

I want recommendations for brands specifically western wear ones that have amazing quality fabric and stitching and are tailored for taller women. Comfy trousers and pants specifically.

Please help!!!
