Why education for girls is not talked about enough?

It is interesting to note that girls’ education, in specific, is most talked about. There was a time when in Eastern World it was considered useless to educate the girls. But the time has changed now.

Talking about Asian society in general and Pakistani society in specific, girls’ education has been discussed to a great extent. Even before Malala Yousufzai’s appearance on media, girls’ education was no more a taboo but a pride for family.

If we look at the Provincial level results of 10th grade and 12th grade for last ten years we can see that the girls secured more distinctions for them than the boys. The ratio of girls getting admissions in medical schools and other professional institutes is way more than the boys now.

Government issues more jobs for women than the men in order to get all those educated women to be employed.

There are some remote areas where girls are not allowed to be educated but the number of such places is few. And the mainstream media talks openly about girls education where it is needed as in the case of Malala.
