The gorgeous Saheefa Khattak was seen all over the social media based on her lovely wedding. The model recently tied the knot with the love of her life and well, it gave us all some serious wedding goals.
Sitting in her pixie haircut while wearing fancy eastern clothes, dancing away the moment with the love of her life – Saheefa and her husband definitely broke the typical Pakistani stereotypes.
Seeing the wedding pictures, it is indeed safe to say the confidence the couple was giving each other based on their compatibility and love.
While We are On Breaking Stereotypes, Saheefa Shared How She Belongs to a Sunni Household, Whereas her Husband Belongs to the Shia Sect!
Often women in the world of entertainment share how they go through hurdles to choose the career they admire. Given how modeling falls under the typical-desi-notion of a ‘disrespectful’ career, even Saheefa was questioned if she would continue her career after getting married.
In a Post Shared on her Facebook Few Days Before her Marriage, Saheefa Wants People Not to Define Women by their Kitchen-Duties!
Getting married is a very mixed feeling. I’m in my blue denim and white T-shirt all day long and in the evening I’m this conventional bride to be in a yellow fancy outfit. It’s beautiful. He made it beautiful for me.
There were few things which have been bothering me since the news of I getting married broke on the social media.
One question that has hit me so bad & made me feel ashamed of being a woman, once again I felt that we *woman* have no self-esteem or right to choose what WE want to choose.
*Saheefa what about your Career, Your husband to give you the permission to work?*
We are getting married because we accept each other in every way be it personal or professional.
My number of questions to everybody out there:-
Why do you assume that woman on this planet belongs only in the kitchen?Â
Why a woman can’t be empowered alone?Â
Why do you think a woman needs a protector who has to be a MAN?Â
Why am I told to act like a bride? What is acting like a bride btw?Again I would say we woman don’t need a man to protect us, we would always want a partner to love us, if we weren’t strong, you wouldn’t have existed.
If a woman is strong and empowered enough to go after her dreams, she definitely knows what she is capable, and that is certainly NOT being defined by the society on typical notions.
Keep slayin’, Saheefa! <3
