Pakistan is a land of high morals values where people greet each other when meeting, they respect elders whether they know them before or not, it is mandatory for them to help a stranger finding the way. Pakistanis are known as desi too, a term used for the people who follow the core values of the Land of Pure. But it is difficult to define them as they don’t have certain traits or characteristics. Sometimes, they do what they preach and sometimes ask others to follow what the preached! They can deliver lengthy speeches on ‘How Education Is Necessary For A Girl’ but their inner self-requires a homemaker bahu, desi people love their parents but they lie to their parents most as well!

Unfortunately, we desi people present ourselves as ‘perfect’ when it comes to home decor, dressing sense, and food. But actually, they love to be the moral police of the society. Invading others privacy, making fun of others dressing sense, asking inappropriate questions are the things desi people never mind. The lack of basic etiquettes in desi people is a major issue of Pakistani society, instead of giving lectures, we should start reviving the core values of desi society.

A desi blogger, The Desi Wonder Woman, raised her voice on the lack of etiquettes in desis because she can feel the pain of the people who are targeted all the time. In a nutshell, she has discussed a major issue which needs to be discussed. Read it calmly!

I’ve realized desis lack basic etiquette in general. We love talking about saleeqa and chai ke matching cups and tea trolley setting protocols but when it comes to actual tameez and good manners, it’s an absolute shitstorm. Rude questions, mean comments, point maarna, fazool sawaal poochna, boundaries na rakhna. Privacy, space, live-and-let-live, yeh concepts hum pe farigh hain. Jahan dekho, someone or the other is asking someone a stupid, privacy-invading, inappropriate, impolite question or comment. ‘Pehla bacha kyoon nae hua’, ‘doosra kab hoga’. Single larki ke rishton se le kar, married larki ke bedroom ke acrobatics. When the kitchen is clean, it’s categorized as saleeqa but basic human etiquette ki na koi training aur na koi value. It’s about time we realized asking personal questions and invading someone’s privacy, even under the pretense of ‘concern’, ‘please don’t mind’ or ‘don’t take offense’ is BADTAMEEZ. Lack of etiquette. BAD MANNERS. Ghar ki safai karnay se pehley, demagh ki safai zaroori hai. Ours, and that of our kids and future kids. Doosrey kyon bardasht karain, aap khud apni badtameeziyan bandh karain. Please, tameez seekhain aur sikhayen. Aur bakwas baton aur sawalon pe the end lagayen. Thank you. #saynotobadtameezi #maintainboundaries #cutephools.

Sensitive people are very observant and are not judgmental in the slightest. They make observations and then make sense of the world around them. They need answers to their curiosity and so does this Desi Wonder Woman. She has raised her voice on an important issue of desi people, you are completely allowed to disagree with her but please come up with a valid reason not just end the debate by saying ‘Hum To Aisa Nahe Kerte’
