Here Is Why Sadaf Kanwal’s Housewifely Duties Should Not Concern You

If you follow twitter trends, you must have seen Sadaf Kanwal’s name trending at the top. Her recent interview with a private channel has sparked a debate across all social media platforms. The credit of this unnecessary trend goes more to Sadaf’s critiques than Sadaf herself.

The hypocrisy of social media continues to prevail. On one hand, we complain about women not getting enough respect in their professional and private lives. At the same time, we miss no chance to undermine the ones who have earned themselves a status.

This duality of standards particularly applies to women themselves. Everytime a woman voices her opinion, women even surpass men to ridicule her. It looks like woman is the enemy of woman after all.

Regardless of what opinion Sadaf Kanwal has of feminism, she does not deserve the abusive language people are using for her in their attempts of looking “cool.”

Her marriage with Shahroz Sabzwari was with the consent of both Shahroz and herself. Even Shahroz’s ex-wife Saira does not seem to be bothered by it as much as these social media scholars are.

Our online moral police set to work once again when Sadaf appeared in an interview with Shahroz recently and shared her perspective about her marriage, work and feminism.

“Our culture is our husband. I married him, which means I have to pick up his shoes and iron his clothes. I know where all of Shahroz’s things are and what and when he has to eat. I need to know these things because I am his wife and I am a woman,” Sadaf said.

Shehroz Sabzwari agreeing with his wife, said that “even a man cannot compete with a woman, only a woman can fulfill that responsibility, a man cannot even approach her.”

In short, Sadaf seemed happy and contented with her husband Shehroze and praised him. Shehroze seemed to admire his wife and complimented her. If they both are happily married, accept their roles as husband and wife and neither of them is hurting the other in any way, no one has any right to dictate them how should they lead their marital life.

Yes, you can disagree with Sadaf’s definition of feminism and Shahroz’s idea of liberalism. But disrespect is completely out of context. It’s high time when we learn the concept of difference of opinion. Let’s just agree to disagree and live and let live!
