dc.description The contentious area of women’s sexuality repeatedly underlies the repression of the women whose experiences are documented by Naseem. He argues that the discourse in Pakistan has established double standards through different codes of gender behavior, which clearly assert men’s superiority over women in sociocultural, economic, and political spheres. The misogyny that subordinates females to patriarchal cruelties is opposed by some Muslims, whatever their religious outlook, and upheld by others. This creates the sort of tension that makes change possible even in gender relations so set by tradition over time, so stable that most people do not question them, and so entrenched that we can call them a regime of gender oppression
