Do you support girls riding bikes in Pakistan? Vote and see what other people think about it.

A lot has been written about the ride-hailing services in Pakistan.

Talk about the Florida woman almost been kidnapped by her uber driver, or the Karachi girl jumping out of the car to avoid the harassment, women on road can never feel completely safe.

What other options do women have? You might have seen a girl pillion riding, but have you seen one riding solo on a bike? Well, recently a girl made waves on social media for riding a bike on Karachi streets and it brought a smile on many faces.

Girls are now breaking the barriers to live in their comfort and few more girls started to ride a bike (not a scooty).

Whats your thought about it? Is it a step towards a world for women having their comfort or will it increase the harassment cases? Vote and see what other people got to say about it.

    No

  2. Just saying no is not a complete answer. U have to think from all aspects before just saying yes which i think masses do to express there liberal side to the world but these people dont even calculate and identifies the issues , obsticals and dangers that can happen with girls riding bike on daily routine . When i voted no i put my sisters in the situation. We unconditionally compare our society with the western societies but their dynamics and ours are totally different so if girls ride bike there in west that doesnt means they can do it here. We have serious security issues , we have un pleasent infrastructure , we have social and religion norms and restriction. I think its not feasible for girls to ride bikes. Because 1) law and order situation is at its worst condition. 2) its still considered as unethical in socity 3) people who says yes may be just want to enjoy adventures but are bot rational thinker 4) riding bike is backed by riding cycles so even if all variables remains contant girls have to drive well to drive safe 5) gender equality gives equal rights to both genders but we in pakistan gives more respact to women than men thats Y we want women to enjoy services of men and relatives.

    I am totally in favor of women riding motorcycles. What we must understand is that some may be doing it out of joy, but many would be doing for the very same reasons men do. It is cheap and affordable, and not everyone in our country can afford to keep a car. It is due to necessity. Many of them can’t afford to travel in rickshaws daily for their commuting needs either, hell! I can’t even afford riksha daily. If they travel on public transport, such as a Hi-ace/Wagon, then it is no ease either and why should they when the opportunity is available as a means of a motorcycle.This step will give women independence, something which the patriarchal society of Pakistan fears the most. The males want the women to be dependent on them only, to move around from one place to another. In most cases, if the male member of the family is not available, or busy, it is the females who suffer. Again, let’s not forget this that not all can afford a car or a driver.
    Be positive and support your Mothers, sisters, and wife..

    Larkiyo ko proper dress code kr k agar bike chalani hai to phr theek hai lekin wo possible bhi nahi or shi bhi nahi

    Lekin beyond to this larkiyo ko care ki zada zarurt hoti hai bila wajha koi masla hua to unke lea zada problem hoti hai as compare to boys

    Sb se zada Aik cheez k wo bike chalaienge to accident ratio 200% bhar jaeyga for sure

    I suggest car for them … safe covered no need to wear any dress code

    Yes women should ride bike. We girl’s are so dependent on others even for everything they wanna do in their lives like going universities shopping anywhere. Travelling on buses isn’t easy so bike is cheapest solution

      things has changed with time, i saw girls in Karachi riding bike.. no one was staring them… it look okay. .. in punjab women ride bike i saw it in news they provide service to villagers

  8. Muqeem says:

    I fully support but the road conditions are not good.

  9. Qaiser Ali says:

    Why you think she can’t ?
    I’ve seen many girls riding bikes.There’s no specific instruction mentioned l that a bike should be ridden by boys only
    Enjoye your ride. Wear helmet

  10. tehseen says:

    yes they should

  11. Maida says:

    Yes I agree that girls should be allowed to ride a bike. Think of how many of our problems that could be solved. We won’t have to ask our brothers or father for a lift. And we wont have to waste alot of money on Careem or Uber.

    Chala sakti hai mager deeni taqazey Barue kaar laty hue phir koi masla nahi hai.

    Girls shouldn’t ride bikes because girls r driving cars and they r not driving properly many accidents took place because of girls improper driving so that if girls ride bikes they can’t manage it easily and properly so the conclusion of my thinking and statement is girls can’t ride bike this is the platform which is only for boys

  14. Aena waseem says:

    I don’t support girls bike riding in our country because girls are driving cars and they don’t even drive a car easily.Because of girls, many accidents took place so how they can properly ride a bike and now the conclusion of my thinking and statement is that the platform of riding bikes is only for boys not for girls .Reply if u agree.

  15. Haniya Ghayas says:

    Yes girls should ride a bike so that they will not be dependent on their brothers and father.They can do their own work by themselves easily . Then they don’t have to wait for anything they just go and get what ever they want . Some girls go outside for fun only but some go for a specific reasons . Boys think that girls are dependent only on them but I want that girls should not be dependent on anyone . They have to be free to go any where . The reason for writing this is to get freedom for girls . If u guys agree then comment in favour .

  16. Ushnah Ghayas says:

    In my opinion, girls should be permitted to ride a bike. The reason to this is that riding a bike makes many things easy for girls. If a girl rides a bike it’s like an opportunity for them to come at a place where they can earn for themselves . This would release them from depending on others for their needs. A girl who is riding a bike is not all the time characterless she may be helpless too . So as a result according to my views girls should ride a bike .

    Lrkio ko bike chlani chaiye or zarur chlani chaiye Q k akhir kb tk wo mohtaj rhen gi kisi ki apny kam khud krna chaiye or mard beshak strong hota hy lekn ALLAH pak ny Orat ko kisi sy km nhi rkha

  18. Fatima Aamir says:

    Yessss… girls should ride a bike because they can be helpful for their family too…
    why do we always trust on careem,uber and rakshaw drivers they are strangers, rather we should trust ourself to protect us…
    Girls are not weak we are very strong to survive in any situation…
    As far as accidents are concern so Girty hen shahsawar he medan e jang men…
    Dont have fear and trust in you…. All girls this is for you…
