I feel Afghanistan has a very strong social fabric and sense of family... what I would like to do is encourage everybody in the country to appreciate more the role of women at home and outside.
In Afghanistan, we have had a history of very strong women, and we need to reclaim that history and talk about it.
Chadaris, as far as I'm concerned, I think should be a personal choice of the women and the members of her family. I personally would not wear a chadari.
My husband stands on his own two feet; my religion is not a factor. God created and decided for me to be born in a Christian family. It's not every day that a Lebanese marries an Afghan. I think God's hand is also in there.
They say Afghanistan is the worst country for a girl to be born. Hogwash!
When values disappear, the first people to suffer are women because people start losing their respect for women.
