    "Whether you are in Karachi, Lahore or New York, women who are successful - be they doctors, lawyers, actresses, who make their own money, are independent and who don`t need any sort of backing - will always be looked on by society at large with some disdain. Our perception of women is that as soon as a girl turns 17, marry her off. People still fear that their daughters should not model lest they lose good proposals. Getting married is considered respectful. Respect does not come by getting married to a respectful person, it largely depends on your personality and what kind of person you are. You can be a doctor or an engineer yet you can have a bad reputation. To hold your integrity is entirely up to you."

    "I got my butt kicked a few times by my sisters. But I grew up so southern that my father would say, `You take it like a man.` And I`d be like, `Oh, what? I`m 5!` But it was interesting. My dad always taught me to treat my girlfriends the way I wanted my sisters to be treated by their boyfriends. They always taught me a really wonderful level of respect that`s not common these days." -Jackson Rathbone (Respect)
