Bangladeshi writer and feminist Tasleema Nasreen have criticized Noble laureate Malala Yousafzai for marrying a Pakistani guy instead of an oxford man at the age of 24.
Recently, after Malala had announced to tie a knot with Asser Malik, Tasleema Nasreen showed her concern over Malala’s decision saying, “Quite shocked to learn Malala married a Pakistani guy. She is only 24, I thought she went to oxford for study and would fall in love with an oxford progressive English man and then think of marrying not before the age of 30.”

Furthermore, Tasleema compared Malala’s old statement as mature enough, in which Malala stated that, she would never marry, never going to have kids, and just going to do her work and will live with her family forever. Tasleema thinks Malala’s decision to get married at the age of 24 is not maturity.

😱 Thankfully, Malala only 24 is smart and knows her worth. She didn’t go to Oxford Uni to find a handsome “progressive” English man. She’s her own person who followed her heart with a man she truly loves and knows will complement her. God bless her and her gorgeous husband!

Quite shocked a woman’s choices regarding what gives her happiness would disturb you. She fell in love with a handsome, progressive Pakistani man. At 24, she is also old enough to decide who she wants to do forever with and for sure does NOT need (y)our approval.

Very narrow minded thinking, specially thinking an Oxford Handsome Guy is solution to life’s problems. Agreed she may not have to rush tha marriage but your mind seems clouded by the colonial servant mindset. I do enjoy your writings in newspaper, but this is disappointing
