Online dating takes off in Pakistan

Friday 14 August 2009


Online dating is revolutionizing the social scene in Pakistan. Constrained by a lack of social opportunities, young people in Pakistan are resorting to the Internet as the communication medium of choice. Internet access in Pakistan is steadily growing at one of the fastest rates in Asia. Over 30 million Pakistanis are connected to the Internet, and finding love is becoming easier for the erstwhile constrained South Asian people. Females are especially constrained by restrictive cultural practices, with some Pakistani girls in the rural areas having severe mobility issues.

However, online communication is set to change all that. Dating in Pakistna has taken a new turn whereby people choose to arrange dates online, proceeding to telephone or VOIP conversations before finally arranging a romantic encounter. This also allows for increased freedom for Pakistani females, who can now interact with men with increased safety, privacy and ease.
