This article highlights historical background of Pakistani education system with special reference to gender relations and society. It further discusses the geographical location, population, demography and language of the country to understand the dynamics of masculinity and femininity in the province. The study outlines ethnic and religious dimensions of the people influencing the education system, with focus on Khyber Pukhtunkhwa2 . Moreover, an analysis of some critical gender issues, regarding women status in the country is attempted. The study concludes that poverty, economic dependency, lack of social security system and a poor education infrastructure are some of the issues of masculinity and femininity in Pakistan. Gender empowerment is limited to slogans, as women access to education and her rights of Islamic inheritance and Haq Mehr (bride money) are altered by cultural discourses.
