ISLAMABAD: This is with reference to Khaled Ahmed’s article of October 5 titled “A strange word on wedding cards”. Yes, ‘na-kat-khuda’ is yet another manifestation of our regressive attitudes towards women. I have also noticed recently that the name of the bride is no longer mentioned on many wedding cards. Instead, she is referred to as ‘D/O’ as in ‘daughter of’. She might as well be referred to as ‘C/O’, or ‘cattle of’.
