Pashto Girls
Pashtuns are not homogenous and hence they do not have cultures and ethics based on a single religion. They not only belonged to Islam they belonged to other languages too. They have stringent rules especially for women. They tend to be bent towards a single orientation of thoughts and it is not easy to get them back from that orientation. The culture and the religion is been defined based on our ancestors. There might be a grandmother with the afghan origin centuries back then they might have the origin of a pashtun culture. Likewise, there are many interrelationships among other religions and the pashtuns. Such culture has a lot of influence on the women.

Rules for Pashto Girls
Not all pashtun women follow the same rules. The rules that a pashtun women follow differs from region to region. Just like in any developing country, women in rural are illiterate and they do own a job. They depend solely on men for their living and they have rules that are more stringent. They have to follow the rules being designed by the local people. Women in cities and other urban developing area are educated and they are free to pursue higher studies, and own a job sooner. Taliban have directly influenced the life of women in Afghanistan. They have posed very cruel rules that lead to the overall fall down of the Pashto girls and hence they lacked behind in education and economy. The Taliban restricted women to bind by the rules made by man.
