Are you saying that it's somehow self-evident that Pakistan is not the safest place for solo female travelers? Have you looked at the facts?

- wowokay 4y agoThat’s a joke right?
- loloquwowndueo 4y agoYep : https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-dangerous-countries https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-dang... Pakistan ranks 17th most dangerous, definitely doesn’t sound like the safest.
- benj111 4y agoYes it is self evident. And perhaps more importantly, generally assumed, so if you want to change people's mind, it up to you to provide evidence to the contrary.
- MereInterest 4y agoSomething is "self-evident" if it requires no external information to make a claim. (e.g. "All humans are entitled to equal protection under the law.") That isn't the case here. Rather, that the body of prior shared external knowledge is sufficient that a statement can be taken as a given without needing to justify it within the context of the conversation. (e.g. "Rain falls from the sky.") In this case, Pakistan being an unsafe place for women (second only to Afghanistan as the worst gender gap) is sufficiently well-documented that the statement doesn't require further litigation.
