However, considering the patriarchal nature of the Pakistani society which causes males to have more exposure
with the outside world – it could be said that males could have higher death obsession because of their exposure to
the constant terrorism found specifically in Karachi. Statistics show that there have been around 6072 fatalities in
the year 2012 as a result of terrorism (South Asia Terrorism Portal, 2012). In Karachi around 740 people were
killed from the starting of 2012 till June 2012 due to violence in the city (Daily Times, 2012).
