5:43Now PlayingParveen Bibi was one of the first women to drive a rickshaw in Lahore. Many men react with hostility, but she says it's her business how she supports her family. The sight of Parveen Bibi behind the wheel surprises most men. Many are downright hostile. Pakistan is a patriarchal society and a lot of males think a woman's place is in the home.
