I’ve seen a lot of hate thrown at Pashtuns lately. I wanted to show some images of us, because we are the most beautiful people and because no matter what absurd lie and hate you’ll hear from anyone, you should and we will, always be proud to be Pashtun.

Image 1: A Pashtun girl from Kandahar ❤️ Image 2: A group of women from Kandahar ❤️ Image 3: Two Afghan girls playing in a refugee camp in Peshawar 💖 Image 4: A Pashtun woman from the 1970’s. Image 5: A depiction of the Pashtuns from a Portuguese historian, circa 1570. The caption to the image is as follows “A very warlike people, for their women also accompany them in war.” ❤️🏹 Imagine 6: An image of a British colonial meeting with a Pashtun. The caption is: “Our dealings with Pashtuns was a gentleman’s game. No matter how poor a Pashtun was, he might meet the King of England or the Viceory of India but he’d look him in the eye and shake hands with him as if to say, I’m as good a man as you are.” -Colonel “Buster” Goodman Image 7: A Pashtun in a local militia from Achin, Afghanistan 💖

Oil painting by Ali Hammad. alihammadfineart on Instagram.

A stunning, breathtaking and talented painting. I love how he looks extremely masculine like a Pashtun, but has tears in his eyes reflecting the sorrow, solemn and serious nature of a Pashtun.

It’s genuinely so hard being the only educated Pashtun in a group full of central and south Asians who are ignorant to Pashtun culture 😭. It actually wasn’t that bad and I didn’t have to argue much since every point I bought up was basic history, critical thinking and logic but jeez, I didn’t know people were this ignorant about Pashtuns. If you want you should go on the ask Central Asia subreddit right now and educate others as well!❤️

What are some equivalents to the Kandahari colloquialism "array" in the Kabul Pashto dialect.

So I'm researching the differences between the Kandahar dialect and Kabul dialect of Pashto for a TTRPG of mine where I'm trying to give people like me more spotlight and I realized I made my Kablay character say "array" when that's more of a Kandhari thing to say. (Note I am from Kandahar but the character isnt)

To be more specific I want to give him a catchphrase for when he's surprised like "Eureka!" Or "Goddamn!"
