There are so many points I can mention but I think all the stereotypes are same like other male and female living around the world. But I think the major points are almost written by me. The situations of girls are changing in Bangladesh. The urban Bangladeshi girls are wearing western dresses, gets education facilities etc. So I got a bit confused what the “Ideal” stereotypes should be!! But suddenly I remembered that the village women are still maintaining the original stereotypes of Bangladeshi woman.

Very good and very thoughtful. Yes, these concepts are changing, based on the pressures of city life and the economic power that comes with having a job.
