I'll disagree with u on this one, raza.
I have seen GUYS ratt'ofy whole IASes and Company Law alongwith their para and section numbers. At the same time, i also have some brilliant female engineers and IT professionals (subjects which certainly cannot be passed with 'rattafication') among my acquaintences. So your points are not much valid. Nowadays, this arguement of rattafication sounds pretty lame. Our women are excelling in all academic fields, including fields which were once thought to be the domain of men.
One of the actual reasons which keeps womenfolk from this profession is the amount of time required to complete this qualification. I mean if one enters this profession around the age of 19, it takes somewhere around 6 years (minimum) to complete articleship and get qualified. In our society, families start to look for rishtas for their daughters when they reach somewhere around 23. Hence this apparent lack of females.
Although nowadays this trend has started to change, and mashallah women have also started to come in this profession in throngs, especially since the advent of ACCA, as it takes significantly smaller period of time.
