The study not only highlights the media's influence but also accentuates the need for further exploration into coping mechanisms and alternative metrics to comprehensively assess feminism's impact. It advocates for inclusive research methodologies, acknowledging the necessity of diverse sample populations to glean a more holistic understanding of the complex relationship between media portrayal and feminist perspectives among young women in Pakistan.
