dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the graffiti produced by male and female students attending colleges in Quetta, Balochistan, Pakistan. The aim of this dissertation was to examine the use of linguistic features in graffiti created by individuals of both genders. The study adapted Lakoff (1975) linguistic features to analyse the language used by both genders in their writings. The aim was to analyse the use of language by males and females in Balochistan and to ascertain whether the language in graffiti was shaped by gender stereotypes or mirrored the socio-cultural context of Balochistan and Pakistan.
