[QUOTE="Ambarsaria, post: 177290, member: 14194"] spnadmin ji thanks for the article. Unfortunately one has to look at the basic makeup of Indian society. There are three or four key elements. [LIST=1] [*][B]Haves and Have Nots[/B] [LIST] [*]If you have power or approach you will be listened to otherwise it is futile [*]Generally the Indian patriarch system is still strongly embedded irrespective of religion, the females have little voice [/LIST] [*][B]Sexual Equality[/B] [LIST] [*]There is little existing under the surface at functional level [*]The article does not reveal anything to an Indian male or female [*]Inequality is well understood and practiced; unless of course it is your own daughter or female relative [*]For other females the system will sandbag you per point 1 above [/LIST] [*][B]Longer Term Role of Underlying Religious Doctrines[/B] [LIST] [*]It is incredibly unfortunate for females in India in such matters [*]The religions of Hinduism and Islam as practiced in India don't have much of a place of justice or equality for females. Lip service yes, but little for the common female Indian in the category of functionally have-nots. [/LIST] [/LIST] The above are issues much deeper and insidious and articles and such would have minimal impact. Let us remember even the less controversial Anna Hazzare movement which so neatly fizzled out. It can be likened to "throwing a dynamite stick in a pool full of Jello. There is temporary wiggling and jiggling, little longer term happens" Of course I wish the most positive for all but I have little faith for the foreseeable future for females so impacted in India. Regards. :banghead: [B]PS:[/B] A story told by my friend few years ago. There is a village in Gujrat where all younger females are offered to the local Hindu priest to have sex and lose their virginity so they are purified. The brain washing and ignorance overall is very deep rooted if not actively encouraged. Watch the Indian TV shows and infomercials where Telemarketing of Gemstones, lucky charms is fleecing the most vulnerable in India out of billions. Such purveyors would be beheaded in Saudi Arabia. The foundation for such antics is the predominant belief system in India which our Guru ji's absolutely and logically rejected as strongly as they could. Unfortunately this is getting lost even in the heartland of Sikhism in Punjab including by Sikhs. [/QUOTE]
