Women are future of South Asia : Realities
The reality is that societies which can't respect, educate, care for women and children have no future. Sadly the grand majority of women are still treated as second class citizens in all over South Asia. The machoistic behaviour of our male 'chauvinistic pigs' is still not changed despite lots of rhetoric and eloquent speeches by many and many feminist movements.
Women are trafficked, sold, raped, disrespected, used and ill-treated.
In my personal experiences of knowing almost all kind of South Asians, that religion or rather the misuse of religion play an important role in the present behaviour.
The rights of women in Islamic societies are trampled and hardly practiced. Books say lot of nice things but men misquote them for their own benefits. Women are considered almost like a shoe. Nowhere in Islam it is written to disrespect women but the truth is the clever people are misusing some symbolic verses literally and women's life in Islamic communities is DEEFINITELY not a peace of cake.
The Hindu societies have lots of problems too and not much different at least in many castes - considered lower.

[Stupid thing is that there is a competition in India to call themselves under lower or Scheduled Castes (special Schedules in constitution) to get extra benefits reserved for weaker sections of the society.]
The quote from Tulsidas - a poet who wrote the popular version of Ramayana -
Dhol ganwar shudra pashu nari
Ye sab taadan ke adhikari...etc.

which roughly means in the whole context of complete verse: "the drum, illiterate, lower caste, animals and women
must be beaten to keep them fit"
is still taken literally by some naive people.

The truth remains that we treat our women very dishonestly.
There is only a minority of families which really give women their deserved freedom and choice of education and an independent life.

Women are still considered a liability in South Asian societies. The governmental or parliamentary laws are never going to work nor they mean anything.

The attitude of people is what needs to be changed!
When shall we stop the hypocrisy and become normal.

I am not saying that we should follow the hardcore feminism of Western type, but there must be more equality and recognition that women are as intelligent and smart as any men.

Whenever the real issues are discussed self-styled leaders and 'high caste' men & women of India Pakistan Bangladesh start making huge noises and succeed in silencing the raising voices.

BUT now - with new acquired consciousness, hyper use of media, TV, Internet and more education - this minority of suckers will be spitted.

You will see in next few decades major movements by women in India Pakistan and Bangladesh - where the tortured and humiliated women are suffering silently and they are going to raise voice against the monsters. They need our support.

Think, how tender and beautiful women, can never raise their voices for fear and spend their entire lives in submission. Is this really growth? Is this development? Is this democractic? Is this justice? Shame on the crooks and traffickers. These monsters will burn in the hells of the worst kind and will never become human in any of their next lives...

There are around 48 million missing females in India of which 1.4 million are girls in the age group of 0-6 years.

We should stop this nonsense NOW.
Let us discuss the various issues in details and focus on solutions which are really practical and workable in our horribly poor and ignorant communities.

Most respectfully yours
PK Kapila

I work with a family, both are from India, going through a horrible divorce that involves two children. I'm trying to understand the cultural norms in India...Is it a norm that men, in this case, a physician from India in the U.S., do not talk to their wife as well as their female daughters? In such case, is also an an acceptable "trait" or moral for the man to have an affair, as he is supporting the wife and daughters?

I'm sickenend by this situtation. How can I help this beautiful, loving, caring, educated mother from India? How do I get her connected with someone who can give her a voice in this country, before her children are taken away from her because she doesn't have the fiscal means to pursue her rights? I say he is respected because he has mainstreamed himself into American society, while secluding his wife from doing so.

How can I get her an advocate for her rights, someone that understands her culture and will stand up to our legal system for her sake and the protection of the her children?

No thats not normal. That man must be evil and bad that does not mean that all men or Indian men are such.

You can refer her to a local chapter of Indian female aid organizations which are usually in larger metropolitan areas.

Please contact us with a message here or post your email which will not be posted here, to advise you or you can write which city or area you are in.

not sure

Most prostitution rings in India and surely in Bangladesh pakistan are actually run by muslims. If you are not aware its your ignorance.

These rascals sell women in name of their evil religion.

daughter 39 years old is going to India to meet a man she met on the internet. Is going to take her daughters ( 15 & 14 ). Is there any chance they will be detained and not be able to get back to The United States? They are leaving on Christmas day, I need answers now.

What do you thin the United States is? Is it some kind of Paradise?

Come on Ms Lou. Your comment is not only naive but very stupid.

India has 1000 million people and it is hundreds of thousands years old civilization and It has more hundred times more compassionate people than whole population of the US.

What do you think India is Aruba or Benin or something. You must be living in a fools paradise with those totally stupid moron local news broadcasts of American media its people seem to have gone nuts.

Tell your daughter to stay home and grow.

they have to be accepted by the society. Society is responsible to make sex workers whence more people need to be educated and accountable. In India so called responsible Ministers and Govt. Officials are involved. Women have to upkeep themselves and be able to spend more time with their husbands. They need to be more realistics.

I would like to know about present situation of women in bangladesh.

"one can't mistreat a woman in USA easily"

Tell that to those who have to put up with it in cases of "domestic violence".
This goes on a fair amoount, but it is not discussed much in the media, because they prefer to make this a minority thing. A case of divide and rule, which india seems to be falling for again.

I feel you are doing a mistake here. You should not seek help from women welfare organisations for this kind of problem. Rather try to educate your family. Convince them that marrying or not marrying is your personal view. As they belong to another generation they may not be able to digest all of your views immediately, however if you spend some time with them and have lenghthy discussions then they will understand and accept their mistake of forcing you for marriage.

If these discussions and convincing doesn't work then you as a next step threaten them that you will use force to change their ideas- and see whether it works,

if it doesn't work then use Police/ legal assistance to teach them a lesson for not understanding you.

Using the women's organisation is certainly a good alternative but I feel you do not need that much assistance for this issue. And also such family members should be taught a lesson by force, not by organisation etc. It is upto you anyway.

You appear to be very sad and helpless in life. You are implying suicidal ideation. The first thing you need to do is to see a Psychiatrist. The earlier the better.

You may have underlying depression which can make a person not interested in marriage. May be why you don't want marriage is due to a different reason, but if it is due to depression then antidepressant drugs can produce enormous pleasure in your life and you may even consider marriage and attempting to taste the marital bliss.

my opinion first to see a psychiatrist then everything else.

I believe that female prostitution is very good business. I my self worked as prostitute & earned good money.This business helped me , my family & relatives.I support joint family of 33 members. I was the only bread earner till last year when my young daughter joined this business.Poor countries has chance to reduce poverty by allowing/licensing this business.

what about male prostitutes??

would it help poor county's economy??


By radhabarwali (202.88.133.242) on Saturday, August 16, 2003 - 05:02 pm:

Yes "IM" The male prostitutes will also help economy but they will earn much less than female pprostitutes.


By IM (210.214.43.132) on Saturday, August 16, 2003 - 08:37 pm:

why so?
