Oh GB I love u...this is the point...who will decide what women do and what she should not...
I have written my some posts in the FF--His Mystique Mishty---by Madhubala...
I am from Dehra Doon...there is one place called Jaunsaar behind Mussoorie hills...there is a system called Draupadi Pratha...like Draupadi in that village a girl married to eldest brother considered to be the wife of all brother...she lives with all and bear every brother's children...(this is a fact) even a documentry was made and shown in DISCOVERY channel on these people. They believe in this system because they think that their families will be intact in this way...brother's will remain in one house because of same wife and children...and some yrs back if any girl don't want to carry this system she will get killed...I am getting goosebumps when writing this...u can imagine what those girls have went through...
but my point is women are used in every decade and society for men's and society's benefit... here she is used to carry on sexual relation with all brothers to get family and property intact in this same Indian society where having sexual relation with husband's brother is considered PAAP...when woman is forced to have sexual relation with many men by society's approval then no body questions morality... u can take more elaborate example of DEVDAASI pratha where in name of a girl married to GOD is sexually exploited by priests...
I am not saying that women should also do same but if a woman make a choice for her life who are we to question...
