Well...of course what happened with Draupadi should've never happened.
But then there's so many things in Mahabharat which should've never happened and if judged by today's pretext can be called grave adharma .
Which dharma allowed a great warriors like Bhina and Arjuna to stand as a mute spectators when their beloved wife was getting insulted . Yudhisthis who is considered most dharmik man of that era didn't think twice before staking their common wife like she's a commodity. So, it was all according to dharma ?

It was so unfortunate that Draupadi had not 1 but 5 husbands, 5 people whose children's mother she was and NOT one of them was there for her in that fateful day as their hands were tied by their 'dharma' . It must make me think that the idea of right and wrong must've been very different at that time.
May be we can not simply judge their actions by our 21st century mindset.😔

The thing is, Draupadi NEVER criticised her husbands even once after this.

Mishti.. that is what the CVs are trying to do and see the result.. Brain Roast

we discussed a lot in a previous thread on Yudishtra.. I wish to repeat my understanding..

A King was nothing less than God.. Everything was considered his property and he can stake them or do whatever..

If a King can risk the lives of his warriors, brothers, sons & grandsons in a war to secure his throne (or his allies throne), why cant he stake them? he is also risking the future of their wives isn't it? do we question that? what right he has on their lives?

he staked horses and elephants.. are they not lives?

Servants both male and female, all his citizens male and female except Brahmins.. no one seems to question.. why??

then his brothers - not all question them..

then their wife - we have so many questions and speeches about Woman rights.. but what about Human Rights? am sorry this only seems to me like we are trying to show off as feminists and nothing else..

if at all Yudishtra won that stake and fortunately won back everything that he lost, we wont be taking anything about commodification of a woman.. instead would be praising her for being their lucky charm..

I cant believe that people still use "andhe ka beta andha" as an excuse to justify it.
BREAKING NEWS: IT DID NOT HAPPEN!
It is as fictional as draupadis "bhoot pichaas" and duryodhns "sutputra" comment.

People trip, and people laugh.Women getting physically and mentally abused? People DO NOT laugh.only mosnsters do.

Even if she had said that andha valla dialogue [which she did not offcourse] then also VH cannot be justified
