thank god i was born and raised in Canada, where u don't have to put up with backward thinking like my husband is my god and he can rape and beat me up when he wants. There is no greater sin in this world then raping or beating up a person, be it man or woman. Just because your married to someone,doesn't mean anything,u don't have to have sex until your ready, anything else is rape, plain and simple, A woman has a right to say no,after all, its her body and its a basic human right. Women r not just made to please their husbands. i cant believe people in this forum r actually justifying rape and abuse and they r women themselves. Its disgusting!! Put yourself in prats shoes, how how u feel if it happened to u,would u still think its right?Rape and attempt r one in the same. Rape is more about power then about sex, the person committing the rape has the power and can do anything they want,it has a lot to do with physical power,which is y most rapes r committed by men,they want the other person to feel helpless and thats hows pratigya was feeling.

Look it is not the point that we r in US or UK or Canada and hence lucky to escape this

</div>

I lived In India too , I experienced life in rural areas too , saw feudal landlord households , cities , today I am in progressive USA...........

Neither it is about women r always blamed .

I constantly saw a man who was grossly misunderstood by a woman . He misunderstood her silence for acceptance and she succeeded in giving him wrong signals . There was a colossal misunderstanding especially due to the pink sari episode . He inferred her mute fear as fear of society , NOT HIM and decided to aggressively make her his bride . He had no idea of the horror and fear another stalker had unleashed due to his manipulation ......Angad .

<div>Krishna suffered a lot in this marraige . In fact he suffered the most , and for what ?For loving her like crazy . He got insulted in a way no man shud ..........and he bore it all just so she shud grace him with some love at least . Pratigya did not do good with him . He is the real victim and I firmly stand by this . The emotional torture she put him through is so dangerous that any other man wud have committed suicide or raped or killed his wife . This horrible Pratigya that she did ........of destroying him thru HATE can never be applauded by me at least . He was so excited about the marraige and was bending backwards and forward to please her . His household may be chauvinistic but he really loved her and he had no intentions of treating her any less than a queen . It was always Pratigyaji wont do the housework , Pratigyaji needfs to be looked after , Go ask what Pratigyaji wants , I will change all the furniture for Pratigyaji .......She was unfortunately in no frame of mind to value that love and crushed it under her revengeful heel .If anyone needs a sabak it is this character , not him . I dont expect anyone to agree with my opinion ................I stand by it firmly .

yes the discussions here have reached a stage where we are debating the meaning of sex. ok i do admit in an arranged marriage couple do consummate the marriage before they are in love. yes BUT woman say yes to it on first night or whenever and it happens by both their consent. that is the difference here krishna does not have pratigya consent. i am not sure what the exact wording of vows are that you take around the holy fire but i don't think it gives the man authority over a woman's body. i believe in this as strongly as anything in my life, a man must not touch a woman if she doesn't want to EVEN IF HE IS HER HUSBAND. it is any woman basic right.
