😲 Really? This is the first time am reading this😆 Actually, she always wanted to marry Arjun..When Karna came to her swayamwar, she knew he has it in him to win the competition..So she insulted him about his class and stopped him from participating in it..It was later that Arjun won and married her..When they got back home, these people told Kunti that they have brought something special today..As always, she assumed its some commodity or thing and told them to share it among themselves..thats how the five husbands part came about..Its not like Draupadi willfully married all five of them..

But what kind of an alternative reality is it where women are still commodified, expected to make sacrifices.

Isn't that what our mothers and grandmothers been doing for so long?

The only difference is that you identify the person as a lead and there will be some random praise showered upon the person.

No no..She took the agnipariksha right after she was rescued from Lanka to prove that she is still pure despite spending so much time in that place Uske baad, they went back and the coronation took place..This whole people doubting her thing is supposed to have happened much later..

More than this, i hated her character when she went to Karna to ask him for a favor..How horrible is that?

Yeah its not her wish to marry 5 brothers but its said that God knows her desires, she did ask for a husband with so many qualities, and God knew its not possible to any one person to keep her happy .. So it was god's wish that she had to live with 5 men, as one was not enough for her.. SHe is considered as the most attractive lady with utmost desires of that era..

When Ram got her back from Lanka, the monkeys were whispering amongst themselves. Ram questioned them and they expressed their doubt.

Later, again after returning to Ayodhya people were questioning so he sent her off. This is the beginning of the Luv Kush story. Not originally in Valmiki's Ramayan.
