So does a woman have the right to marry again if the man is infertile? - Page 3

You know something. When they end up pushing women to have boys especially this creates even more problems because if the female population in India were to go down they start looking for bahu's outside India. The other thing that everyone in India should be taught no not taught the information should be rammed into their brains is that the baby's gender is determined by the male not the female.

I have been in such a situation myself. We didnt have children and even though it was never clearly stated but there were insinuations. In our society too, women tend to keep this fact to themselves to protect the ego of their partners, leaving them vulnerable to taunts and abuse and when the going gets tough, the woman is left to fend for herself bc the man continues to hide this fact to protect his image. A lot of times, this leads to a meltdown of marriages.

Im not really sure whether it is a wise decision or not. I did the same as maithili but was abandoned by the man who felt burdened with complexes. What i fail to understand is why do others have to bother with this. Whether to have children or not or even having the ability to do so is strictly between the couple. When we as a society are so embarrassed by the process (read s*x) and refuse to discuss it, why bother abt the result. Let the couple find their own equation in the relationship. At least it would save a lot of heartache to the woman who is already reeling from the pain of being robbed of a chance at motherhood

Good post! And this question will remain unanswered forever - will Samrat stick by Maithili like this if it really was HER who cannot conceive? Will he not give into his mother's wishes of having a heir? 😕 With Samrat's horrible support at the beginning it doesn't look like he would.

That is why i admire RR. They speak of topics that are concerned taboo -- Male infertility, No-strings-attached relationships, Abusive relationships where male is clearlt shown guilty... I hope they bring forth the issues of adoption (with Maithili-Samrat) and widows remarrying (with Rudra-Paro) and handle the issues nicely.

Honestly the real situation in some parts of this world sickens me!

But in this show - Maitili is the one who is stopping Samrat from telling it, not the other way round. See whatever taunts Mohini might make in front of Maitili -Samrat, mohini might not know but all of those are barbs for Samrat - not Maitili.
Because they know the truth!

Samrat might not have a spine most of the time, but he does love his wife.

But if the situation was reversed i don't know if he would have had the guts or enough love to stick to his wife!

Rapunzale...you may be right. They (the CVs) may have changed the story and made it Maithili's problem now...who knows. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

The original premise of the story was indeed that Samrat could not father a child. This episode aired in early february, between the time Paro comes back to the haveli as Rudras fiancee and the marriage ceremonies start. He tells her in their room that they do not need havans, etc. But he is still against adoption, because his mother will never ket them hear the end of it. Zees interview also shows that Maithili will never let this "failing" of her husband be known.

I think this will be the time that they will show that Samrat is infertile... He should ideally come out and say it, because Mohini needs a severe life lesson, real hard, real fast. I do not think they will change the story. Lets wait and watch.
