I understand, I have lived in India for sometime and I can safely say there are multiple dimensions to the nation.
I used to agrue with almost everything when I was a teen..especially the the cultural and society biases..I still often do..but I have become slightly cynical aswell to know that not everything can be unbiased and perfectCynicism is my protective shield also. I remember this Afghan woman saying the only way to change tradition is follow abide by it. Subtle critique is often the safer route when compared to straight up rebellion.
