Dowry ...Agreed and i know what u r talking about... Dowry in one form is also known as dowry by bequest where the father bequests the part of inheritance to the daughter marriage but legally the control of such inheritance should remain with the daughters which never happens because the grooms family either takes the inheritance in their name or kill the bride to take it.. sad right :(<br /><br />in fact only the girl has the legal right on any dowry not the guy but sadly people don't know this fact. girls don't know this fact<br /><br />we need man=women notion in the society like you saidGenie Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02335340634727986914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139825132139569335.post-38757256019962369042013-03-31T07:10:13.551-07:002013-03-31T07:10:13.551-07:00Agreed and like I said the solution lied in the ha...Agreed and like I said the solution lied in the hands of men to develop a spine and work towards what they want... its in many sense about right vs. easy.. its sad that most people go for easy.. like you said lazy jackass :(..<br /><br />glad to know someone think like me.. I am a strict no no against dowry. i was talking with my father one day and said then whenever I get married I want nothing from the bride's family except the bride :) and he agreed.. It made me very happyGenie Craftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02335340634727986914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139825132139569335.post-43746869633234056292013-03-31T05:42:39.169-07:002013-03-31T05:42:39.169-07:00I wholeheartedly agree with you PoV. But there is ...I wholeheartedly agree with you PoV. But there is also another big issue in this sort of thing. Inheritance. Even today, people think of giving their earnings to their sons alone. For them the daughters don't qualify for inheritance. If you look at stats, you will see that all that the daughter gets is dowry whereas the sons of the family get a royal share of the property. All these are because of the entrenched patriarchy in our society. We must tone it down and make the notion of "woman=man" acceptable and universal.Siva Shankarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11920779118471220087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139825132139569335.post-31366674489167474682013-03-31T05:24:06.413-07:002013-03-31T05:24:06.413-07:00I'm glad that you have posted this up! This is...I'm glad that you have posted this up! This is not just about dowry! Many lazy men don't move their ass to provide food at home as they would want to marry an educated, working girl and make her the breadwinner of the family! My ex-boyfriend was someone who has that mentality and it's sad to see these jackasses wanting to have an easy life!<br /><br />Thanks for posting!!
