As is America, but India, while the world's most populous democracy, has been governed by a Hindu supremacist (like a white supremacist, but brown and religious) who's tried to squelch its Muslim minority. Overtly religious nations are ALWAYS patriarchal, as many faiths argue that men are the Deity-ordained leaders and faithful women must be subordinate to men.

Middle East oppressed Christians. The media never show the world that.

"Christians" stole people and caish from Africa, for which America has yet to apologize.

My female Indian colleague’s family did not pay dowry to her husband’s family, because young single women are getting scarce and he was looking for a wife for a long time. So, there are progressive developments in India, at least in the cities.

[HelpfulWoman]

yes, its easy to see how backwards a country it is too

[CalmUntilAbused]

Even if it's true, what is supposed to be the problem?

[Asker]

Cause they don't treat & respect women well. Treat like a slave & kept like a maid. Domestic Violence & so on. That's why got Passport Sis among Indian Women.

America is a patriarchy too. We're just better at hiding it.

[Asker]

America is different. India got dowry whereby the Bride must pay the Groom.

[Asker]

Most of them don't respect & treat women well.

I had to Google it 'cuz i forgot which one means male dominated and vice versa. But yeah, I think that's pretty common knowledge.

It is gradually getting better. Good. India will supplant China as a superpower before 2100.

[ProbablyClueless]

Oh yes, very much so. I am more familiar with that fact than most Americans.

Almost all religions are patriarchal (I think Wicca is one of the rare exceptions).

[Asker]

It has nothing to do with religion. It's the guys they think they are KINGS & women are inferior (3rd class citizens)

[Asker]

Most of them don't respect & treat women well.
