Someone posted this yesterday

Why India have less divorces issue or womanizer or bimagy issue..
#1 factors... is they are sticking to their culture and belief... Indian woman have no right to ask indian man...not like Filipino wife that they are in control of everything... 2, India had strong belief in Woman must follow their man whatever it is..even indian man is cheating them... believe or not...All man are born to be polygamous..it is an animal instict.. 3 reason, indian woman give duri.. to indian man which for them they have no choice but that man.. their life is not fun... boring.. 4th lack of exposure to western side which if they open their culture to others... plus no law about divorce

My reply

First learn few things and then talk about the western culture

1. When ever you mention a name of a country it should start with a Capital letter. ex: India not india

2. What do you mean by duri???
It is dowry
3. They don't need exposure to western culture as they are ok with one husband.

4. Who told you that there is no law about Divorce???????

dont u guys particularly i2kreativ & Murali think that Indian culture is not the problem of our wromen folks. Men are the basic problem in keeping them behind whether in public forum or in private in our own homes.

A very very innocent & simple example:

How can we justify our deeds of a simple home chore of we men considering it as below our dignity to enter into the kitchen and cooking. If at all we do cook never ever will we wash utensils. I agree 0.00000000001% of us would do so but that too only & only when ur wife is around and not in public.

PARTY SITUATION

Whenever we call friends or relatives to our palce, have u ever considered why females are most of the times in a seperate room chatting / cooking and/or taking care of our kids.

We are sick male members of our country. Stop blaming west and its culture which has entered our bedrooms and sort of given some thoughts to our better half. Yes, better half. U might consider me as a feminist, so be it and I would keep being one.

Again you have hit the nail on the head. I once worked with a lady from Sri lanka.. she was having a really hard time in her marriage, but could not bring herself to let go because of the family and also the shame it might bring. Ofcourse, men know this and use it to their advantage.

You are right Britexpat...But since I am myself from India I can see and feel the change actually. I think the media exposure gets some credits too. The media in India is so powerful nowadays that it isn't any easier for anybody to commit a crime and walk away with it. Still there are other forces like our own politics and politicians, sometimes pose the major hurdle in women progress.

But I am optimistic for the change in woman status .....without breaking the families.... at the same time.

It is common that in most cases, people are murdered by someone they know or are related to.

Not trying to justify things, but in the case of the Armed Forces, circumstances such as stresses of work and mental issues could be the major cause.

Spousal battering is a major issue all over the world, but you will agree that in developing nations it is more so because of the lack of education, the stigma related to a woman walking out of a relationship and also teh lack of support structures available.

Well, I think I have posted some wrong link. Let me find out the correct one about USA where it is said that people from armed forces are mostly involved in domestic violence.

The global figure is such a haunting isn't it?

I'll be damned!!...."50% of murdered women are killed by current or former partners"

But Shreeya wht the report says in teh beginning is "...the whole story of all the human rights abuses committed across the world in 2006." It doesnt say those are USA statistics, or did i miss something?

Also the report says, "153 countries featured in Amnesty International's Report 2007"

So couldnt it be that this is a global figure? Ofcourse even then its SHOCKING!!

These are all age old generalizations about India, Indian women, Indian culture, Indian everything...And these generalizations are there because it is easy to think about this crap..no much pain to brain.

On the other hand Amnesty International says that Western women get beaten by their partners too.

http://www.amnestyusa.org/document.php?id=ENGPOL100072007&lang=e

This report is about USA particularly and the interesting fact is

"Domestic Violence

1 in 3 women is subjected to intimate partner abuse during her lifetime".

50% of murdered women are killed by current or former partners

This is just to show that it happens the same everywhere when it comes to a woman.....

Surely it's changing and it must change. And the women themselves are the major power behind this change even in India.

Yeah...lesser divorces doesnt ncessarily show a stronger/fairer society.

crazynoddy: wht exactly do u mean "keep ur wife or sister or family.... in ur control." if being faithful depends on the amount of ctrl exerted, is the faithfulness worth it??

Divorce has today become the easiest solution for people having problems in marital life. Small issues, slightest arguments and married couples are ready to go their separate ways. There is an increasing number of divorce cases in India as well as in the world.

Infidelity has been and will continue to be one of the most common reasons for divorce, be it India or any other country. Due to the newly found financial independence Indian females are not ready to adjust with their partners and end up in divorce.

as per Indian law the ground for divorce should be anyone the following

Adultery

Desertion

Cruelty

Impotency

Chronic Disease/STD

Everyone has the right to live a happy life, I personally think there is no need to take any S**** if they have a choice.

Divorces will always be less in countries that treat women like a commodity to be bought, sold and owned, rather then like real people with thoughts, feelings and desires.

well i really dont know who commented about indian women so blindly n so proudly. listen my friend u need to open up your eyes at the earliest.

now our indian women are beyoned our reach and this is mainly due to the influence of media, clubs, MNCs, etc etc. above all money talks when women get handfull of money all of a sudden then dont know what to do or how to spend.

our women are ready to pay anything to reach or to adopt the western 'living style'.

our culture has been diluted n deteriorating.

the latest survey in mumbai india says for every three marriage registration two divorse cases are filing. its dat fast now. so there is no point saying that divorse rates are less in india. that zamana was earlier now every one wanna be poised and self dependent in front of our useless society.

we can not bring any specefic nationality to blame it does not suit our culture and heritage. why only philipinas why not others?

we must respect every culture religion race colour tradition etc etc instead of blaming or criticising when you can not find your answer.

loadsa things to discuss

believe me we can not close this chapter just like that.

my suggestion to this regard will be keep ur wife or sister or family.... in ur control. being sincere n faithful depends upon person to person and that concept is fading out from our culture i believe.

once you leave ur life loose.... then everything will be KHALLLLAAAAAS

gotta go!!!! :) to

Irrysa:Thanx for the clarification....ofcourse its bigamy, silly me!

I sympathise with ur frnd. I guess having a kid is more of a compulsion for a woman( or evn a man) to stay in an unhappy relationship.

Culture and bringing shame to family is not jus ther in india...there are lots of cultures that look down upon divorce(which btw, doesnt make sense to me). Also I know women hu hav been bold enough to throw the "culture/shame to family" argument away n take charge of their lives. ultimately its a personal thing.

Even in western societies there are women hu take crap n stay in the relationship(may b the numbers r less, i donno). Wht these women need to understand is "If u keep doing wht u r doing, u'll keep gettin wht u r getting!!"(oops was that a bit too harsh?)

Irrysa just becaue its the case with ur friend doesnt mean that the turn of the table will take a long time. Seriously the picture u have of Indian women is slightly outdated.

Murli please dont talk nonsense- if ur trying to say something be clear and support it with facts. You're comparing rural or Indian women from villages(just becasue they are educated and have a degree does not make them modern- it has to do with the society they live in) to modern western women. Lets compare Modern Independant Indian women to Modern Western women okay?

I donno much about western women apart from what i've seen in movies which i'm sure is not the right picture;)

So I will talk about Modern Indian women coz i am one of them or at least I think so. The word is not "Obey"- its mutual "Respect". My husband respects me and my decisions as much as I respect him and his decisions. There is no domestic violence or wife beating(although there is a bit of husband beating:) or bride burning for dowry in my house. In India most women have marry guys who are older to them at least by 3-4 years. In general in Indian society there is a respect for elders factor which may not be prevalent in other societies. Children stay with their parents till they get married, take care of parents in their old age etc. maybe thats why the women respect their (elder)husbands a little more. But I really feel respect is the way to go.

Murali: abt boyfrnds thing being exclusive for western culture, I dont agree. was talking to a frnd of mine who works in counselling (In India)for women who r in troublesome relationships. She was telling me that she herself was astonished at the kinds of stories that u get to hear especially in cities. Infidelity is much more common than a lot of us fool ourselves into believing.

Wudnt blame men, women or any culture for it though. Its just a personal choice made by an individual due to circumstances that came in to their life.

winn...it was meant to be bigamy.

the turn of the table would take very long time for them. i personally have a wonderful friend. she is Indian, very well educated, full of energy, has a gr8 job. she has a baby and husband that has absolutely nothing in common with her. they live kinda separete lives. when i asked her why did she got married to him and why would she do something about it, while she is still young, she said that it is their culture and she doesn't want to bring shame to her family.

so, in other words, she will stay like this.

when i asked, what will she do if her husband would find someone else? she said "i won't say or do anything"

when i asked "what if one of these days u will find someone who'd be ur true love? she said "nothing will happen either"

very very different culture from mine. but i respect it, even though i don't agree.

Irrysa:quite some points there. But I do foresee a better future for Indian women coz the tables r really turning n quite fast too!

What’s the point in adjusting if they cant get along? Why should they suffer life long if both parties are not happy in the marriage? It’s stupid to be in the marriage just for the sake of it. Indian women should wake up I guess modern women are more financially independent and they don’t tolerate SH** from her husband for his family for whatever reason.

Murali, it won't be sorted out and u know it and we all do. whoever will put their 2cents in it, it will be their private subjective opinion, nothing else.

not trying to offend anybody here,

and my 2 cents are, that u have a different culture and society doesn't look good at divorced women, as if they were 2nd hand goods, no matter if they r educated, beautiful and so on.

another thing, in my opinion, is the fact that ur women r less independent in life. it is all about the family. if a lady doesn't have a satisfying education/job/careere, she is more likely to stay in a relationship that she feels very unhappy in. simply because of the fact that she depends on her husband/family.

but there r plenty of other factors involved here...
