Dowry is a very big problem. No one knows how it started however; the history about it is anti-men in nature. No one knows how accurate it is. But given the societal attitudes, girls mostly marry up; they look men richer, more educated than them. However, all boys do not get equal privileges and only the fortunate ones get the advantage of wooing the good girls. But as only one woman can marry that man, obviously there’s going to be a competition amongst girls to get the ‘best man’. No wonders why girls and their families should not offer dowry to get the ‘best man’. However there are a lot of self-respecting and dignified men who despise the practice and reject dowries out rightly. And the society, unable to accept a man’s rejection ridicules the man, saying, “He must be having some vice, so he is not accepting dowry.” And I do not need to say anything if a man accepts a dowry and his wife is not happy with him. The dowry case is always there wherein the girl will always be considered the ‘victim’ even if she and her parents were the perpetrators of dowry exchange. And the ‘misuse of dowry laws’ not being uncommon, even if he does not demand/accept dowry, a false case is also lying ahead of him. So for men dowry is like, “Damn if they, Damn if they don’t”. Hence, LIBERATE MEN FROM DOWRY. To create link towards this article on your website, copy and paste the text below in your page. Preview : Powered by QuoteThis © 2008

Sneak a Peek
| The Wheel Turns |
Twenty years ago, the cricket stars were the GENTLEMEN, who used to play seasonal cricket and did have alternative careers. Today we see cricket as an emerging alternative career option with what all these young cricketers becoming role models for today’s youth. They participate in brandishing products, sporting fashionable looks, attractive hairdos, flaunting latest gizmos and define themselves as a perfect style icon apart from being aggressive at the field. What with the team comprising of youngsters, more and more young blood is being preferred vis-à-vis experience. Earlier we had all the politicians who were some sixty years of age and had very little exposure to the actual progress going on in the world and the country was run on traditional policies resulting in more consumption than production in the economy as a whole. But now we have the “Lead India” movement initiated by the Times Of India which is inviting young aspiring India not only to be a part of the political mainstream but also to be a part of socially relevant projects.
