In no country, can women have the same rights as men, because of their physiological and psychological differences, it is not possible to have equality in respect of all the rights. What is important is that they need to be protected from exploitation and freedom of choice, in matters of eduction, marriage, property rights. A society that best respects the women is the best society.

I don't know...but it leads to dowry deaths, to the tune of 10 million girl babies killed because they are girls. More than everyone killed during the holocaust

Because the men dominate the women and the women let them. Over time, it's gotten out of hand. Before, the women felt good to let the man be in control, but many men abuse it and suppress the women. In the future, it may back fire like in America where many women become as corrupt as the men by choosing to live a life without men.

Boy, come down to the reality women in India are treated equally, there is a consideration always given to our ladies here. We have ladies quota for ladies but no gents quota. Guys in India compete with Girls just in General quota. Dont you see the difference what I talk about.

Who said? It's wrong. Women in India acquires more rights than men. All Indian Acts either directly or indirectly provides more rights to women when compared to that of men. See the Hindu/Muslim/Special Marriage Act, Dowry Prohibition Act, Domestic Violence Act, Indian Penal Code, Civil Procedure Code, Evidence Act, Criminal Procedure Code, etc,. The Indian Constitution itself ensures more rights and privileges to women and children of India. The problem is, our society projects women as subordinate to men.
