Destiny Posted January 16 Author Report Share Posted January 16 Originally posted by phatman [hint] not all of us have tv right now [/hint] lol sorryTheyre talking about dowry burnings in India.The women get married, the husbands ask for the dowry, if its not good enough or they want more and they dont get it, they burn their wives. Most of the women die and if they manage to live, theyre considered a burden to their family because the husbands dont want them, they go back to their family and they can't marry or work again...the town theyre in right now...1200 women are burned a year in dowry burnings and the women say that they were burned by an oven explosion because theyre scared of what the husbands would do to the family. I'm so disgusted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
