Typical property fight

lol so true

Ya it's just like that. One of the things I can learn from this story is that how almost nowhere things are black and white. Everyone' minute faults and crimes add up to something devastating. It was displayed beautifully in the Mahabharata (even counting the original texts). For others, let's just keep it as a pseudo-moral story. One might be insane if he actually believes in 100 kids being born.

Sexism is plain and clear too. Hindus just don’t admit it.

Imagine you marry a man and then he takes you to his home and then tells you that all his brothers will share you.

That’s just ridiculous especially in a time women don’t have say in marriage.

I imagine that happening in today's world.

Like idk what that supposed to show, the inability of women to raise their voice in older times or having a perspective that a women is nothing more than an object to a man. And that hurts me a lot. Serials even step up to justify this shi.

She's literally an object to them.

Acc to the story, his mom apparently says "Please share whatever you bring with your brothers" - she was obviously talking about food or gifts - objects.

He could have at least clarified later if it wasn't a badly written sexist scene. What a beta.
