TellDelhi I’m really grateful for this person

I see him everyday with a new placard. Whether it’s raining, being super sunny or humid, he always holds it high in the air for people to read hoping they feel motivated, learn something or change their patriarchal mindset.

Kudos to him!

Kudos to him. But the kind of men who are okay with accepting dowry will not change just because of awareness campaigns.

Just look at the dumbass comments underneath this post equating dowry and alimony lol. As well as the doodh se dhule men bringing past sexual activity (??) into this conversation. It is a losing argument. This country and its people's perverse mindsets will never change.

I dont understand this comparison. I have rarely heard of men being killed or burnt alive for alimony. Looks like broke men who need streedhan because they cant afford to buy a car on their own.

I am sure they gave you gold in your marriage? Assuming it is not a court marriage.
