Guest guest Posted August 1, 2003 Report Share Posted August 1, 2003 Shame on such a society. I am not really surprised we still thing whether it was Right or Wrong. I have no doubt im ny mind - it is Wrong.

The example is of a wife's devotion for a husband. Right or wrong, the womans position in that society was not equal to that of a man.2) You would find a lot of such examples in our texts. The other reason for the examples on women could be that most of the authors were men and it could a natural trait to look at the opposite sex for examples.Regards,SwamiWant to chat instantly with your online friends?
