Regarding masking: I took those images from their Facebook groups without their permission. Masking was purely my decision in case Reddit would consider it as a violation of their policies regarding sharing personal information. I don't think they really care and some have appeared in TV as well. And unlike the West, Indian MRAs were not facing much opposition from feminists back then (not sure of now).

Yeah, its a law as far as I know unless they changed it recently. Not joking. From BBC: Also, as leading women's right's lawyer Flavia Agnes points out, a third of rape cases in India are filed by parents against boys with whom their daughters have eloped. Some stories of similar nature that I came across: Woman files rape case on NRI boss after ‘false marriage promise’, blackmail (Feb 23, 2013) Woman says ‘raped’ for 8 years by man she lived with (Jan 04, 2013) Fake rape, kidnapping cases have …

I am from India. The dowry related laws are one among the top 3 laws Indian Mens Rights NGOs are campaigning against. While, in theory, the law sounds good to discourage the practice of dowry deaths, statistics and media reports seem to indicate otherwise. I am no expert in this, and my opinion on this will be heavily biased in favor of men, so take my words with a grain of salt. Dowry deaths increased from 6,851 in 2001 to 8,233 in 2012.

From India. The ones I can think of now: The new divorce laws favour women heavily. Women can reject the husband's claim for divorce citing financial hardships. She can claim half of husband's property as well as ancestral property. Husband cannot claim anything. Men cannot be raped under Indian laws. Men get 7 years punishment for adultery, women nothing. Anti dowry law - puts men in jail automatically if wife commits suicide withing 7 years of marriage. Any member of husbands family can be put…

In India, one got four years last week, and may get another seven years for abetment to suicide. Probably because the guy had killed himself. http://m.indianexpress.com/news/false-rape-charge-lands-woman-in-prison-for-4-years/1163643/

I agree. You are right in that there is lot of victim blaming in some parts of India. Keep in mind that victim blaming is not done by men alone, even women does that. But that is only one side of the coin. The reason I posted the above fake rape links was to show that women wouldn't have faked rape if the mentality of the entire society of 1 billion+ people was the way media likes to portray. India has some 30000 rapes reported in a year. I would be really happy to see those numbers rise. Until …

What's your opinion on this? Also, as leading women's right's lawyer Flavia Agnes points out, a third of rape cases in India are filed by parents against boys with whom their daughters have eloped. Source False cases are the reasons behind labelling of Delhi as 'rape capital'; a court in Delhi has held while acquitting a 75-year-old man of the charge of sexually assaulting his maid after the woman turned hostile. The court said after the December 16 gang-rape of a 23-year-old girl in a moving bu…

Keep in mind that most of the marriages are arranged, which means both parties are more or less in identical financial condition at the time of marriage. While talking about this new law, law minister Kapil Sibal said there was an urgent need to "protect women rights more" because the Indian society was still quite patriarchal. "So let's be clear. This historic piece of legislation is a message that MPs are on the side of women in our patriarchal society. Even across the world, women constitute …

When I started that sub-reddit, even I wasn't sure I will have any content to post there. But it looks like I got enough even though I spent only 1 hour every week in mens rights groups. Please the read the posts there, and tell me if I am making a mistake.

I fully agree that we need such laws in India. But unfortunately, these laws get abused a lot. Take the example of dowry law. The only thing it has become useful is in making the lives of lot of men miserable. Dowry is still wide spread. And regarding your first line, if the woman come forward, no rapist escapes. Please see the posts I made in /r/MensRightsIndia. I would like to know if you changed your mind about Indians after that.

I am not quite sure whether you are trolling. But I can explain why some things are like that. "Dress modestly, don't wear western clothes": In India, you won't see men or women walking around in revealing clothes. This is particularly true in the case of women. You simply cannot expect to go into a country and practice your culture there, can you? "Never smile at men, travel with men, loudly say no if men flirt.": There are a good number of idiots out there who think western women are open to c…

Don't know if you are an MRM, but reading your points make me feel like I live in a country where women are treated as slaves. Its not that bad as you make it out to be. Acid attacks are not that common as far as I know. This article says "there were 153 attacks reported in the media from 1999 to 2010." http://communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/what-world/2012/dec/1/indian-woman-survives-acid-attack-become-national-/ Note: I am in no way supporting any form of violence against any huma…

Let me tell you this-our culture doesn't tolerate attack on women. I agree that the status of women are lower compared to that of men, but believe me, attack on women are never tolerated. Couple of years back, some guys misbehaved with a girl in a public bus 99% of whom all college students. Next day, the girl's brother and his friends stopped the bus, and beat up all the guys in that bus. No questions asked.

Can you point out any country where so many people (not just women) came out and protested against a rape? That should tell you about the Indian mentality...

And India also has matrilineality. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrilineality#India I agree that India has patriarchy, a system which expects men to be body guards, atm machines and coolies by default. Two men stood up against sexual harassment, got their guts spilled out and died. Somebody wanted to make that as a campaign against sexual harassment! Also, the same patriarchal system gives court the power to order men to get a job and pay alimony. And don't forget the fact that men are not even…

There are people who think that women as well as men who wear western outfits are against the traditional culture of that particular community (note that I am not using the word India, because you travel 500 miles and it is a totally different culture). Even in big cities like Bangalore, if my friend told me the truth, one of his guy friends were stopped by the moral police for walking around in bermudas. (Note that when I say moral police, I am talking about a group of individuals who think the…

If you just start blaming men, to me, it becomes a 'them vs us'. It becomes 'their' problem, than a problem of our society. When I saw this news, I had tears in my eyes, and I stopped working. Then one by one, I started seeing articles popping up blaming Indian men. So, why should I care?

I have to strongly disagree with you on this. More than men, its the traditional women who object to these modern western fashion styles. Most of the Indian men are extremely protective of the women. There was one public bus, almost 90-95% of the passengers were college students. Some guys misbehaved with one of the girls. Next day, her brother and his friends stopped the bus, and hit all the guys in the bus. Nobody said anything.

Nobody in India, except true Muslims wear hijab. In fact, one of the common dress in India is saree. Saree is more revealing than jeans and t-shirt (which is what the traditional people object to). Even my dad doesn't like me wearing jeans. By the way, I recommend you guys to check out this link (would say slightly NSFW): http://pazhayathu.blogspot.com/2009/11/kerala-women-topless-custom-in-19th.html Summary: Till a century ago, it was a crime to cover your breasts :)

Indian here. I don't really think rapes are carried out based on what women wear. I fully agree that women who wear so called western clothes are looked upon with disgust by some, and this includes lot of women as well. I remember reading just 2-3 days back some article that close to 90% of those rapes are committed by members close to the family. But I fully agree with your second para.

Its probably a transliteration confusion (I hope I got the words correct :)). What he means by that is this - men do not have anywhere to call for their issues. Probably, in his language, dialing a phone and ringing a phone are similar. (India has some 18+ languages, so even I am not sure!)
