Oh I just wrote the comment hastily, without paying attention to punctuation, so it looks kinda messy.

My parents were born in china, and sometime during the 80s they emigrated to Spain, so while my infancy was one of a spanish person, my entire family is one of a traditional chinese family.

In China, marriages and relationships are still highly valued, and are considered the goal to aim for in life (to eventually marry and settle down with a big family) When in family dinners, I bring up the topic that I really see no benefit in marriage, and am not planning on marry any time soon, the mood lights up as many of my relatives try to convince me that the only way to go is to marry, thus, I bring out the arguments as to why I feel this way, and they dismiss them without even discussing, effectively banning me from speaking.

That is not to say, I didn't make an impact on their way of thinking, granted, I'm not going to change my grandfather's mind or even my uncle's mind, but as long as people like my cousins, still young and not in age to marry, acknowledge and have awareness of why some people are not marrying, I feel like I did something as a Mens Rights Activist

Those links are not really convincing or anything. I just provided them for you to read if you wish. I will say, though, in regard to gender relations, that every time I have done some digging, I find that the reality of a place (or historical period) is not what we are told.

Specifically, I find that most things females suffer from are either exaggerated or fabricated, whereas most things males suffer from are downplayed or simply not discussed.

For example, in some traditional Islamic cultures the man is the definite head of the household (which we hear about). But, HE gets punished if his wife commits a crime. And, HE is strictly expected to financially provide for her at all times. If she works, SHE is not required to share the money she earns. Those things we don´t hear so much about.

I believe the heavily biased public perceptions of gender relations are based on the combination of a multi-trillion dollar gynocentric "industry" (women-tailored governmental agencies, UN agencies, NGOs, academic departments, media sources, foundations, etc..) and the lightspeed global communication network available in our times.

In any case, I cannot claim any great comprehensive knowledge of what is happening in India. I just believe it would be odd if India were the one exception to the very slanted gender news the public is presented with. Take care.
