Parents constantly say "Do all this after you get married", like ur allowed to have a life only after marriage. Then the very next day they& #39;ll sarcastically say the opposite like, "Ya, ya, enjoy all this now only. Your in-laws& #39; house won& #39;t be like this".
It& #39;s like an Indian woman& #39;s life is split into two stages: Before Marriage and After Marriage. Either way, both stages are a jail sentence. Before marriage your parents wanna control you. After marriage your husband& #39;s parents wanna control you. LET US LIVE, FFS.
It& #39;s like this: ANY thing we do in life is measured w how it& #39;ll affect The Marriage. For instance: That sarcastic comment above is what I got for, get this, ORDERING FROM MCDONALD& #39;S. How did she manage to connect me ordering food to... marriage?! One that& #39;s IN THE DISTANT FUTURE?
Wanna travel? Wear make up? Stay out late? Wear clothes of your own choice? Hang out with friends? ORDER FOOD?

WHY? Aren& #39;t ALL of those a part of... living? Why does a woman need to be tied to a man JUST TO LIVE? First to the father, then to the husband.
??!
And after you& #39;re married, do you at least get to do any of this? LMAO NOPE. Your mother-in-law will watch you like a hawk. Making sure that you& #39;re the perfectly obedient little servant that your parents promised them you& #39;d be. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="â˜ș" title="LĂ€chelndes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: LĂ€chelndes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏" title="Folded hands" aria-label="Emoji: Folded hands">
Come home late, even if it& #39;s from work? That& #39;s a strike against you. Order food? WHAT? With your husband& #39;s hard-earned money?! Strike. Sleeveless kurti? Shameless! Strike. Hanging out w friends? Lol what& #39;s that? Who& #39;ll look after the house? Strike. And travel? LMAO cute. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đŸ€­" title="Gesicht mit Hand ĂŒber dem Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Hand ĂŒber dem Mund">
Fun fact: The marriage vows in my religious denomination requires both parties to make certain promises about this "equal" partnership. Man promises to & #39;take care& #39; of his wife. Woman promises to... & #39;obey& #39;.... her husband.

Equal. Partnership. My big fat ASS.
Often you& #39;ll come across married couples fighting. Both get angry. Both yell. But you& #39;ll only hear one of them yell, "Why can& #39;t you just OBEY me!"
No matter how much our dads insist that mom is final authority in the house... we all know who really owns control. :)
Sigh.
There& #39;s no specific point to this thread.
Just an unpolished rant.
I haven& #39;t said anything new. Nothing that hasn& #39;t already been said countless times.
Everyday someone comes on here to say FUCK PATRIARCHY.
Guess it was my turn today.
Oh, hey, there& #39;s that specific point.
