Would u take or give dowry for your marriage?

Definetly not......why is such unlawful practice being followed still shows the attitude of people....i strongly hope people start recognising dowry taking and giving as a serious offence and look down on them....coz only social movement can bring change in the anti-dowry system.
Hope to see such equal status giving India.

hii everyone...
so here are my views:

1st of all unlike others i wud really like to thank those guys who dare to say taht they have no problem iin taking dowry!!! atleast they have guts to say taht!!! which is considered as the 1st step in changing the behavior!!!

we all have different opinions ..its only whn we stick to our rationale then we are able to talk...abt those who condemn the "guys" should actually refrain..i wud better be presenting my view rather than insulting( ya i did feel like that after reading the harsh comments) them!!!


first.. what is dowry??
is it anything taht is given by bride's family to groom ..or is it smthing which is forcefully taken frm bride's family?
if the groom demands sm money...so still the situation is much better as bride has always the option to move on...so i dn't feel anything bad in that!!!


if the person is satisfied with watevr he has got then its an ideal case!!
but if the person pretends to be satisfied...here comes the catche!!!then its a problem:he may / may not demand dowry afterwards...then also i feel its more of bride's freedom to actually stay or leave...

but whn she is nt led to leave...then its crime...fr which legal action can be taken...

after all this the problem is taht girls usually dn't complain as they have been tld taht they have to stay with their partner , doesn't matter wat he does!!so in order to be taht guddy guddy papa's girl...she stays back!! they dn't think taht their one such step actiually leads to hell ...their life as well as their chidren!!!

so many a times wat we sarcastically call as women empowerment is really needed there although a strict warning is to APPLY YOUR BRAINS B'FORE REACTING!!! as many a times girls do hullaboo without any reason jus to have media empathy( few recent dowry cases on news channels were found to be foaxed!!)

take care

there is no question about money or dowry in love n marriage. It seems that it is prevailing only in india. Does more dowry ensure u a good married life? or would ur spouse love u more for it? the answer is a definite NO. There are no conditions in a realtionship.
Dowry had spoiled the life of many. we understand that the groom's people ask a hefty amount which will cost u a fortune. 2morrow if u happen to have daughters n as inflation is rising and if they happen to marry a very educated person but demand dowry in crores at that time would u realise what people r going through.And I m not exagrattng abt "crore" today people demand in lakhs... 2morrow it would be crores..
If girls need to give money to others to take care of herself then she better keep thet amount with her and live life her own.

Dowry taking is a crime and one should be punished for it. But unfortunately most of the people don’t think like that. Even my cousins got married by giving heavy dowry. If one is not willing to give dowry they don’t get married. What happens to our educated men, in fact people who are well educated they demand more dowries? How could dowry be eliminated? How could law be enforced properly when whole society is doing this crime?

We can make a change by educating our own family n friends. I think government should give good publicity about this issue n bring it in front of people and proclaim is as a crime n take serious action against it especially amongst "educated illiterate''. Government can make it a part of education from standard 1 as some days back i read in TIMES OF INDIA that, a 5 year old was arrested because he was troubling his in laws for dowry..... see child marriage n also the bad thinkng which the child has imbibed from his parents.
If its a part of education.... then we will have a different INDIA tommorrow.
 
Dowry was primarily meant for making the girl live prosperously in her husband's home.
Now it has drastically changed its form where its deteriorating her life.
 
well, it is very shame for us that dowry cases are still exist in our country.i think this is the matter on which parents should think.instead of spending money on dowry, they should invest them on their daughter's education.in this way they can make her life more convenient.
spending on dowry is wastage where as spending on education is investment & that too risk free...........
howz that
 
No its absolutely a crime n marriage is an institution that should be respectable n pure n no dowry should be taken or give!
 
i m totaly against the dowry system, and to eradicate this frm our society wat all v can do is v can take action against ppl who are practising dowry in our locality.

wat do u think guys do correct me if m wrong.

this not m saying only but i have taken action against pll wo wer practising in my loclality only
 
Ohh..... its good to see that we are having people like u who are actually doing something for this society..... n also doing wat u r preaching!!!!!!
Koodos 4 Gunjan!!!!
 
Some people claim that they have not demanded anything as dowry.But actually their demands are very huge that converts even a well-settled person to a pauper.The cause of concern is not the amount paid as dowry but the attitude of the people who consider it as their right.The most important thing is that the demands does not end in marriage.When some of these are not met, the girl has a disappointing life through out her life-span.
 
Well in Islam the groom has to pay to his wife which is called 'Maher.' This maher is given for her future security.It is upto the bride to decide how much amount of maher she wants to receive....n this maher system is still being practised widely...a nice tradition to b practiced in t generation where people are being killed for dowry
 
it is fine if bride brings whatever she wishes like n groom doesnt have a say in it..
If brides r supposed to bring money for both husband n wife's future then y is husband there for? Girl takes care of children, husband n home n so husband is supposed to earn then y girl bother about giving money at marriage?
 
u r trying to tell that u will take dowry because u will take care of her
now in this time women r not sitting at home even they work and r able to take care of them properly
now many women r there who take of the entire family financially

i am not in the favour of takeing dowary.
 
no dowry at all ...and lets not give it some other form of gift and if it si the case then dont make it compulsion or social ritual for others in the society who cant afford it ...no dowry help the needy and get help when you need them ....
