Indian Husbands Seek Refuge Frm Nagging Wives
Nagging spouses are nothing new and certainly no wives from any particular nation have exclusively cornered the market.
There are nagging husbands too, but not as far as a particular group of Indian husbands are concerned. They are demanding that the local government create a male protection society to address their grievances.
The men have claimed that they have had enough torment from their spouses and they marched through the streets of the northern city of Lucknow dressed as grooms and demanding a National Commission For Men.
“We are asking for equal rights. We want somebody to listen to the grievances of men,” said Subhash Dube, a medical doctor who described himself as a victimized husband.
There is a penal code that is meant to protect women against their husbands, which is well and good, but statistics show an abuse of this section pertaining to dowry issues.
“Demands to amend this law have been put forward a lot of times. Therefore, we oppose this law”, says Indu Pandey, president of the All India Welfare Committee for Husbands.
This is a moot point because traditionally if an Indian groom and his family are unhappy with the bride’s dowry, the wife is often physically and emotionally abused; hence the reason for this penal code. The dowry refers to the money, goods, or estate that a wife brings to her husband at the time of the marriage.
Although the practice of dowries was banned in 1961, it exists to this day. Indian police receive hundreds of complaints related to dowry issues every day from women, and when there is a suspicious death of a recently married woman, they are required to investigate it as a possible “dowry death.”
So the tables have turned and the men don’t like it. Most of the misuse of the law regarding women concerns the registering of false claims of harassment by their husbands or their families about not having paid enough in terms of jewelry, cash or other assets.
Although time will tell about this law and its fairness and magnitude to Indian men and women, a truck driver in China named Zhou found another way to deal with his wife’s nagging. He jumped off a ferryboat with his hands over his ears into the Yangtze River in an attempt to escape.
He swam the dangerous two kilometers to shore where he was found. “I felt I was dying, but even that’s better than my wife’s nagging,” he said.
Nagging is not limited to one sex or another, but these two extreme examples tell a tale of what can happen when humans are pushed too far. Is there a lesson here?

Indian men's definition of victimisation is very funny.If the wife doen't bring enuff dowry, they are victimed.If she doesn't produce a male child, the husband feels victimed.If she complaints to police of domestic violence, they are victimised...............poor Indian husband.Are there any takers.....two a penny and plus one free offer.
Are you nuts?......no doubt I am crazy about you!
insecure spouses create more troubles.....
Empty head satan's house....
Be mature, maintain trust and understanding....Live in Peace and harmony ;)

Bob Marley says
No woman, no cry (Repeat 4 times)
Said said
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, ob-serving the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have had, oh good friends we've lost along the way
In this bright future you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Oh my Little sister, don't she'd no tears
No woman, no cry
Said, said, said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
Log wood burnin' through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone...
Everything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
No woman, no cry
No, no woman, no woman, no cry
Oh, little sister, don't she'd no tears
No woman, no cry
No woman, no woman, no woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Oh, my little darlyn no she'd no tears
No woman, no cry, yeah
any sister no she'd no tears, no women no cry
No woman no cry, no woman no cry
No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Say, say, said I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Obba, obba, serving the hypocrites
As the would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say
No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Little darling, don't she'd no tears, no woman no cry
Say, say, said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, love would burn on through the night
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My fear is my only courage
So I've got to push on thru
Oh, while I'm gone
Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright, everything 's gonna be alright
So woman no cry, no, no woman no cry
Oh, my little sister
Don't she'd no tears
No woman no cry
I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
As it was, log would burnin' through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My fear is my only courage
So I've got to push on thru
Oh, while I'm gone

Growing "balls"... hhhmmm,
dont they have one?(2,i should say):0
I Agree with nadt
...listen to the sound of silence....
well if he was listening in the first place, she wouldnt have to nag.lol. Are mens brains so small that they dont get it in the first place. Then these men should grow some "balls' and deal with their problems instead of crying to their Government to help them, shes nagging, not physically(maybe emotionally) abusing you, do you reall need Governemnt intervention for that.
no, sandeep :0
sangyabalya?
...listen to the sound of silence....

Women who seek to be equal to men lack ambition... :-P
we are both created equal i guess and there's always balance in anything.
Go! Housebands! lol.
^_^ sticks and stones...
well i have always said that there are two sides of a coin....we always hear sob stories of women who lament over wife abuse and things and take advantage of their 'weaker sex' position in society.but there are also cases of men who have been driven to the brink of insanity because of women!atrocities against women DO exist....but they are all not exactly saints either.the govt. should probe into such issues with an unbiased eye before making judgements.
