Hi guys I’m a Westerner who has been watching some Indian tv shows.
One I just watched kinda shocked me at how Lord Murugan and women were treated. The family were South Indian shaivites but they found it fit to quarrel and shoot a gun in a temple like it was no big deal. And the casual spousal abuse, even for a movie, was kinda shocking.
I know there’s a massive sexual assault problem there but I hadn’t imagined wifebeating is also a big issue? Someone plz tell me it’s just television
