What do you think about these rules for women in indian culture?

[Asha Rose]

i love my culture.. i like some of our customs but some i think are way over the top and too olden days.... anyway just wondering what do americans think of us?

1. no wearing pants or jeans.
2. anything less than waist length hair is considered "short hair"
3. no talking in front of men.
4. no interrupting when men are talking.
5. no laughing loudly in front of men
6. no walking loudly in front of men (i actually got told off by my grandma today for this)
7. always look down at your feet when you're talking to a man.
8. learn to cook
9. learn to dance sharqi ("belly dance" as americans know it)
8. marry the man your parents choose for you even if he's old enough to be your dad or grandpa.
9. always walk 3 steps behind your husband to show respect
10. never call your husband by his first name. call him "husband" or "master"
11. only eat after your husband has finished eating
12. bear your husband lots of sons
13. never question your husband about his drinking or gambling habits.
14. its a sin to refuse your husband sex
15. its okay for your husband to have mistresses (and its none of your business )

i could go on.. but there are way too many to list here...

girl i really think the one who made up them rules to
follow must have been a man who wanted ever thing
his way. the only one of them rules i a gree with are
a woman should know how to cook. i don't like and are
agree on any of the others and im a man amd i wouldn't
want a woman to follow none of them. a woman are neither
a man should not cheat on there spouse but please who
in there wright mind could put up with that. move to the
us and be free. slavery ended here long a go.
