Hi friends,
I also agree that dowry is integral part of India like olden days, in these days also 50% of people don't wants daughter because of dowry. People think daughters are burden because of dowry. So I think so dowry should be strictly band, because god has given you 2 hands, 2 legs and a mind. So use it and don't ask for dowry.

It is inhumane & uncivilized act. This shows how cruel we are, hard hearted rather no hearted. For money & wealth man will step down to such an extent. I think these are all the result of following our age old rotten traditions. I don't know why people given so much importance to old is gold, old is gold. There is no understanding in it.
Every minute everything is changing but we never changed our thinking. We learned how to fly on air, how to swim in the water but never learned how to walk on the earth! People give lecture & talk of love, peace, god, religion etc but never transformed themselves good.

Men who doesn't have backbone asks dowry. Why, can't they earn of their own? The women are like burden to men now-a-days. You may know that, in olden days parents used to kill girls because they are considered as a burden since they have to give dowry. Actually men have to be killed for asking dowry not women. Dowry has to be banned.

For what shake dowry will be given? Let us compare man and woman education, salary, property, height and handsome/beauty.
How many women will marry boy without asking boy's above things that to women look high in everything?
Problem lies with women and women selfish expectations men start you too look for every thing equally. Let me bare 50% finance responsibilities. Many men doing house work too.

According to my opinion, Yes. Dowry is an integral part of India.
Even if some families are rich though they follow such but poor man can't afford all these. I would like to give one example on this.
Assume that one one person who belongs to the poor family but he has wished to do marriage of his daughter for this he wonders here and there. After a lot of efforts, he gets one person which is best for his daughter as she looking for. Only for his daughter's he gets ready to give dowry even he can't afford that much money. See how we got accepted all these even we can't though we accepted. That indicates an integral part.
I would like to suggest to all my friends to get rid off from all these and become self-independent so that we can face every situation easily and with ours accordingly.

As in the present generation male and female working equally and are paid equally, then why the bride families have to pay dowry just for the luxuries of the bridegroom. They can just give gifts as a token of gratitude but not forcefully. Earlier gifts were given with bride so that she can be comfortable but is was misunderstood. As now both the girl and the boy are well educated they should stand against this dowry system so that it gets eliminated from air Indian society.

Hii.
Yes, bride burning and dowry are an integral part of India. Even though will it the satisfactory thing that if women husband die the women along with her husband also has to burn. It is a crucial thing. And coming to the dowry the persons who are rich they are giving as much as a dowry that is asked by bridegroom family. But what about poor people can they give that much of dowry to bridegroom family?
Rich people are making this issue so problematic. One thing I don't know is girls are any things to buy or any product to buy by spending money. These all are should be banned.

Hi friends.
According to me when a girl leaves her parents home and goes to a new house, she has lots of dreams which one can see through the brightness of her eyes. In the return of those dreams her parents have to expend their hard earned money without thinking about their old age when that money can help them in many ways but groom and his parents think not even for a single moment about them they just need to fulfill their future demands which they complete by pushing other family's future to dark.
Only bride's parents can understand the pain of sending their daughter to a new home. If one demands dowry before marriage there are very rare chances that girl will be happy in that house. So it is also a job of parents to look a groom who can keep their daughter always happy. And yes dowry should never be taken and given. If one can't understand it just keep yourself in place of that girl's parent.

Dowry is one of the awful evil in the developing country like India. We everyday see many cases like torturing their wives for dowry. Don't they earn their own money?Don't they have any self respect? For money how can they behave such a cruel with their wives who came to them by scarifying everything they owned. Guys as we are all educated and well cultured just think before acting.
In my view the persons who tortures their wives for dowry is not less than beggars. If the bride's family is ready to give dowry then I don't disobey them to take it am just telling you not to demand it.
