Rubbish argument! Please cut the culture crap. I'm a proud Indian and I've seen enough places and people to form my opinion. Just marriage doesn't solve all the domestic problems. Marriage should not be a contract so that 2 people are forced to live under one roof, even if they cannot accommodate the other. A lot of marriages in India are like this. And because of this, people just drag on and in most cases, the most suffered lot is their children. I don't mind a live-in relationship, if both parties are happy with it. And one more thing is that in most problematic marriages, women are the losers. And our so called Great culture doesn't support them. I agree that we have a lot of written things for the protection of women and almost nil in practice. So, if a women becomes bold enough to choose a partner to live with, society doesn't accept it. And some people just blame western society! I've stayed 2-3 years outside India, especially in Europe and people who blame the west, have never seen west! If you see the respect for elders and women and the safety a woman experiences here, it's atleast 90% more then what our great culture offers! Saying that "It is not our culture" is foolishness!!!
