Hindu society gave equal rights to women. Islam only allows men 4 wives. Why not allow women 4 husbands also????
In any way, Mahbharata is only descriptive of what happened or what is said to have happened. It doesnot say that one should do all those things. It is basically fairytale kind of things.Only Bhgvad Gita part of Mahabharat is prescriptive(ie.says what should be done).
