How to Price Women?
“
It may be the cock that crows, but it is the hen that lays the eggs.” - Margaret Thatcher (1925-2013), first woman prime minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990.
Women come in the avatar of mother, wife and daughter. While daughters are pampered till they get to marriageable age, then they become a liability In terms of giving dowry and often demand for more from their husbands and in-laws. Yet, women are honoured and even worshipped as reflected in the following instances. In Tamil Nadu, an actor-film-maker has built a temple for his mother in his home-town Poovirunhavali. In Karnataka’s Yadgir district, Nagappa Kuntoji (80), a retired teacher, has built a temple in honour of his mother, where he worships her daily.
