A third agreed with Chakravarthy and commented, “I strongly agree with reason 3.” A fourth person wrote, “You have some valid points. But it also shows how women have enjoyed patriarchy, and nurture it to pass it on to other generations for their own benefits. The way women have raised their own sons for their own benefits and how they make sure that this system continues speaks volumes about them as well.”
