It's a very different world

What would you do if your daughter was engaging in extra-marital affairs?  Would you do anything?  Could you do anything? In parts of India this is a very serious matter.  So serious that a father beheaded his 22-year-old daughter who was doing just that and, thus, “causing insult to him in society”.

Another Indian father burnt alive his 20-year-old daughter because she had eloped with her boyfriend.

I wonder what these men would have done if their sons had done the same thing.

Grinned broadly, patted them heartily on the back, and said, "Well done, my boy!"
