RELIGIOUS SEXISM IN INDIA

All religions are sexist. Want proofs? Follow:

1> BUDDHISM : A nun, even if she has been ordained for 100 years, must respect, greet and bow in reverence to the feet of a monk, even if he has just been ordained that day. (Monks pay respect to each other according to their seniority, or the number of years they have been ordained.)

2> ISLAM: No female cleric. This is the greatest example of biased views in the book of religion.

3> CHRISTIANITY: No female pope. This is the greatest example of biased views in the book of religion.


4> JAINISM : The bleeding that occurs in menstruation is thought to kill micro-organisms in the body, making the female body less nonviolent than the male body.

5> HINDUISM : Female Foeticide. Need I say more?
