Misogyny runs so deep in Indian families & it’s just because of men’s fragile egos
My maasi (mother’s sister) had an injury sister and she has 2 very young kids. Her husband was at work when she & my lil cousin got injured so as soon as my mom got to know she started getting ready to leave to go and take care of them.
And my maasi kept saying no don’t come and all.
I thought she didn’t want to trouble my mum to come all the way. But I was pushing my mom to go nevertheless. Her husband was also on the way home btw.
I almost scolded my mum that why are you not going!! And then she told me that apparently my Maasi’s husband doesn’t like when she takes help from her sister or mother🤡
So to satisfy his ego my mother didn’t even go see her own sister just so he doesn’t fight w my maasi later. And ya, he’s done this before. Fights with her if she stays over at her mother’s place more than 2-3 days.
What a clown man, imagine being 40 & getting upset over these things.
Some ppl really don’t have a life. I’m so done w men in my family.
