'Don't wear skirts' - ketchim - 08-29-2016
India's culture minister has been criticised after saying that the government was
advising foreign tourists not to wear skirts in India.
Mahesh Sharma said "a list of dos and don'ts" given to tourists at airports also
advised them not to venture out alone at night in small towns.

He's often made provocative statements blaming "westernisation" for India's ills
and last year, he said "nights out for girls was not part of Indian culture".

he is right about the culture before for girls - but these men need to educate the boys and other men to respect women - which some of them do not respect women.

Sometimes I ask myself how it could be to live in those countries where you have a lot of restrictions and that sort of thing, but then I remember they have gotten used to it and the feeling goes away. It maybe is because I am not used to that kind of culture, probably, who knows.
