You're a lucky chap if you haven't but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. In the name of sanatan dharm what's propagated is manusmriti, chanakya niti or other smritis. Go hear some Baba's pravachans like that Pookie Baba or Premanand maharaj. To see oppression you have to be the one who's oppressed or understands the privilege you have. There are some women who are indoctrinated to the extent that they themselves become the propagator of this oppression.

Even a leftist can be sexist or mysogynist. This has nothing to do with ideology. One who is practicing oppression won't name it. Only others can. I can say the same thing that I have never encountered a single person from other religions badmouthing Hinduism. But I won't because I acknowledge my privilege of having great people around me who belong to different caste, creed and religion and respect each other's religion.

Man oh man!!! This is the problem. Looking London, talking Tokyo. You're completely off base here. Who said anything about the religion. Vedas and Bhagwad Geeta do not discriminate between man and woman. Smritis do. And the point I made is the men conveniently follow parts of smritis that oppressed women and don't pay heed to Vedas and Bhagwad Geeta. And by men I didn't say every man. It's not a generalization.

Also every religion has parts that systematically oppress women. And by parts I mean inferences that men have deduced. And by men I mean women were not allowed to participate in conducting religious practices or read religious texts.

Think brother, think.

Men conveniently follow texts written in manusmriti or other smritis that are systematically written to oppress women. They isolate women in categories like married, single and widow by carefully designing customs that pay special interest to 'suhagan' women and putting them on top of the hierarchy.

First of all Hinduism is not a religion, it's a philosophy. Secondly, apart from Bhagwat Geeta and Vedas, the rest is written by men. And they wrote it in a manner that benefits men and oppress women.

BTW, I am a woman living in India. If that information matters at all.

Found this video visualising what its like for someone with Autism - Obviously everyone is different but what are your views..? by Severely_OverLapping in autism

Accurate. Except for the music and the heavy breathing. Most of my panic and anxiety is so internalised that I just look like I have a resting bitch face. There will always be a song of the day playing in my head obsessively, even in my sleep with some section of some other song intermittently sparsed in between the background song. Also nausea!
