Why do I feel laws like Sati practices (Hinduism), stoning to death (Islam), etc. were made for women just out of male dominance and not purely on religious grounds as they were preached?
Do you think that these practices still have a place in modern society, considering the progress that we have made towards gender equality?
That's a complex question. On the one hand, one could argue that these practices have no place in a civilized society and that they should be eliminated. On the other hand, some may argue that these practices are deeply ingrained in certain cultures and traditions and that they cannot be simply done away with.
