Can money buy mind?
Can it buy happiness?
Can it buy satisfaction?
Than how it can by a human!

Dowry System is a ritual that Indians are following by their full potential, and this potential is given by both sides, I'm not blaming a girl side or a boy side both sides are equally responsible.
One is just selling and other is buying,
Let me tell you perspective behind it!

#1As a bride family perspective
Dad: Dowry will keep her safe their!
Mom: She will hear taunts if dowry is less!
Granny: If Dowry is less they will torture her!
Brother: She will sent back if dowry will be less!

#2Groom family perspective
Dad: We will keep her for entire life!
Mom: She will not work 24hrs!
Granny: It's a ritual she will bring money as goddess laxmi!
Brother: We can show off money to society!

Now guys bride family is giving just for sake of her family! Let me please...
What if you want to secure your daughter's future then own her own flat, give her education and freedom, why dowry?

Now to all groom family, The girl is coming leaving her own family where she is born, grew and strength, And you still want money for feeding her! excuse me She is feeding you! she is making home and cook for you! And laxmi, if you disrespect the woman it's equal to disrespect laxmi, durga and sarswati.

Now this not the end still let me show you Grooms and Brides perspective!

Bride:
If I will marked less they will not value me, They will disrespect me! They will owe me taunts of being worthless
(Basically she loses her confidence)

Groom:
If dowry didn't came how I will show off, How I can say she is wonderful...etc

And Guys this is not end still!
Basically they are buying humans, emotions and relationships! And later it turns toxic! So better not to give and nor to accept!
