那些关于印度的谬传

2. Dowry is prevalent in every part of India.
2、嫁妆在整个印度都盛行。

There's no dowry system in most of the North Eastern states ofIndia. In fact, in Meghalaya, marriages are matriarchal with a matrilineal system where property, names and wealth passes from mother to daughter rather than father to son. You'll find women take center-stage in every aspect of life.
在印度，东北部邦大部分地区都没有送嫁妆的习俗。事实上，在梅加拉亚邦，婚姻为母系婚姻，采用母系传承制，在这一制度之下，姓名、资产和财富都通过母亲传给女儿而不是通过父亲传给儿子。因而在生活各个层面，女性都居于核心地位。
