Indische Männerrechtler stürmen ministerielles Treffen mit Feministinnen

Männer waren bei dem feministischen Regierungstreffen zum Thema häusliche Gewalt offenbar nicht erwünscht – aber sie erkämpften sich ihre Teilnahme:

New Delhi, June 25 (IANS) A meeting called Wednesday by Women and Child Minister Development Renuka Chowdhury to discuss the law relating to the harassment of women over dowry turned acrimonious after some 50 men and their families barged into the venue, alleging the law was blind to their torture at the hands of women.

The high drama lasted over one hour at the India Islamic Cultural Centre here, with the minister initially refusing to talk to the men when they barged in. She asked them to withdraw from the small hall packed with women delegates, including experts, psychiatrists and psychologists.
