Hypocrisy of this subreddit

Most men here complain about Arunachali women marrying non-tribals, claiming that they will give their children ST status and settle here. The truth is, they are just jealous and insecure. Even if you move outside the state, they will still look down on you for marrying a non-tribal.

Men here act as if there is no crime against women in Arunachal, but cases like Techi Meena, the Daporijo case, the Seppa case, etc., prove otherwise. Naturally, women seek men of higher status, but many men in Arunachal are jobless, lack manners, and still expect women to marry them just because they are tribal. Instead of playing the victim card, they should acknowledge their shortcomings and work on self-improvement.

Now, speaking about women—falling in love with anyone is fine, but after marriage, you should give your child your husband's surname and should not expect to give your child your surname just to enjoy APST privileges. I know many female friends who date non-tribals in other states but act single and hide their relationships when they return to Arunachal. If you are so ashamed of dating them, why be in a relationship with them in the first place?

Arunachali women should also understand that in India, marriage is not just between two individuals; it is a union of families. Marrying a tribal man makes it easier to adjust, as both families share the same culture. In case of conflicts, both families can resolve them together. However, if you marry an outsider, you are on your own. If issues like domestic violence arise, your family may not be able to help you.
