This is very interesting and good to hear, I feel that there are very chivalrous things done in Hindu lore to protect the honour of women. I don’t however understand or agree that levelling whole towns for a single woman is justified. What scriptural translations do you have on the above points?

You mentioned the early Vedic times women received the “holy thread” what justification was in place to change that beautiful practice?

I don’t understand how heavily armed female guards is respecting women … I’m not saying it disrespects them either … I just don’t think it’s relevant.

I just gave you some diverse examples - how women were revered/protected/given equal status or higher. I will post some scriptural translations if I can find them online.

Hinduism has evolved over time to try and stay relevant in the current day & age. Unfortunately, some good practices of the past have been lost in the process to modernize.
