Bride Trafficking

Info
In mewat district there are 879 women for every 1000 men.
national average 927:1000
Women are brought in from poorer parts of india.
Women cost less than a cow.
Very common that people are sold at age 12 and pregnant within a year.
The bought brides are treated as outsiders in their new community because they are thought to be more course and initiate arguments with their husband.
There are more animal shelters in india than women shelters.
A lot of the brides think that they are being taken somewhere for a job to earn money for their families but in reality are being sold

POEM
Too young for flirtation,
Bred on starvation,
A family of desperation,
Tempted with vocation,
Only to be sold to molestation,
Forced fornication
Causing yearly lactation.
Does providing accomodation,
Justify the deprivation,
Lets have a conversation,
It's simple contemplation.
Is it a question of adaptation
Or is it simply violation.

But don't worry if you're not sold on it yet.
