Chapter 2 –
Role of women has always been in subordination in both world as well as Indian history.
This structure of subordination is visible in almost every historical event recorded
and such feature is conditioned through social conditions prevailing in the
region mostly through path of patriarchal structure. Social conditions also prevail
through caste and gender, role of caste has been very significant in deriving
rights, sexuality and authority of women in Indian society. Endogamy has been a
very important part of this structure of women subordination in the strata of
society which further helps in keeping the sub castes bounded together. The believe
is that every to preserve every sub caste it is important to reproduce within the
society. Which brings us to concluding remark that marriage played a very crucial
role in subordination of women in the Indian society.
