We have heard of things like
mail-order brides and the common one, which hits close to home in my opinion, prostitution. These are taboo subjects and these practices may be illegal in some countries, but so what? Other countries apparently don't find anything "wrong" with these things or else, they would not legalize it.
Wives for rent, anyone? Even for a relatively conservative and culturally-rooted country like India, this thing is nothing new. Frankly, I'm a bit surprised this even made the news. I mean, come on, just turn on the boob tube and see the wife-swapping or women-swapping
shows on tv. Otherwise, just go out to a red light district in your area. You get my point. The only probable starking difference is that these women in India are valued at a mere 175 bucks, while all else you get either at a higher price or at no cost.
But then, since we're talking about wives and not women in general, it is not only sex that they render to their wealthy customers. Per month, these females must be accommodating to include living in the same house, taking care of the male, and looking after the property. If your family is working in a rural farm for a living and can be found in such a desperate situation, well, I could not blame you for having to ship off your spouse (or kids -- yikes!) to somebody else.
