    I think that in the current environment, when a woman can use a restraining order to kick a man out of his home and obligate him to continue paying for it, married men should let their wives be the only signatories on the loan and on the title. Sure, this makes such men guests in their own homes, but isn’t this the de facto situation now? If she gets on a power trip and “kicks him out,” she will then be stuck paying for the mortgage. This would be an incredible check on female power, if the man had been paying it all along up until that moment.

    In the scenario, it is best not to marry an Indian woman. They can as well work their ass and earn money for themselves to get what they need(or rather want). Pre nups are also not useful in India as they are not enforceable in a court of law. Indian men have just one option to prevent themselves from being tortured by an Indian woman.
