Indian society has been male-dominated from ancient times. Man is taken as superior and woman as inferior and subordinate. In the patriarchal society father husband and other males treat women as their property that can be owned, controlled and dispose off in the way they like. Women are not given opportunity equal to men. In such society we get the masculine definition of ideas and images of women. Although the women are almost fifty percent of total population yet they bear the brunt of human rights violation and endure some of the worst atrocities committed by men. They are by nature very sensitive, sacrificing and home-makers.- Man-Woman and Society in Nayantara Sahgal's Novel The Day in Shadow (1971)

In almost all countries of the world, society has been male dominated. Although women form almost half of total population but they are not been given due respect and place in male - dominated society. They have been taken as powerless and second sex. They are ill-treated not only by their husbands, in-laws but by other relatives.References
