"印度建議新娘放棄使用手機"

使用高科技產品顯然對越來越多的新婚夫婦造成問題。

旁遮普省婦女委員會近來發布命令，要求新婚婦女在結婚的前兩年不要太常講手機。這個不尋常的建議是為了避免丈夫吃醋。委員會的主任委員沙哈說，放棄講手機可以幫助夫妻適應婚姻生活，不會彼此猜忌。

沙哈說這個正式的忠告是必要的，因為他聲稱：「將近40%的婦女以（她們的）丈夫和婆家不喜歡（她們）講手機為由，考慮尋求離婚。」他也說：「大部分的丈夫說他們的太太總是在講電話，他們懷疑他們的人格，因為懷疑他們是在跟前男友通電話。」

這個委員會向男性保證，他們的新婚妻子只會打給家人，但是也警告婦女每個小時都打電話回家會破壞他們的婚姻。沙哈聲稱，家暴、性騷擾和家庭問題的報導，都是由於手機對話所產生的爭端越來越多的緣故，他的協會呼籲女性適度調整以創造更美滿的婚姻。

(Culture) Indian Brides Told to Give up Cell Phones

Use of the gadgets is apparently causing problems for many newlywed couples.

The Punjab State Commission for Women (PSCW) recently issued a directive telling newlywed women not to talk on their cell phones too much during the first 2 years of their marriages. The reason for the unusual advice was to prevent their husbands from getting jealous. Gurdev Kaur Sangha, who heads up the commission, said foregoing phone calls would help couples adapt to married life free from suspicion.

Sangha said the official advisory was necessary as he claimed almost 40 percent of women consider seeking a divorce on the grounds that their husbands and in-laws do not like them talking on mobile phones. He also said that most husbands said their wives are always on the phone and they doubted their character as they suspected them of talking to ex-boyfriends.

The commissions statement assured men that their brides would only be calling their families; it did, however, also warn women that calling home every hour would be damaging to their marriage. Sangha claimed that reports of domestic violence, sexual harassment, and family problems as a result of disputes over cell phone conversations are increasing, and his organization called on women to adjust slightly to create stronger marriages.
