You have mentioned "In Kerala, in the south of India, the woman of the house is the dominant force. She decides the issues of the family."This was prominent the period when caste system was prominent in kerala.Besides the matriarchal set up was more established in "Nair" caste alone.The women belonging to Namboothiri( brahmin),or the lower caste ,did not have any dominance in the family. I believe this was the status of women belonging to other religion too. With the increase in literacy level and socila development the plight of women in all stata of the society have improved but a patriachal set up is followed and preferred,though the income earners claim more dominance in family matters . I hope you would go through the matter and verify the statements. sir,
