What they eat is not important

Nice article but it missed out highlighting a very important fact about the social status women in the Northeast and Meghalaya in particular. These are evolved societies who do not differentiate between a boy and girl child. Women enjoy high social status and respect in the northeast and are equal partners at home and at work. In Matriarchal society in Meghalaya, its the girl who inherits family property and not the boy. After marriage, the boy has to move into the girl's house. And yes pork is a delicacy in most places in the Northeast and for your information its a very tasty meat.

Why do you care what they eat ? Are they forcing it into your mouth ?
