Ain't no lady Rajas... If you look at the photos of the recent Raja coronation ceremony (somebody posted a link a couple weeks ago), many of them are pictured side-by-side with their wives, but the captions read "Raja So-and-So of Wherever"; the women aren't mentioned, as if they didn't exist. (Actually at first the captions said, "Raja So-and- So and Wife," but apparently somebody felt that gave a little too much recognition to the women, so the "and Wife" was subsequently removed from the captions.) The "respect" is more like lip service, as someone here observed a while back, at least in terms of women having any voice in running the movement at the top levels.
