Chaste wives and prostitute sisters: patriarchy and prostitution among the Bedias of India

Agrawal, Anuja

Bedias are a marginal north Indian de-notified community, large segments of whom survive entirely on the prostitution of their young, unmarried womenfolk. This book is a detailed account, first of its kind, of the implications of the systematic practice of familial prostitution on the kinship structures and marriage practices of this community.
