Most of these generalizations are incorrect. Many if not most wives work, just like in the US. And most children attend school just as they would in any other country. add a comment

India is not a part of the Middle East. It is a country of many cultures, religions and customs similar to the United States and no generalizations can be drawn.

One custom for women is to wear a Jilbab. This is a dress like an overcoat that covers from neck to feet. This is to discourage any molestation from men that are not family members. They also wear scarves that cover the head neck and ears down to the chest.

They would probably be similar to the folks in the region. It would also depend greatly on religion and heritage.
