Abstract
This article reviews the impact of cultural factors on mental health of South Asian women. Marked gender discrimination in South Asia has led to second class status of women in society. Their mobility, work, self-esteem and self-image, in fact their worth and identity, seem to depend upon the male members of a patriarchal society. Women's lack of empowerment and both financial and emotional dependence have restricted their self-expression and choices in life. This, along with family, social and work pressures, has a definite impact on women's mental health.
摘要
本文综述了文化因素对南亚女性心理健康的影响。南亚社会中存在明显的性别歧视，导致女性处于二等公民地位。她们的行动自由、工作、自尊和自我形象，实际上是她们的价值和身份，似乎都依赖于父权社会的男性成员。女性缺乏赋权，以及经济和情感上的依赖，限制了她们在生活中的自我表达和选择。这种情况，加上家庭、社会和工作压力，对女性的心理健康有明确的影响。
