sindoor, bangles, mangalsutra

well a married woman in hindu family must wear these as signs of marriage for the welfare of her family and husband.
but are these only for the welfare of her family? isnt it just a way to identify her as married in the society so that she has a less chance for her independence? independence for the sake of sex, as well as work. whenever a girl marries some imposed responsibilities fall on her. looking after her inlaws, taking care for families, cooking for the husband etc.
my question is why men never keeps a sign of their marriage? isnt it giving them a lots of independence which they can surely misuse?

  2. question is not of why they were introduced but of why they were made compulsory and why they were introduced for women only and not for men?
