It's certainly not limited to women, in theory, but I don't think you understand rural village life. For women who aren't free to voice opinions in the home, who don't have privacy, who might be abused or treated like servants, there are few spaces to escape and freely share information. If you've never seen this, they do work very hard to keep it a secret, but mostly it's because they don't have technology.

Presumably, women are not putting up the spy cameras, weren't asked their opinions beforehand, weren't informed whether audio, video, or both were being captured, and don't have access to the footage to verify. If your company started putting trail cams in the break rooms or your neighbor installed one pointing at your back porch, you probably wouldn't think "this is fair for everyone, I trust they won't check it without telling me unless there's a good reason or share this with anyone I wouldn't want them to, like my bosses or my abusive spouse".

I know about how females are being treated in e.g. Iraq. Awful.
