#MeToo women look back and wonder why they gave in and felt so vulnerable. Oftentimes it was due to the power imbalance.
This power imbalance also applies to Christian #missionaries in India.

Faced with no options to elevate himself from poverty, a poor Hindu is given a helping hand and promised a lot more, with the ulterior motive of converting to Christianity. Funded many times by wealthy Westerners, shrewd missionaries aren't different from #MeToo villians.
