I for one don't ask her to observe any fasts, but is entirely upto her. Karwa chauth is least of my concerns. No, I really don't care.
I am not religious, but Wanted to quote a shabd from Guru Granth sahib ji (Sikhs' holy book) on the observance of fasts - quite apt even to this day and age:
"Chhodey Ann (food) Kare Pakhand....
Na Sohagan Na Oh Rand".... (Page 873)

But desi's will take the cake any day as it would be the most stupidest thing on earth.
Let me tell you from what I know and have observed :
1. During periods, woman will have to sit outside.
2. A black cat crosses your path, you abandon your outing outside.
3. Something falls down (like an egg or a cup), you stay at home for the entire day.
4. You close all the windows at night to prevent evil spirits from entering the house.
5. Two daughter inlaws are two son in laws / sons in the same house hold should not share the same name.
6. Join your jobs on wednesday only.
I could go on...

Here's the one:
She, who fasts - a reflection of a sanctimonious smug,
Neither she a married nor considered widowed.

No Nightmare. I donot follow superstitions (I am a christian).
However, I have come across this (done by mostly Hindus) till now.
Hope this clears the air.
