जाया वा स्याज्जनित्री वा सम्भवः स्त्रीकृतो नृणाम् । हे कृतघ्नाश्तयोर्निन्दां कुर्वतां वः कुतः शुभम् ॥ ७४-११ ॥

The Śāstras say that a woman (strī) is both a man’s wife and mother, and men owe their birth to women. Those that speak ill of women, therefore, are ungrateful persons. How can you people be happy?
