Chapter 91: Being Led by Women

Kural 901
Men who dote upon their wives never achieve great gains,
and men of great ambition avoid that very thing.
Kural 902
The riches of a man who fawningly follows a woman's lead
will buy him only shameful shame.
Kural 903
An abnormal submissiveness to his spouse
will earn a man endless disgrace among decent men.
Kural 904
Though he has mastered the doing of deeds,
the henpecked husband merits little in this life or the next.
Kural 905
A man's fears of his own wife will make him
constantly fearful of doing good for good folks.
Kural 906
Though providence has filled his life,
a man who fears his graceful spouse is devoid of dignity.
Kural 907
A woman's shy ways show great dignity,
unlike a man who lives to do a woman's bidding.
Kural 908
Those who live only to fulfill their wive's wishes
can neither satisfy the needs of friends nor benefit others.
Kural 909
Neither virtuous deeds nor vast wealth nor domestic joys
will be found with men who carry out their wife's commands.
Kural 910
Moneyed men whose thoughts dwell in the mind
never dwell foolishly on relationships with women.
