From woman, man is born within woman, man is conceived to woman he is engaged and married. Woman becomes his friend through woman, the future generations come. When his woman dies, he seeks another woman to woman he is bound. So why call her bad? From her, kings are born. From woman, woman is born without woman, there would be no one at all.
