गुद्दी पाछै मत हो सै
INTELLECTUAL INFERIORITY--an undisciplined mind and a slightly wooly brain
This assessment of women kind is incidentally, attributed to Indra( Rg Veda VIII.33.17). The implications of this are worked out much later in the Manusmrti, which discusses the possibility of interrogating women witness during legal disputes.
In the ultimate analysis ,we are told that the evidence proferred by even a number of pure women should not be accepted, owing to the instability of their intellect(stribiddhi asthiravat, Manusmriti VIII.77).
Small wonder then,that kings are cautioned against confiding in women , those eternal betrayers of secrets( Manusmriti VII.150).
