Do Men Fool Women or Do Women Fool Themselves?

Acharya Prashant: Look at what the market says when it talks of women - are there books specific to the women? But look at the advertisements. What are they selling, when it comes to the women? Stuff related to the eggs, and the body. The man might even be sold frequent flyer programs because he travels a lot. But the woman is always targeted to sell the lip gloss, the bra and egg paint. Why aren't the airlines targeting you to sell their frequent flyer programs? If I ask you, why don’t you fly away? Fly away from the nest, that’s your only chance.

Cars are being sold and the target customer is a man, and the woman is being used to sex up the car. Very few car companies are targeting to sell cars to women. Such an insult it is, is it not? No car manufacturer thinks that an entire model can be brought out to serve the needs of the women. But the woman is always present in the car advertisement. And what is she doing there? Displaying the curves. And the manufacturer is saying, “My car is as curvy as this woman. All the men, come over.”

Be the user of the car, not the doll in the car.

Learn to be on the driver’s seat, not on the rear seat or the seat next to the driver. Learn to hold the steering, get out of your nest. And don’t be so damn particular about your sexuality and virginity and what else – all body stuff. My biggest asset is my eyebrows and lips and curves and virginity. Now, what do you expect from life? What else will you get, except bondage and imprisonment?

Knowledge must be your asset.

Strength must be your asset.

Exposure must be your asset.

Money must be your asset.

And overall…Truth must be your asset!

Not your breasts and hips. You spend so much time pandering to the needs of the body.

Spend time enriching yourself, spend time gaining knowledge, spend time skilling yourself. Why do we find so few women in science? Out of the list of the 800-900 Noble laureates, why are there so few women? Why are there so few women in the science laboratories of the world? Where are they in politics, in sports, at least in the developing countries? Where are they in literature, in all ways of creativity?

I will tell you where they are, they are in the nest.

When a man is busy creating a new machine, the woman is busy looking after her eggs. Now, who will rule, and who will be the slave? Tell me, tell me. And unfortunately, the woman is preparing herself just to receive the man.

The woman is more selfless than the man. She is the finer product of evolution than man. So, the man will be busy enhancing his business or creating a new machine and the woman would be busy taking care of the house and cooking food for the man. Now man has done everything for his own personal development, he will be called as the ruler of the business empire. And what is the woman doing? Doing the man's laundry and cooking his dinner.

And he returns more and more empowered every day because eight-ten hours of the day, he is working in his self-interest. He is working to gain money, he is working to gain respect, power, strength. And what is the woman doing all this while? Taking care of the eggs, doing the laundry, doing the meals. And then she expects that the man will be honest and kind enough to grant her an equal status. Why will this exploitative man, as man is defined to be, why will this man ever grant her an equal status? Why? The man is the king, and pardon me for being harsh, you are just his concubine. You may call yourself 'the queen' but you are not. A harlot you are. The king can throw you away, whenever he pleases.

Be less emotional, the emotion is the woman’s undoing. Don’t weep so frequently, mind those tears. You think your tears are your strength? They are your biggest weakness. Curse yourself for weeping out. Stay strong. Don’t give in to the emotional traps.

The man says, “Darling, why do you have to work. You stay at home, I will work. You take care of the bed and the eggs and the babies and your mother-in-law. I will bring in the booty and obviously, you have equal rights over that. My money is your money”, never accept this temptation. His money is never your money. Never try to think that his money is your money. If you don't earn anything, then you are a beggar and that's all. Full stop. He might be earning millions, but if you don't earn anything of your own, you don't earn anything. Full stop.

Emotions, tears, biology, body, nest—that's the woman's world. And she is so easy to fool, so easy to fool. And man has been forever fooling the woman, and the woman still doesn’t want to wake-up.
