10 Sexist Things said by Chanakya(Tyrion of Ancient India)

Well, for those of you who don't know who Chanakya is, he was a teacher, philosopher, economist, jurist and royal adviser. He was one of the greatest political adviser in history. He was the Tyrion to the Khaleesi(only he is so not like Tyrion) of Indian Politics He did help in the building of the Maurya empire. He was an excellent adviser back in the 4th century BCE but even his excellence can't seem to give an explanation of some of the quotes in today's era.

Here we go:

1. The scholar who has acquired knowledge by studying innumerable books without the blessings of a bonafide spiritual master does not shine in an assembly of truly learned men just as an illegitimate child is not honored in society. 
   
   
   Yes, you did read that right.
   
   
2. A wise man should marry a virgin of a respectable family even if she is deformed. He should not marry one of a low-class family, through beauty. Marriage in a family of equal status is preferable.
   
   
   Yes, Mr. Wonka...I feel ya.
   
   
3. Women have hunger two-fold, shyness four-fold, daring six-fold, and lust eight-fold as compared to men.
   
   
   That's the how much I wanna facepalm myself.
   
   
4. Give your daughter in marriage to a good family, engage your son in learning, see that your enemy comes to grief, and engage your friends in dharma.
   
   
   So much for gender equality, eh?
   
   
5. Give up a member to save a family, a family to save a village, a village to save a country, and the country to save yourself.
   
   
   When has Mr.Obama ever said the wrong thing? 
   
   
6. The heart of a woman is not united; it is divided. While she is talking with one man, she looks lustfully at another and thinks fondly of a third in her heart.
   
   
   Just when you thought this was gonna make sense.
   
   
7. The woman who fasts and observes religious vows without the permission of her husband shortens his life and goes to hell.
   
   
   Sure thing sir. Sure thing.
   
   
8. A woman does not become holy by offering by charity, by observing hundreds of fasts, or by sipping sacred water, as by sipping the water used to wash her husband's feet.
   
   
   Where did this guy get all this shit in his head filled from?
   
   
   
   
9. Courtesy should be learned from princes, the art of conversation from pandits, lying should be learned from gamblers and deceitful ways should be learned from women
   
   
   I think Chanakya didn't get any chicks. He so needed to get laid.
   
   
   
   
   Aannndd the one that takes the cake is:
10. Untruthfulness, rashness, guile, stupidity, avarice, uncleanliness and cruelty are a women's seven natural flaws. 

No. Just no.

And I honestly have never felt this content about the circumstances that I'm living in. Ladies we have come a long way so...
