"There is hardly a case in which the dispute was not caused by a woman"

- Juvenal

About this Quote

This quote by Juvenal recommends that ladies are often the cause of conflicts. This might be interpreted in a couple of various ways. Firstly, it could be viewed as a criticism of females, suggesting that they are more likely to cause conflicts than guys. It could also be viewed as a reflection of the patriarchal society in which Juvenal lived, where ladies were seen as inferior to males and were not provided the same rights or chances. It could likewise be analyzed as a talk about the power dynamics between men and women, with women often being in a weaker position and thus more likely to be the reason for conflicts. Lastly, it might be seen as a talk about the importance of interaction and understanding in relationships, as disagreements typically develop when there is an absence of interaction or understanding in between two people. Whatever the interpretation, this quote by Juvenal highlights the significance of understanding and communication in relationships, and the potential repercussions of a lack thereof.
