1. More women, disaster

    Radhavallabha: In one BTG article, you described increase in women population as a natural disaster.

    Prabhupada: Yes.

    Radhavallabha: So when one woman read this article, she became very angry. She came back and was very angry.

    Prabhupada: She may be angry. She is woman and man. Actually this is physiological. If a man is too much addicted to sex life, he'll become impotent, and if he begets child, it will be a girl. With no potency to give birth to a male child…. That requires potency.

    Hamsaduta: When we were going around in London making life members, I noticed that in so many families, all the children are girls.

    Prabhupada: Yes. The whole world is full of girls, girl children. Why? There is no potency. Potency finished. Or impotent. And if you keep one boy brahmacari, no sex life, and get him married, the first child must be a boy, must be, without any doubt.

    Lokanatha: That means, then, woman is more potent than…

    Prabhupada: Yes, yes. Yes. The Ayur-vedic formula is that when there is discharge, woman's discharge, more, means girl, and man's discharge, more, means boy. This is physiological.

    Ramesvara: The women argue that they are stronger than the men.

    Prabhupada: Yes. You are stronger than the man, that when there is fight, the man goes; you do not go. You are so strong. You are simply ravished in the absence of your husband. That's all.

    Ramesvara: Now…. The women are joining the Army in America now.

    Prabhupada: Yes, I have seen a police in London. So I told that "If I catch your hand and give you a slap, where is your police?" [laughter] "I am old man. If I catch your hand and give you a slap, what police action will be there?"
