that's intelegent
great ..
but believe me ..women don't need to keep their word
they can change

i will tell you about idioms ..
the idiom is like arabic examples
نقولولها بالعربية مثل ..أمثال ..كيما وافق شن طبقة و عاد بخفي حنين و غيرها
وهي تحمل قصة قبل أن تكون مثل ..
in english idioms the same case
we need just to know the story to understand the meaning
so ..women never had word in their history ..so they have no right in this idiom ..haha

thanks for your passing and good bye
