Why did Solomon say women are more bitter than death?

Update:

Ecc 7:26 And I find more bitter than death the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.

Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:

Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

    Solomon did not say women, he said the woman, whose heart is snares and nets, and her hands as bands:

    Proverbs 12:4 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.

    Proverbs 14:1 Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.

    They had hygiene issues.

  • Death may be bitter for an instant, but imagine being married to an atheist woman. Better not, though. Don't want to ruin your day.

    You got a scripture verse for that? How are we supposed to explain something if we don't know where in the Bible you're talking about?

    *Oooh Ecclesiastes. You do know the purpose of Ecclesiastes right? It's basically Solomon going through a mid-life crisis. Trying to figure out the meaning of life as he realizes that everything around him is temporary. He also says in that same book that life is futile. I'm sure we can all relate to that right? Times when we thought life was futile.

    He probably forgot to hang the washing out one day.
