爷么不狠江山不稳女人不狠男人不稳
[yé me bù hĕn jiāng shān bù wĕn nǚ rén bù hĕn nán rén bù wĕn]
'If a man is not fierce enough, the empire will not be secure, if women aren’t ruthless enough men cannot stand stable'. This suggests a rather aggressive take on both power and gender roles implying strength and dominance ensure stability and respect.
