Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 968 — the Prophet ﷺ said: A woman is like a rib: if

وَبِهِ : نَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ .
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : الْمَرْأَةُ كَالضِّلَعِ ، إِنْ أَقَمْتَهَا كَسَرْتَهَا ، وَإِنْ تَرَكْتَهَا اسْتَمْتَعْتَ بِهَا عَلَى عِوَجٍ .
It is narrated from the Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A woman is like a rib: if you try to make her completely straight, you will break her, and if you leave her (as she is), you will benefit from her despite her crookedness."
