�If you don�t beat your woman for three days, she becomes a fox.�
�If you listen to a woman�s advice, the house comes to ruin; if you don�t listen, the house comes to shame.�
�If a woman cries, no good luck for three years.�
�A woman�s mouth is a cheap thing.�
�You can know in water 1,000 fathoms deep, but you can�t know the mind of a woman.�
�When wood fire and a woman are stirred up, the outcome is a great misfortune.�
�Get slapped at the government office; come home and hit your woman.�
�A bad wife is a grievance for 100 years; bad bean paste is a grievance for one year.�
�The good-for-nothing daughter-in-law gets sick on the day of ancestral sacrifice.�
�A son-in-law is a guest for 100 years; a daughter-in-law is an eating mouth �til the day she dies.�

How about this one:

A woman only needs to be nice to three people in her lifetime: first her father, second her husband and finally her son.

Three things get better when you beat them -- a dog, a woman, and a walnut tree.

There was another one I heard that went along the lines of women and dried pollack (fish) should be beaten once a week. Anyone else heard this?
