Betrayed once by an adulterous wife, the king in A Thousands and One Nights vowed never to be betrayed again by a woman. He knew from his own and his brother’s experience that danger and hurt arise from intimacy with the women- the danger of dishonor, the hurt of betrayal, the pain of humiliation by deceit. Feeling defenseless against the pains caused by women, the king devises he only viable alternative he can think of. Unwilling to take the risk of intimacy with anyone who has the power to hurt him, King Shahriyar chooses aggression and destruction. By framing his urge for union in separation, he marries a virgin every night and has her murdered in the morning. Thus, he never allows women the chance to deceive him. To him, only a dead wife makes a loyal wife. tvs.se
