Buddha on an ideal wife

Source @TrueIndology

"
...Buddha listed Dasibhariya or slave-wife (who obediently receives beatings from Husband) as best wife...

This teaching of Buddha comes from Angutttara Nikaya (7.59). He says "A wife who remains calm when threatened with rod and submits to her husband's will will go to svarga('heaven')".
