They should not talk about females, commenting on their good and bad qualities etc. Narad has said, ‘Tyagis who observe Brahmcharya Vrata should never talk about women, as sense organs which are not kept under control (enjoying sensual pleasures) degrade even an ascetic.’ In this way they should not listen to such talks also.
It is further explained, ‘Kama (lust) is Bandhan (bondage). In this world there is no other bondage. Those that become free from the clutches of lust become eligible for attaining God. In this way, those that know of the tendencies of lust and the bondage caused by lust become free from suffering.’ Therefore they should not also bathe in places frequented by women (Nor should they go to such places for answering the call of nature). The reason being is that such places will cause the mind to wander upon women. Thus such places should always be avoided.
