2 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 6, Ch. 6
saijanayam dsa—begot; duhitrfh—daughters; pitr-vatsalah—all very
affectionate to their father.
TRANSLATION

Sri Sukadeva Gosvami said: My dear King, thereafter, at the
request of Lord Brahma, Prajapati Daksa, who is known as
Pracetasa, begot sixty daughters in the womb of his wife Asikni.
All the daughters were very affectionate toward their father.

PURPORT

After the incidents concerning the loss of his many sons, Daksa
repented his misunderstanding with Narada Muni. Lord Brahma then
saw Daksa and instructed him to beget children again. This time Daksa
was very cautious to beget female children instead of male children so
that Narada Muni would not disturb them by urging them to accept the
renounced order. Females are not meant for the renounced order of life;
they should be faithful to their good husbands, for if a husband is
competent for liberation, his wife will also achieve liberation with him.
As stated in the Sdstra, the results of a husband’s pious activities are
shared by his wife. Therefore a woman’s duty is to be very chaste and
faithful to her husband. Then without separate endeavor she will share
in all the profit the husband earns.
