Clarke's Proverbs 7:11 Bible Commentary

She is loud and stubborn - המיה homiyah, she is never at rest, always agitated; busily employed to gain her end, and this is to go into the path of error: סררת sorereth, "turning aside;" preferring any way to the right way. And, therefore, it is added, her feet abide not in her house, she gads abroad; and this disposition probably first led her to this vice.

Barnes's Proverbs 7:11 Bible Commentary

Loud and stubborn - Both words describe the half-animal signs of a vicious nature. Compare Hosea 4:16.
