Women In Ancient Greece

I think that women in Sparta had it allot easier than women in Greece. Both countries where only using women for reproduction but spartan women did have more rights than Greek women. Spartan womens parents usually arranged the wedding, and the age they were supposed to get married at was 18. Women in Sparta also are aloud to own property, dress freely, and get a good mental and physical eduction. Women in Greece who were married had to obey there husbands order, they wern't aloud to leave the house or meat any male inside the house unless supervised by their husband. The reason why I think that Spartan Women and Greek women are so different is because Greek women were supposed to populate and raise there kids until marrying age. Spartan mothers where to raise healthy and strong kids untill the kids are seven and forced to live and serve in the spartan military. i think that since Spartan mothers didn't have so much responsibility they did not need to be kept under such strict rules.

I think that role of womens freedom had no affect on how advanced there country was. I think that there creations and discoveries could have been created by men and men only. Since women have liberty these days it makes are coubtrie allot more advanced than ancient Greece.
