Question

Is women and men raised for toughness a characteristic of Athens, Sparta, or both? A. Athens B. Sparta C. Athens and Sparta.

Answer 1

I would go with Sparta (C), as women in Athens were not particularly respected and not allowed to do much else than housework.

Answer 2

Look, I' m from Greece and I live there too. So we study about our history. As far as your question I want you to know that I think that the right answer is B) Sparta
On the one hand in Sparta both women and men were considered to be important. Men were going in a camp since they were 7 years old. Women were only in Sparta highly regarded. They were thought to be holy because they bore strong boys who one day became soldiers . On the other hand in Athens women had got no rights. They were unimportant and they spent their lifes only in homes.
