Womens in athens and sparta

How did woman roles in society differ from the Athens and Sparta ???

Athen womens:

The womens in athens had to have a guardian but it ahd to be a male guardian the male guardians conrolled parctially the whole life the only freedom that they had was they had only the privilage to have clothes jewerly and personal slave they could not purchase any inexpensive items .and if they were on the streets walking they would be considerahys a prosstittutes that was if they could get out of the house. anthens womens would get married in young ages and they were not allowed to choose their education.

sparta womens : Well Sparta womens they had way some more freedom than the Athen womens because they could walk on the streets alone and they will not consider them as prostittutes and also they had the chance to raise there own children and Sparta womens we married not young .

If the greeks are consider sow andvanced ,so culturally Ellite ,why do you believe gender equality (equality between man and women) was not established ??

In the athens the men were always at home thats why they dindnt really need the wife as much as the spartas because the men in sparta they would not stay home as much sow they had the women sow they could take care of the children and tyo make more money .

Based on your understanding of woman in ancient Greek society , how do you think women where depicted by artist at the time ??

I think that women should be painted of what they did not being naked i think they should be painted being a house keeper.
