Featured review
They got some things right
They got some things right in this episode especially about the ancient Athens and Athenians.
These parts in the episode are completely true: Athenian women were not allowed to go outside the home unchaperoned, and to vote, and to watch the Olympic Games, and to become actors (thespians) in theater.
Some extra info, then, by yours truly: Athenian women were not allowed to go outside unchaperoned, if they did, they would be considered promiscuous, and men were allowed to approach them for some contemporary activities. Also, they were not allowed to get any formal education other than housework. They were not allowed to talk to their husband directly in public and in front of other men. They were not allowed to get a job, and to get inheritance.
