The Roman women were much more free than the Greek women. The Greek wives stayed home and had their own quarters in the house. They were allowed to go out, but they were always escorted, as only prostitutes and women of the lowest class were seen on the streets alone. They rarely, if ever, attended dinners with their husbands. This may seem like imprisonment to us, but the Greek ladies didn't seem to mind because it was their culture and their custom.
The Roman women, in contrast, went out and about just as present day women. They had the right to own property, they accompanied their husbands to public affairs and in fact, one of their roles was to promote their husband's interests. They were better educated and could discuss philosophy or politics with the men. Of course, living in an acient society, they were not as "liberated" as today's woman. They still had certain gender restrictions. They could not vote. They had to have a man present certain legal actions before a praetor, and they had to have a guardian, which was a male who was suposed to look after her interests. However this was nothing but a sham, as Roman women were free to choose their own guardians and change them at any time.
In Roman society women were always considered the lowest of the classes even lower than the slaves.

Definitely yes. The Roman women did not need their husband's permission to leave the house and were present at dinners and public events. They could own a business and they could own property. They could free slaves and make a will. Roman women could be socially and even politically (behind the scenes) active whereas the Athenian women were mostly confined to their own wing of their house and domestic duties.Definitely yes.

Because of their culture.
During the Roman republic women were treated according to the customs of the times. Roman women were not repressed. True, they could not join the army, run for a public office or vote, but such things were not part of a Roman woman's ambition as it may be of a modern woman's. A Roman woman was respected as long as she acted respectfully and fulfilled her role in society. Roman women could also own businesses and manage their own financial affairs even though they were required to have a token "guardian", and they could make a will and designate heirs.
he status of the Napalese women in the society is playing second fiddle to men. This can be improved by empowering them through education.
Their primary role in society was that of wives and mothers. Athenian women, by contrast, were never heiresses.
Athens was specialized in intelligence and Sparta was tough. Women were taught how to throw darts, and run. Athenian women stayed ar home.
In Roman society women were always considered the lowest of the classes even lower than the slaves.

They didn't
Athenian women were not allowed to do anything that the men could do. They had quiet lives and mostly stayed at home. While in ancient Spartan women could mostly anything the men could do. hope this helped!
Spartan women had more rights and freedoms than Athenian women. Spartan women were educated, could own property, and participate in sports, while Athenian women had limited rights and were mostly confined to the home as wives and mothers.
The status of the Nepalese women is that they play second fiddle to men because of tradition. This can be improved by empowering them through education.
