Better than any of the other Greek women.They had to go through physical education,and were in charge of the house,had more freedom in speech than any other women in Greece,and could stand up,speak and even disagree with male Spartans,which was unheard of in ancient world.
For that time it was revolutionary but they acted as modern women do,nothing revolutionary..While other women in other cities acted in a way no modern women would,like slaves.
