What were the advantages and disadvantages of being a citizen woman in ancient Athens?
Andreamontesss
Women in Athens were not citizens - citizens were males 18 and over who could prove their Athenian ancestry.
Women were kept in the home in virtual purdah, bearing and raising children, tending the house, vegetable garden, chickens etc, getting out only for an occasional women's religious festival.
