What rights held by women in Sparta that women in Athens didn't have?

Spartan Women overall had a lot more rights, rather then the Athenian Women. The Spartan women could sell property, own small businesses, chat with other men (whom they are not related too), wear shorter dresses, and go around the city by themselves. The only thing they couldn't do was hold office, and vote. The reason why they could do all of these things is, because in Sparta the woman didn't spend as much time with their husband since they were always training for the next war. Rather then the Athenian men, they had much more time to socialize so they mentored the woman a lot more.

What was one way that Athens was more democratic than Sparta?

Sparta had a limited democracy where its citizens voted in assembly on matters put before them by the council. Athens had a radical democracy where the citizens in assembly raised, discussed and voted on matters and the council implemented it. Athens could afford this as it was living on the proceeds of its empire. When it lost its empire, it also scaled back its democracy, as the people had been misled by politicians into wars, and without the empire to pay, it could not afford the extravagences used to keep the citizens in the style they wanted to award themselves.
