Answer - C - In ancient Greek society, women were inferior to men, in both political and social matters.
Key Takeaway: It is somewhat ironic that the great founder of democracy-the ancient Greek culture-treated women as inferiors. In Greece, only free, land owning, native-born men could be citizens entitled to the full protection of the law in a city-state. In most city-states, unlike Rome, social prominence did not allow special rights. Even in places like Sparta, where women had more rights than most others, they were never actually equal to men. Men, on the other hand, were all given the title of equal if they finished their education.
