Athenian Democracy By:Nicole

To say that Athenian Democracy was fair you would not be correct nor wrong example. To be a citizen you had to born in Athens and so did your Father and Mother to be able to vote and get treated fairly bit if you were a woman and you were born in Athens and so were your parents you would not be able to vote and if you married your husband would decide who you would be seen by so to not get seen by any one you would your tunic over you face. The message being sent out is your husband owns you and he is in charge of you. If you were a slave you were not able to vote because if you were a slave you were usually taken slave in war so you most likely wouldn’t be born in Athens and you r parent wouldn’t either and you would be sent to camps that would have full watch over you all the time. And that’s why Athenian Democracy is not fair it might be for men who were born in Athens and your parents but it was not fair to women our slaves.
