What are ur guys opinion on why Lys. is the leader of this oath and not another women? i feel as though Lys. is a very mature women when it comes to talking to other strong people. for example when she was talking to Kinesias she stays calm and relaxed because she has the type of confidence that creates a great leader. She has the intelligence to out smart someone smarter than her because she is soo strategic. well in my opinion at least. Also she is the only one who stands up and say WE CAN DO THIS and persuades other women to join in with her oath of abstinence.

some people are natural born leaders, regardless of race, gender, class, culture, background...w/e.
Lysistrata just seems like the type to lead, while the other women follow. this could be the reason that the uprising hadn't happened until then...some of the women may have been content in following their husbands instead of walking next to them...
I agree. Personally, I admire
Lysistrata's leadership. She is
potentially the rarest thing ever:
a benevolent dictator. She's capable of keeping everybody unified, yet does not intimidate her own women. She's both strategic and charismatic.
yea thats wut im saying...it seems as though she has this huge plan in her head that is strategically amazing and the thing is she knows it and isnt afraid to share it..which makes her likable to everyone
WEll, i think that the way that her husband isnt barely mentioned says it all. She did not let her husband nor anyone's husband for that matter, get in the way of her goal to save Greece. she stood up for what she believed in and she knew abstinence would get her to reach her goal, so she took the risk. I wish more people would do that in the U.S.....I mena... can SOMEONE save us...PLEASE!!! Obama, hopefully u can make some changes for the better....take advice from Lysistrata.... she knew what she was doing :)
