"A good wife should be the mistress of her home, having under her care all that is within it, according to the rules we have laid down. She should allow none to enter without her husband's knowledge She must exercise control of the money spent on such festivities as her husband has approved- keeping, moreover, within the limit set by law upon expenditure, dress, and ornament- and remembering that beauty depends not on costliness of raiment (L)et it be her aim to obey her husband; giving no heed to public affairs, nor having any part in arranging the marriages of her children. Rather, when the time shall come to give or receive in marriage sons or daughters, let her then hearken to her husband in all respects, and agreeing with him obey his wishes. It is fitting that a woman of a well-ordered life should consider that her husband's wishes are as laws appointed for her by divine will, along with the marriage state and the fortune she shares." - Aristotle, "On a Good Wife," c. 330 BCE This passage would MOST likely be describing A) women in Athens. B) women in Sparta. C) Persian views of women. D) requirements of slave women.
