Gee I dunno I guess I like to think Democracy like all things has evolved with the times especially that length of time. 400B.C. was quite a while back ago. I'm sure "democracy's" meaning varies from place to place and yet demoting women to being the sex slaves of their husbands seems just a tab bit archaic even for me.
Maybe you do not place enough value on the label
And really in my mind this goes well beyond just democracy and is really more of a human rights issue.
