A while ago, there was a (PBS?) history show on the Spartans. The narrator (attractive English lady history prof) talked about how the women competed in the same sports and training as the men. Spartan women (to a large extent) were considered more attractive than the other (softer, sedentary) Greek women. She also pointed out that "Helen of Troy" was originally "Helen of Sparta".
Which way to Sparta? :laugh2:
The actress that played Helen in the most recent version of the movie "Troy" with Brad Pitt was the size of a toothpick.
