The lives of Athenian women were similar to the lives of other Greek women in the following ways:
- They had to obey their fathers and husbands.
- They did not take part in politics.
The options "They were able to inherit property" and "They were required to exercise to bear strong children" do not generally apply to the majority of women in ancient Greece, including Athenian women. In most cases, women did not have the right to inherit property, and while some Greek societies placed emphasis on physical fitness for women, this was not a universal requirement.
