Why not post something specific that supports your position. Like I said, I know of no major society where women had equal rights with men until about 125 years ago when humans in general become much more educated which was facilitated when societies implemented categorical public education.

Surely you can find one major society to prove I am wrong, if I am so wrong.

The reason I pound on these subjects is simply because history for too many people is a myth e.g. we humans were horribly barbaric until modern science and education became widespread.

And religion did nothing to advance democracy or ethics. It was science and education that is the foundation for modern civilization, not religion as most believe.

Who is this Hurstwic? Sounds like some alt-right group. Maybe I was off by 50 years? Maybe it was 1100?

Most recent thinking is that Vikings were also women in combat and also led raids.
