Women in Classical Athens
[edit]- ... that in Classical Athens, being discussed in public was a source of shame for women?
- ALT1:... that despite mentioning her in five of his speeches, Demosthenes never spoke his mother's name?
- ALT2:... that Solon was credited with having established state-run brothels, staffed by slaves, in Classical Athens?

for all 3, though I don't like ALT1 (somewhat misleading unless you know the first hook, & surely modern politicians also just say "my mother"?). Recent GA, all 3 hooks check out. Nice article, though 1 image only shows men (see talk). Earwig picks up nothing. Johnbod (talk) 19:52, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
