Was I actually in the wrong? If my course is going to be femminised bullshit
(inb4 liberal arts meme degree, I expected a proffessor whom i'd imagine read the classics would have had less faggotry)
I really want to be an archivist or a curator, but fuck me maybe I should just drop it all.

So they're denying the influence a woman has over a man? How retarded can they get?

their premise is that "the ancients were good and all blah blah" but that they were shit since they didn't support true equality.
It's absolute unchallenging twaddle and I don't want to waste 3 years of my youth if im going to get in debt with a worthless degree, especially if all the professor's children/0.001% of indian turboautists (still enough to saturate the UK's market) have taken all the good related jobs

Ancient Greek women were often beaten and brutalized for speaking out of turn. Sure, some had influence. But most women in those times were heavily subjugated, as you would know if you paid attention in class.
You'd make a piss-poor archivist if you think Greek women had it good.
