Behind Every Great Man Is A Great Woman

Lysistrata really demonstrates this throughout the play. The men when the women would just sit at home and agree with what the men said, it led to war between the states. However, as soon as the women step out from their subservient spot in the house, they immediately begin to fix what the men have broken. Without the women to help guide them, it seems likely that the war would have continued.

While I agree with this in the context of the play, I don't think that this applies today in the US. There are many men in the US who are single or not involved with a woman. Men who are independent from any woman can still be just as great as a man supported by another woman.
