women in al-andalus


creo que las mujeres aunque todavía sigue pasando lo mismo, pero antes yo creo que antes se
aporvechaba mucho de ellas las explotaban etc...

las trataban como inferiores.
Estas tambien tenian muy poco poder politico.
estas siempre solian casarse y sino iba al monasterio a hacerse monjas.
Yo creo qu se habusaban demasiado de ellas ya que no merecian.
