The women challenge the masculine role in Lysistrata to preserve
the traditional way of life of the community. When the
women become challenged themselves, they take on the
masculine characteristics and attitudes and defeat the men
physically, mentally but most of all strategically. Proving
that neither side benefits from it, just that one side
loses more than the other side.

wat the women did was quite strategic. they forced the men to compromise with them and come to peace. but, if it weren't for the likes of Lysistrata, this plan would not hav even taken place. all of wat happen was due to her. although no one really gained in the end, at least peace came about amongst everyone.
Yea I agree with you nehemiah because without Lysistrata the other women would have not been able to remain abstinent. Lysistrata is the one who first takes the masculine role and gains respect among men. However with Lysistrata the women were successful because they were able to compromise with the men and end the war.
