Viking women got the same rights, but slave women weren't, think of it kind of like the spartan society. Women and men of lower classes were treated differently and sexist, but the elite top branch of society got pretty much equal treatment with some minor differences.

Husky if you want topics about women in warfare you can always check the anti-air batteries during the battle of Stalingrad, one of the things women were extremly proficient in doing was accurate target shooting with heavy caliber batteries.

I am not denying the partecipation of women in warfare, they occupied many positions and you had Byzantine princesses that did write about military treaties or figures like the Maid of Orleans. Women till the introduction of gunpowder had a very limited role in warfare, should we avoid talking about it then? Of course not, I had the pleasure to briefly watch a call for papers in my Uni about that topic and there is much to study about women and warfare.

Different cultures have different aproaches to the inclusion of women in combat roles, it was the evolution of warfare that allowed a bigger inclusion of women in wars.

i am saying that their participation was practically insignificant and women in battle were primarily a thing in folklore/tales

The amount of stupid shit I heard grads in European Studies say is enough for me to understand how nowadays a grad alone is nothing.
