Sparta’s society values and our 21st century values have not changed very much. Obsessed with genetic perfection, keeping others silenced, and having social order was common then and now.
In Spartan society you have to be the perfect specimen you were thrown out like yesterday’s garbage. As teenagers they are thrown into the wild to fend for themselves and learn how to be a man. In order to be a “real” man you need Taylor Lautner’s abs, SHOUT EVERYTHING HE SAYS, and make everything he does EXTREME!!! RAWR!!! The Persian society didn’t really define what a man was, except for being ruled by Lady Gaga.
Taylor Lautner's Abs
The king and Lady Gaga
Our women can fight as well as our men, Spartan women give birth to real Spartan men, they contribute to society and by the way they cannot speak in public and only one is really featured in the entire movie. So women are not valued members of society except TO KEEP THE ARMY ALIVE!!! RAWR!!!! When the queen is not having sex, she makes witty comments and then stabs people.
If you are deformed then go to Persia where Angelina Jolie will adopt the deformed and turn them into little monsters. Seriously, turned into monsters; the large giant pig with razor hands, darth vader, the jabberwocky dance crew, the gray hulk. According to the Spartans if you have any deformations you are cast out of society and thought that you can’t do anything.
People are comfortable where they are. People don’t like it when social order is disturbed. The order goes like this, Oracle, Strange minion things, Council, King, Men, Boys, Queen, Women, Servants, others, disabilities. The king couldn’t act without consulting the strange minions and the oracle. Then when he went against them, the council said he had to get their approval. The council didn’t even want to listen to the Queen.
Honestly I think the video explains everything the best.

Ha! I love this entry...well said. A pleasure to read, and I think you and I are on the same page. The best is comparing Xerxes to Lady Gaga. classic.....
