Myrrhine
I think Myrrhine is one of the strongest/smartest women who are part of the protest. When I was first reading about Myrrhine when she was with Kinesias and she made it seem like she was going to give into him and break her vow to Lysistrata and the other women, I thought she was kind of stupid and I was upset with her character. When I realized that she was just prolonging her husband by tempting him more and more as she kept leaving and coming back I laughed. I really like her character and I think she plays a major part in how the book came to a close. Kinesias seemed to be a major character in how the men decided if they were going to give in or not to the women, and if Myrrhine had given in, I dont believe the book would have ended the same way.
