Characters Part 2

On the otherside of the gender pool or gender spectrum if you will there is our main man the commissioner. This guy deserves almost as much credit as Lysistrata does for 2 main reasons. The first reason is that he is representing the other men and doing his best to put the protest down and at the same time keep the women happy. The second reason is that he is a good sport about being humiliated by the women but getting a veil put on his head and also because in the end he begins to see the womens point and asks questions. Also he helps to reach a peace agreement with the women so the Abstinance Plan can end but also so that he can help to ensure that the strike won't occur again. Whether this will be successful or not, I believe that when we left the play the situation was looking good between the men and the women.
