According to Hall the experience of time "varies
in detail from class to class, by occupation, and
sex and age within our own culture." (Hall, 1984:
133) Thus its perception is highly subjective.
While some people may experience time as running
very fast at the same time others can feel it

of time can be felt in human personal experience
and observed in the environment. Strange as it as,
people are aware of time at the same time not

Athenian woman agreeable. Athenian women spent
most of their lives indoors doing mostly domestic
activities. But if you are an independent type of
lady, who enjoys exercise, not overly modest, and
do not mind sharing your bed with more than one
man, then you would probably enjoy the life of a
Spartan woman. The basic similarity between the
lives of the women...
