Oh, marital rape. What a hero.

The whole range of women: mothers, flirts and scolds.

Women have to be given the task of raising the kid, but then they must be deemed incompetent because they are womanly and overprotective.

You need to have a woman in the party to have someone to complain and have no sense of humour or fun.

Sharp-tongued women don't get to choose whether or not they need male protectors.

Bad people are dirty and smelly, with few social graces.

Women are nags and scolds.

Coquettish girls who lead boys into trouble get lectures.

Chapter 1 has been divided between Polgara being a cook, and Garion's 3 little friends. Two boys and the minxish little girl who bosses them around and gets them into trouble.

We start off with a rather dull history of gods prologue, and features women either getting to be wives or exceptional unlike all other women.
