“Hate is a bottomless cup; I will pour and pour” 

my favourite gender is women who practice witchcraft that have been wronged by men and decide to take revenge

I loved reading this for class!
Looking at it from a modern point of view it's strange how differently we would perceive it in comparison to the ancient greek audience. I really enjoy the incite it gave to how women were expected to act in the ancient world, as well as the present Xenophobia and elitism felt by the greeks to non greek speakers.
Spoiler"i married you" really hits when you understand the context
