I was discussing this with my daughter and she claimed that prior to "Don Giovanni" the woman was usually the one portrayed as a seductress/manipulator who ended up being punished for her actions. Of course in Mozart's opera Don Juan gets carried to hell as punishment for his lifestyle of seduction and sexual exploitation of women.
My reply to her was "Well, uh. . . "
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
