Why did Lysistrata bring the girl Peace along when meeting with the Spartans and Athenians?
I think it was to distract the men but also keep them focused at the same time. as crazy as that may sound, i think it might have worked. The men were after Peace, not the concept. but if Peace were not there, the men might not have wanted to compromise to get peace. This pun is almost too perfect to explain.
Peace might also have distracted the men from what they actually wanted to compromise for. The men were desperate for sex and they agreed to everything. So Lysistrata distracted them to keep them focused.

That's really symbolic. Peace=sex. It just really disturbed me that she was uber young and Kinesias was ultra perverted.
