There are strong female characters at Hogwarts, but equality does
not seem to carry over to Voldemort's side. Where are all the strong
evil women? When Harry is with the Death Eaters near the end of GOF,
all the Death Eaters he sees are men. Voldemort mentions the
Lestranges are in Azkaban, and someone has told Harry earlier that
the
Lestranges are a married couple, but Mrs.L seems to be the only woman
in Voldemort's inner circle. Draco's mother appears to support the
dark arts, she is married to Lucius, and she must realize there are
valuable Dark Arts items hidden under their drawing-room floor. But
she evidently does not have the dark mark. Maybe Mrs. Malfoy does not
support the Dark Arts, but some of the women must. I am not pro-Voldy
but I just find this odd. Is Voldy sexist as well as generally evil?
