    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?
