Today, women occupy all types of responsibilities and professions, but it hasn't always been like this, until some years ago they couldn't study, work or even vote, for example. In 'Sexo Alegal', the investigator Carmelo Arribas affirms that, according to Roman law, women were prohibited from practising law and recalls that many were tossed into bonfires, accused of witchcraft when in fact they were herbalists.
