Arddra knew what life was like for a woman up north and she always did do what was expected of her as first a young woman then a wife. She listened to Casa lay out what was expected for women of the Weyr. "It doesn't sound all that different than what is expected of women in the Holds. We just focus on one person, our spouse. We maintain the home, and rear children. At least here there is the chance of becoming a dragonrider, whether gold or green."
"I do not see why any female dragonrider cannot fly as often as any man. It's not like we are the one's doing the actual flying, it would be the dragon. In fact most women are so much more lighter than a man I expect the smaller dragons appreciate a woman rider more than a burly man who could weight twice as much as we do, or more." Arddra expected things would be much different during actual Threadfall if it ever returns. She certainly hoped it didn't return anytime in her lifetime. She doubted there was enough dragons to deal with the threat of a time long gone now.
"I only reason I can see it not being good to have a woman flying her dragon is if the dragon was heavy with eggs." Arddra wanted to Impress a gold dragon, otherwise she didn't have much hope on her future here.
"This isn't the best spot to teach you how to dress pretty and be more faminine but we can at least pick out a skirt or dress that will fit. Later we can meet at my room in the Candidates Barracks where we can focus on girl stuff and not be disturbed."
