Answer:

Women were respected because they helped create and sustain the world.

Explanation:

"The World on Turtle's Back" is a creation myth or legend from the Iroquois people's belief. According to them, a woman gave birth to twins and while pregnant, she "<em>placed the dirt on Turtle's back and performed a ritual to create the earth</em>". This creation myth alone makes them revere the image of the female gender, added to the creation (giving birth) to children, which is not possible for men. This ability to give life also add to the importance of women in their community. The pain and sacrifice that women went through to give birth, their role as carers and providers of food in the home all add to this high valuation of women in the Iroquois society/ community.They were respected for their ability to endure the pain of childbirth and sustaining the world.
