Spartan women didn't go into battle. Maybe you're thinking of the (mythical) Amazons.

No, Spartan soldiers were all men. You sound like you are confusing Sparta with Crete.
In crete women used to wear a kind of vest that exposed their breasts, but they were not warriors.

That's the rumour - I wasn't there, so can't say for certain. But think about it - the enemies would have been distracted and it wouldn't have been that difficult to win a battle.
