i thought that the end was sort of contrary to the themes of the of play and the resolution of the story, in that the men just ended up making peace (the woman) just another object and dividing her up. the rest of the final part of the play, the feast and all, seemed to be all about redemtion, forgiveness, peace, and unity, but then Aristophanes just throws that other bit. perhaps he's just suggesting that the men only gave in because of their thoughtless obedience of their desires, and not becuase they actually wanted peace.
