Of course they were allowed to mix with males. The women in ancient Rome ran the household. Don't confuse the Roman women with the Greek women who were isolated in their homes.

How did the attitudes toward women change over the course of roman history?

In the beginning, the Roman attitude toward women's roles in society was much like that of the Greeks. Roman males believed that the weakness of females made it necessary for women to have male guardians. The paterfamilias, or male head of the household, had the responsibility for guardianship. Fathers also arranged the marriages of their daughters. By the second century A.D., the paterfamilias no longer had absolute authority over his children, and the husband's absolute authority over his wife also disappeared. By the late second century, women were no longer required to have guardians. Upper-class Roman women had considerable freedom and independence. They had the right to own, inherit, and sell property. They were not segregated from males in the home, like Greek wives. Rather, they were appreciated as enjoyable company and were at the center of household social life. Outside their homes, upper-class women could attend races, the theater, and events in the amphitheater. In the latter two places, however, they were forced to sit in separate female sections. Women could not participate in politics, but a number of important women influenced politics through their husbands.
