A woman's place is in the home as a mother.
The Cult of Domesticity promoted a specific version of femininity that they claimed all "real" women should have. This involved staying in the domestic sphere and caring for the household and children, honoring and obeying their husband and God, and making their home comfortable for the men. The Cult of Domesticity also excluded those who were not white or middle/upper class.
