· Wifehood and motherhood were regarded as women's most significant professions.

· Other woman worked as prostitutes

· Women were considered naturally weaker than men, squeamish, and unable to perform work requiring muscular or intellectual development.

· An unmarried woman could own property, make a contract, or sue and be sued.
