Best Answer

Women were generally married around the age of thirteen or fourteen. If they weren't married before 25, it was humiliating within their social spheres and they would be considered 'spinsters'. Women who were widowed were encouraged to remarry as soon as possible. Mostly because marriage wasn't usually a romantic attachment, more of convenience or for benefits of the economic sort.
