The answer to your question is another of those "yes and no" answers. The parents of a girl would pick out a potential groom, or even a list of potential grooms. The girl would have to give her consent. However, in the Roman culture, children were brought up to respect the wishes of their parents, so the girl would nearly always consent to the man her parents suggested for her husband. However there were times when a woman/girl would pick out her own husband and her parents would go along with it. Remember, Roman marriages were not just the uniting of a man and wife, but the uniting of entire families, especially in the upper classes, so this factor had a bearing upon the choices a woman had for a husband.

Geoffrey Chaucer is the ancient roman author who said men should marry women their own age.
In Ancient Rome, the legal age for men to marry was typically 14 years old, while women could marry as early as 12. However, it was common for women to marry in their mid to late teens. These ages were set by Roman law, but social customs often influenced the actual age at which individuals married.
yes they do they marry their cousins == == yes they do they marry their cousins == ==
No women were allowed to "vote" in the Roman Empire
In Roman society women were always considered the lowest of the classes even lower than the slaves.

Where do you find them anyway? :)
No, but there were women with the Roman Army. Officers, centurions, and some soldiers were allowed to marry, and there were also women who stayed in the army camps and followed them on the march.... for various reasons.
Roman women wore robes, sandals, and kept their hair up with combs and sticks. As for how they acted, that was up to their husband because they had to do eveyhting they were told to do.
The women in Sparta had more freedom than women in Athens because Spartan women were allowed to buy properties when their husbands had gone to war meanwhile women in Athens could not, Spartan women were allowed to choose whom to marry and they were given education and Athenian women were not not allowed to choose who to marry, their parents did, the Athenian women were not given education except life in home
The Roman goddess Minerva did not marry. She was a virgin goddess.

It would depend on the woman and the time. For most of the Roman republic, a woman would simply be a social misfit if she chose not to marry. Marriage was considered mandatory for both men and women for various reasons. During the principate Augustus made marriage for both men and women mandatory by law. This was to try to repopulate the Roman people, whose numbers had been decimated by the years of civil wars. If a woman or man did not marry, they were cut off from any inheritance. These rules did not apply to the Vestal virgins who were free to marry or not after their term of service was ended.It would depend on the woman and the time.
