The ideal Roman wife was supposed to weave cloth, run the household, provide her husband with children, sons to become his heirs and daughters to raise the family's status by a good marriage, educate those children and be totally loyal to her husband. She was supposed to entertain his friends and their wives, and help in selecting marriage partners for the children, and be capable of attending to his business interests when he was away from the city. She was supposed to be willing to obey him in all things and not spend money frivolously. These were characteristics of the ideal Roman wife. The reality, needless to say, was very different.
