Perhaps, I don't know maybe .
In 1600s England, marriage was primarily viewed as a social contract rather than a romantic union, serving to strengthen family ties and secure economic stability. It was often arranged by families, emphasizing social class and property considerations over personal affection. Women had limited rights within marriage, and their roles were largely defined by domestic responsibilities. The institution of marriage was also influenced by religious beliefs, with the Church promoting the sanctity of the union and the procreation of children.
the average amount of children a colonial woman had in the 1600s is 9 children
In the 1600s, women often used various materials as pads during menstruation, including rags, sheep's wool, or soft linen cloths. These items were typically washed and reused. Some women also utilized moss or other natural materials for absorbency. The concept of disposable sanitary products did not exist at that time.
The Church provided education, medical attention, and security in its monasteries. It also advocated for the poor and weak, for the homeless, for children, and for women.
30 Years War. Counter Reformation. Are we counting things like sailing-off to the New World? Here are a couple of nice little time-lines for you. Women? ::shakes her head:: I see some claims that their situation was much improved, but unless my memory plays me false, we are also talking about the puritans, Calvanists, and other "right-wing" sects of the Protestant church. My understanding is that they didn't grant women any rights. They had the right to belong to a male and pray to God that that male cared for her, protected her, and provided for her. There were apparently a good many business owners in London who were female. Hope this helps get you started.
As I type, women can't be bishops (or of higher rank) in the church of England or a priest or above in the Catholic church. There are also some roles in the armed services (close combat or submariners, for example) that aren't available to women.

Yes, since 1994, women can be ordained as priests in the CofE. The church is slowly moving towards allowing women to be bishops. The church had to be specifically excluded from sex descrimination legislation to allow such practises to continue.

Women were allowed to be ordained as priests in the Anglican Church starting in 1994, when the first women were officially ordained in the Church of England. In the Roman Catholic Church, however, women have not been allowed to be ordained as priests, and this remains unchanged as of now. Other denominations, like the United Methodist Church and the Episcopal Church, also allow women to serve as priests and ministers, with varying timelines for their ordination.
women wore long brown dresses and men wore shirts with breeches(short trousers) and jerkin(waist coat)
The roman catholic church did this because they felt it was right
