Are British Queens better rulers than Kings?

In British history female monarchs seem to be better rulers, for example Elizabeth the 1 Queen Victoria Elizabeth the 2nd, queen Elizabeth has said to be one of our best monarchs, and same for queen Victoria, queen Victoria left the throne far more powerful than when she became queen, this may be because women are better listeners, or a motherly instinct comes into it, mothering her kingdom and subjects, whereas a male has been programmed to be greedy, to be power hungry, to want the most land most troop etc, take lions for example the male always wants to increase his territory, and the size of his pride, he is not concerned about his Liones's unless another male wants to move in and mate with them, it's the female who nurtures and mothers, who educates the young, this is just my theory that a female monarch is far more suited than an aggressive male, this obviously not true in everycase just my opinion, maybe that's why a king and a queen is better as their is both sides of the coin...

How old was Jane Seymour when she died in childbirth?

It is unclear when Jane Seymour was born. But most historians believe it was around 1507-1509. Which would of made her at the time of her death on 24th October 1537, either 30, 29 or 28. Most people think 1508 for her birthdate, but that would make her born the same year as her brother, which seems unlikely. 1507 as well seems unlikely for her brother's were older than her. So i believe she was born in 1509 and she died at the young age of 28.

Who had the red rose in the battle of bosworth?

Well, I don't know if this is the answer you are looking for, but Richard III was the Yorkist claimant to the throne and therefore the "White Rose". Henry Tudor was the last tangible Lancastrian claimant, seeing as his mother, Margaret Beaufort, was descended from John of Gaunt, a son of Edward III, also the father of Henry IV, the first Lancastrian. The Beaufort's descended from John of Gaunts third marriage to Katherine Swynford and were barred from the throne. However, on the extinction of the male line of the House of Lancaster with Henry VI's murder, Henry VII was the Lancastrian claimant and therefore the "Red Rose"

Can a princess wear crown jewels?

The term "crown jewels" is usually used to mean not merely that jewelry owned by "the crown" ... that is, the reigning monarch... but specifically the ornaments and regalia used in the actual coronation ceremony, which may be of significant historical value and kept locked away at all other times.

In that sense, a princess regnant... that is, the female ruler of a principality... would wear the crown jewels exactly once, on the occasion of her coronation. She could, presumably, wear them at other times if she wanted to, but probably would not as it would likely go against tradition.

A princess of a kingdom (not the monarch, but, for example, the daughter or granddaughter of the monarch) would not wear the crown jewels, unless she was in the process of being crowned Queen Regnant at the time.

If you take "crown jewels" to mean simply "jewelry owned by the crown", then it's up to the sovereign who gets to wear what. It's possible that a princess might be allowed to wear certain pieces but not others. An analogous situation might be your mother being perfectly okay with letting you borrow her pearls for prom night, but isn't going to let you wear her wedding ring no matter what the occasion is.
