Women in the Middle Ages

Women in the Middle Ages are different from women in this present age. Women had different roles in soceity than women do now. The role of women in society depended on what part of society you were in. There were two major groups of people the nobles and the peasants. The nobles and the peasants did many of the same things. Nobles would take care of their kids and also had a lot more respect than peaasants. Peasants took care of their children and their homes and sometimes even worked a job. If they worked a job they would be paid less than a man would be paid. Women in the Middle Ages faced different challenges than women in the present age do. One of the main challenges was men were dominate. Which means that they controlled what women did, how they did it, and when they did it. I learned a lot about women that I didn't know and I hope you did too.
