Preferred term

women's networks  

Definition

  • Women faced several challenges in building social networks prior to the Industrial Revolution in the United States, and long-held conceptions of women's proper place in society proved to be the key challenge. While men held domain in the public sphere—or places such as town squares, meetinghouses, streets, and anywhere else outside the home—women belonged in the private sphere, in their homes or the homes of other family members.
