1. **Expected Roles**: Roman women were primarily expected to fulfill roles as wives and mothers, emphasizing their responsibilities in the domestic sphere.
2. **Limited Legal Rights**: Women had few legal rights and were often under the authority of their male relatives, which restricted their autonomy and decision-making.
