Wives, in the 19th century were treated as a figure that was to bear children and stay in the homestead, tending to the children and cooking, cleaning, and were expected to be domesticated in every aspect of running a household but were not to speak back to their husbands and were not allowed to have a career.
This was different in other parts of the world.
A great example of how a husband might treat their wife is in the dramatic story of "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. This is where John's wife has just born a child and is having- what today is known as- postpartum depression. He is a physician and after seeing another doctor decided that she needs to be put to bed rest, so while their home is being renovated he takes her to a mansion in the country where he thinks it will be better for her. John confines her to an old nursery room (without her baby) and she is to stay there for about 2-3 months. The room is lined with ugly yellow wallpaper which is an abhorrence to her but later as her mental status changes becomes a fascination and then she becomes a victim of her own obsession. Was this all John's fault? Was this wise of him? Do you think he loved her, truly?
Well I'd tell you but if your a Man, you'd die laughing at how ridiculous it would sound, and if your a Woman, you would vow to kill the first Man you saw to pay back men for being subjected to such outrageous Bullsh*t for so long. It was unbelievably stringent and suppressing.
