How did the English women before the Tudor times get treated?

Women for several thousand years (and in Tudor times) have been treated as property and chattel. They had no rights. It is only in modern history that women have gained any rights and still today they only make .77 cents on the dollar to a man. Women couldn't own property, have a bank account, own a business, attend college/schools, or decide who they would marry. In the United States women did not have the right to vote until 1920 and it wasn't until the passage of Title Nine of the civil rights act in 1965 that they could have their own car insurance, credit card, or bank account without the husband signing off on it. Even as late as 1991 a woman had to have her husband sign for car insurance or she couldn't be a fighter pilot in the military. Out of 535 people in Congress, today, only about 10% are women. The history of women and children as been one of abuse and lack of civil rights through out history.
