We are talking here about the cult of true womanhood or cult of domesticity. The victorian ideology describes women role and behavior as being proper, seen not heard, in the domestic sphere, taking care of the kids as a mother and a wife, very chaste, covered and reserved. This same code of honor placed white women on a pedestal while giving away black women to a life of slavery and sexual exploitation. However, there were 2 sets of women barred form cult of true womenhood: poor women, because they worked outside of home and black women, who were not even considered full women. To conclude, women were meant for the home, away from all the influences of business and public affairs. Women were not fit for hard labor, the political life, or the business world.
