Evangelical Protestant and Catholic laywomen in Ulster, through their publications and written records, wrote glowingly of "women's place" as being subservient to that of men. "Women's place" was an honourable one because it entailed self-sacrifice. While Catholic and Protestant discourses on the "ideal" Christian woman would seem to be at variance their images of the "ideal" Christian woman were essentially the same. This article examines the arguments put forward within Catholic and Protestant religious publications regarding women's place in society. Each group argued that the other was fundamentally anti-woman and anti-family. However, for Catholic and Protestant women female piety was seen as essentially domestic, and their expectations of women's domestic destiny were the same. | |
