Social Status
Women were not necessarily viewed as in a social class, rather in whatever social class their husband was in. They would stay home and take care of children and cook and in some cases help their husbands with work.
View of Women
Women were considered properties of the men. Before marriage, they had to listen to their fathers and brothers. After marriage, they are the properties of their husbands. But before of China's hierarchy, the sons adhere to their mothers even though in social practice, mother's technically have less power than their sons.People were taught that mothers should be respected and that a woman's duty was to have a son.
