- During the reign of Queen Victoria, a
woman's place was in the home, as

sufficient emotional fulfilment for females.

Since early in the 19th century the role of mother had been idealised.
Motherhood was no longer simply a reproductive function, but was
imbued with symbolic meaning. Domesticity and motherhood were
portrayed as sufficient emotional fulfilment for women.
