Best Answer

Shakespeare lived in the time of the Renaissance. During the Renaissance, women could be glovers, butchers, leather-workers, goldsmiths, iron-mongers, cutlers, and wool merchants. Sometimes, if a craftsman died, his wife could either take his place in business or help to watch over it. So, yes, women did work.
