In the Puritan church, women's voices were often silenced due to patriarchal beliefs that viewed men as the spiritual leaders. Women were expected to be submissive and follow the authority of male figures in religious matters. This led to limited opportunities for women to speak, teach, or hold leadership roles within the church.
