Or even, when did they even realize that there is Land and people dwelling in them beyond the Sea surrounding them, to talk of having regards or respecting them?

This is grotesquely overstated.
The vast majority of women would not have possessed the strength to contend with men in battle, and would have been giving birth instead of fighting, in all but the most desperate of circumstances.
There were female samurai. Some even fought men-after their men had been killed-and posed only a very small threat to the invaders, even when using bows and muskets.

Women need to remain in their sphere, where they are suited.

Of course this might be because female bodies were mistaken as male because they had armor weapons and other things with them and of course women couldn’t be warriors. It looks like women regularly went with men to plunder, create settlements and fight alongside the men. Much of this information is just being on Earth recently so I hope you’re able to update your article. I also wanted to let you know that I enjoyed your article very much.
