👉 The term "bondswoman" is a play on words that refers to a woman who is married and has children. This phrase comes from the 19th century, when it was used to describe women who were not in a traditional marriage relationship but had children and were likely living with their husbands or partners. The term was often used to express the idea of a woman who was financially independent and could be considered as "a bondswoman" rather than being married to her husband.
