Can women take part in combat activities?
Yes. Lothene, and most of the larger re-enactment societies in the UK allow women members to take part in combat training and displays. For public displays women fighters should dress as men, unless they are playing a specific role such as townswomen fighting in a seige. There are historical examples of women warriors, but the majority of them wore men’s clothing to fight in, either as a disguise or for convenience.
