The unique role of women in Shetland society is highlighted, showcasing their dominance in family, economy, and culture for 200 years. With men often absent, women became the backbone of their communities, shaping a distinct identity of liberation that predated organized feminism. This exploration reveals how these women not only maintained their families but also influenced cultural narratives in this isolated island group.
