I would not live in Williamsburg because there is no religious freedom there, so everyone there has to go to the Church.
The second reason I would not want to live there is because there are slaves and they treated them badly like they were not even people
The last reason I would not live there is because girls don’t have an equal education as boys. Girls were thought of a s just people doing chores in the house all day and sewing. Girls only learned stuff that they needed to do in the house instead of actual things you need to to in life

In my opinion no, I would not like to live in colonial Williamsburg because there wasn’t fair education in school so that technically meant that men and boys were the only ones to actually have a future. Also in church people technically had a seating order and that wasn’t fair and slaves didn’t even have education and there was no school for girls that are slaves.

Most slaves worked on plantations, but some of the slaves did housework. Some slaves had jobs like shoemaking or blacksmithing.

Education in Williamsburg differed from today because the one in Williamsburg was built only for boys.

The social life in Williamsburg was usually in Releigh Tavern. This place was for colonial men to have social time with others after hard work. The starter for food was peanut soup. This was a dish most people liked and was popular. The main course was usually shepherds pie. Everyone liked this meal, and even I like it too. After this 2 course meal, the men occasionally sang songs, had balls, or fancy dances. They usually drank beer, or wine. The tavern was not only one room, there were other rooms too. That included game rooms. Men played cards, dice, or board games. Different people met at different tavern. Craftsmen at one, rich at the other. Releigh tavern opened in about 1717, the same year Westborough was founded.

In that time and place, the college of William and Mary was a school for boys, and boys only. Unlike today, schools have different cultures and genders. Only a certain age: 12+, could attend the school. Although, today you can start school at age 5-6. In those days, at least one-hundred people attended. But in this time, many schools have over 400, if it is a small school it might have less, but the college of William and Mary was big. Like the 50s and 60s, there was segregation between boys and girls. While a boy was attending this ^^, girls went to Dame School, and did not have the same right as boys.
