SPINSTER
/ˈspin(t)stə/ noun derogatory • dated
Traditionally, a spinster was a woman who spun thread or yarn for a living - a skilled and vital role in communities before industrialisation. Over time, the word took on a negative connotation, used to describe unmarried women beyond the conventional age of marriage. Yet its roots lie in independence, craftsmanship and self-sufficiency - women who made their own way through skill and creativity.
