How did cultural trends in the Roman Empire surrounding the role of women effect Rome's political structure, and/or vice-versa?

I'll be beginning a large research project at my university in the coming days. As an Anthropology student, I hold a very strong interest in how cultural shifts effect other things, and how those things will, in turn, turn around to change those very same cultural trends. So I thought this would be a fitting topic of study.

I won't ask you to do all my research for me, but this is a fairly large topic, and I would really appreciate some tidbits of information to get me started and to push me in the right direction.

(If you have any pointers on some online resources I can use to further my research, that would be greatly appreciated as well!)
