here's something for the whole "women not fighting" actually, living in the squalor of medieval peasantdom things like that got forgotten, what would usually happen during a raid (take a raid from the scottish border reavers) would be that the men go out with the best weapons (ie. a hatchet) and get whatever livestock, stores or farming equipment into their houses whilst the women would grab the nearest thing to hand (pitchforks, table knives etc.) and grab the children or elderly people. Naturally the first line of defence would be the men but then it would fall to the male children and women to defend the home.
