Does the Bible mention women?

:)
Yes, but most often as chattels. Occasionally a woman is given almost equal importance to a man - say in Acts 5.
However, the Bible was produced by cultures which did not accord equal status to women. This is common to the scriptures of most religions and, to be fair, to most pre-C20 literature.
