How does the poem "The Lady of Shalott" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson convey the position of Victorian women?

It show us that Victorian women were not objects of desire or sexual preference, but of manners and behavior. They were respectable and always behaved properly because that was the spirit of the time. We can see that in Lady Of Shalott's behavior.

I believe the answer is: Most Victorian woman were restricted to their homes

Pay attention to these lines:

She left the web, she left the loom,

She made three paces thro' the room,

She saw the water-lily bloom,

She saw the helmet and the plume,

She look'd down to Camelot.

Out flew the web and floated wide;

The mirror crack'd from side to side;

"The curse is come upon me," cried The Lady of Shalott.

The line above describe the struggle and sadness that experienced of The lady of shallott. All of her day is limited to being in front of mirror focusing on maintaining her physical appearance while unable to fulfil her other desire outside.
