Of course women did that. They were no better or worse than us.

First, they didn't wear underpants like we do. They were crotchless and so they could do their business without getting completely undressed. Pants like we wear didn't become popular until around WWI.

Second, there was no central heating yet so shit was cold. Your body gets cold just sitting. Anyone who has camped or even been out in the winter sitting knows your ass freezes and nothing feels so good as warm fire on it.

Lastly, catching your dress on fire by getting to close to the fire or by a stray ember was a real threat. Women died that way because it's not like you could just pull off your clothing. Keeping your dress away from the fire was important.

But OP isn't questioning whether or not women as a group did that, they're questioning whether it's in character for one specific person would do it.

I think it's reasonable to read OP as implying that women didn't do it, given that their example of people doing it specifies that it was men who did it

The secret says that usually it's men doing it, not that only men do it, and in fact names one specific female character that they don't believe would do it. Nothing is said about women as a group. I don't think your interpretation is reasonable, actually.
