No, Paul is addressing all Christian women, whether single, married, or widowed. He is stating a general principle to be applied in all churches, and he has also provided the reasons.
To further support this passage, we have 1 Corinthians 14:34:
Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
Unless Christians are prepared to take all passages pertaining to the distinct roles of men and women within the home and within the local assembly, all we will end up with is spiritual confusion. And spiritual confusion comes from the Adversary.
Paul gives us the reason why women may not preach, teach or usurp authority with the local church, and it must be spiritually discerned. It will make no sense to the unbeliever or the natural man, but we are told that it is because Eve disobeyed God by submitting to Satanic deception, Christian women may not take on the role of elders (who are the preachers and teacher and leaders).
Some people may say "Why should Eve's disobedience affect us today?" Well the fact of the matter is that Adam's disobedience affects the whole human race today (Rom 5:12 and following), so we should not be surprised if Eve's disobedience impacts on women today.

A woman is to keep silent in the church, simple.
Pastors And Deacons Are To Be Married Men, Of Good Report, Ruling Their Own Houses Well.
1 Timothy 3:1-13KJV
3 This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8 Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
11 Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
A woman is to remain silent in the Church service, at no time within the Church does a woman exercise authority over the man.
1 Timothy 2:11-14KJV
11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
1 Corinthians 14:33-35KJV
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
A woman is to obey and love her husband and family, be a keeper at home, simple.
Titus 2:3-5KJV
3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
