WRITE a brief response paper (about 3 pages or 600-750 words, typewritten) that takes a position on the main question: Why were women in Salem more likely than men to be both the accused and the accusers?

You can also consider any or all of the following:

What conditions, behaviors or characteristics would target a woman for accusation?
What conditions, behaviors or characteristics motivated the women and men who accused them?
Why would some women resist the accusation and others confess to witchcraft?
Under what circumstances would a man be included among the accused?
