"You have slept out of your place, you have rather bine a Husband than a Wife and a preacher than a Hearer,

and a Magistrate than a Subject%26quot;.





This quote supports the idea that the Puritan authorities:





a) allowed divorce when it could be proved that the wife had not been submissive to her husband.





b) saw Anne Hutchinson as a threat because she challenged traditional gender roles.





c) believed Anne Hutchinson to be a threat because she owned her own business.





d) believed Anne Hutchinson to be a valuable asset to the community.%26quot;
%26quot;You have slept out of your place, you have rather bine a Husband than a Wife and a preacher than a Hearer,
Probably “b” as Anne Hutchinson assumed a traditionally male role of preacher and leader at a time such things were not only unheard of but forbidden.
%26quot;You have slept out of your place, you have rather bine a Husband than a Wife and a preacher than a Hearer,
The answer is B Hutchinson committed the cardinal sin of %26quot;not knowing her place%26quot; in a patriarichal society, anathema to men and women alike
