15.

This is a scold's bridle. This device was used before and during the Revolutionary period to punish women for fighting with their husbands or for gossiping. How does the existence of this device explain Angelica's stance? Select all that apply.

a)

Women were expected to obey their husbands without talking back, which is not a sign of equality.

b)

Women were expected to avoid disagreements with their husbands; disagreements are normal and resolved with mutual respect between equals.

c)

It was fine to socialize as a woman, as long as the social behavior did not offend males; giving males control over women's friendships and information shared between them is not allowing them to be equal.

This device punishes women for having a voice. If all men (and women) are created equal, they all have the right to voice their opinions and share their thoughts.
