I believe that Miller's treatment of women was a satire of the puritanism that was dated back to that time. It was believed that women's main role was to reproduce, pray, and to understand that their place in their family monarchy was under the husband. They were looked upon a lustful, sinful, and an unwanted temptation to men. I read a quote the stated, " It is believed that the soul had two parts, the immortal masculine part, and the mortal feminine part."

Arthur millers treatment of women in The Crucible?
Women in The Crucible were treated very poorly, simply because of their gender.If you were a woman you were automatically assumed to have something to do with witchcraft. In all of the trials, majority were women. The teenagers in The Crucible were over trusted and had entirely too much power. They accused anyone and anything in their sight. They knew they could get away with it, because the judge didn't want to make a fool of himself and make it as if he hung people for no reason. He didn't want to be wronged. Not only were women persecuted during this time because of superstition, but it was colonial times (1600-1700s) so women weren't exactly equals with the men. Abigail Williams is able to gain lots of power by manipulating the society's fear of witchcraft. So basically, women are kind of pushed around and blamed for being witches without good reason.
