Writing Assignment - Malleus

Give an example of why the authors of the Malleus Maleficarum believe women are more prone to witchcraft than men. How does the fact that the authors are inquisitors whose job is finding witches limit the value of this source? In other words, can we assume that everyone held the same beliefs about women?
